Eris, Omar, and Toland were separated from Eriana and Sai soon after Vell's demise. As they moved through the tunnels, Eris told them that she would feel [[Eyes of Crota|something]] watching them. Toland explained that those were Crota's eyes, leading the Guardians to be sacrificed to wake Crota by draining their Light. Eris berated him for holding onto his secrets like weapons and asked if he meant to damn them all. Toland told his secrets were weapons and that they could use them to complete their mission, directing her and Omar to hunt the Eyes of Crota, kill them, and then follow their draining Light to where Crota waited.<ref>'''Bungie (2014/12/9)''', ''[[Destiny]]: [[The Dark Below]], PlayStation 4, Activision Blizzard, [[Grimoire]]: [[Grimoire:Enemies/Exalted_Hive#Eyes_of_Crota|Eyes of Crota]]''</ref> This plan also failed, and Eris was separated from Toland and believed Omar to be dead after another encounter with the Hive. As she skulked in the shadows of the tunnels to avoid the Hive, she heard screams from below and followed them into the darkest chambers of the Hive, where she saw that Omar had been captured by a [[Wizard]] called the [[Heart of Crota]]. Eris watched in horror as the Wizard flayed the Light from her fellow Hunter and used it to feed newly spawned Thrall. After seeing this, Eris believed Omar to be dead when actually, his soul was transferred into a [[Hive]] bug that she would later use to create [[Xenophage]] for the [[Young Wolf]].<ref>'''Bungie (2014/12/9)''', ''[[Destiny]]: [[The Dark Below]], PlayStation 4, Activision Blizzard, [[Grimoire]]: [[Grimoire:Enemies/Exalted_Hive#Heart of Crota|Heart of Crota]]''</ref> | Eris, Omar, and Toland were separated from Eriana and Sai soon after Vell's demise.

With the rest of the fireteam dead and her Ghost drained of Light and eventually perishing as well, Eris was left alone in the depths of the Hive's warrens. With little option, Eris held the bone of an [[Ahamkara]] she kept since the Great Hunt that began to whisper, guiding her way through the lunar tunnels. Against all odds, she managed to survive in the Hellmouth's shadowy warrens for years using their dark tactics against them, despite her previous concerns about wielding weapons of Darkness. She lost her eyes to the Hive but replaced them with those of an [[Acolyte]], the third eye included.<ref>'''Bungie (2019/6/4)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: [[Season of Opulence]], PlayStation 4, Activision Blizzard, Item Description: [https://www.ishtar-collective.net/entries/opulent-scholar-hood Opulent Scholar Hood]''</ref> Eris learned much about the Hive, its hierarchy, and how to wield some of their magic.<ref name= "Crota's Bane">'''Bungie (2014/12/9)''', ''[[Destiny]]: [[The Dark Below]], PlayStation 4, Activision Blizzard, [[Grimoire]]: [[Grimoire:Allies/Tower_Allies#Crota.27s_Bane|Crota's Bane]]''</ref> She also had access to a copy of Toland's journal, which aided her greatly in her staying alive in the warrens and expanding her knowledge of the Hive.<ref>'''Bungie (2015/9/15)''', ''[[Destiny]]: [[The Taken King]] Playstation 4, Activision Blizzard, [[Lost to Light]]''</ref> | With the rest of the fireteam dead and her Ghost, [[Brya]] drained of Light and eventually perishing as well, Eris was left alone in the depths of the Hive's warrens.

Following the containment of the Nightmares, Eris Morn would provide what expertise she could as the Guardians worked with Mithrax and the Drifter in gathering the Pieces of [[Nezarec]] before Eramis and the Old Crews could. She would correspond with the Drifter a few times after he made her a gift but also provided a brief lecture to [[Eido]], Mithrax's daughter and House Light's scribe, on the nature of both the Light and Darkness, specifically that neither are the singular source of knowledge and truth. | Following the containment of the Nightmares, Eris Morn would provide what expertise she could as the Guardians worked with Mithrax and the Drifter in gathering the Pieces of [[Nezarec]] before Eramis and the Old Crews could.

Despite the Vanguard rallying their forces and allies to protect the Traveler, the Black Fleet returned with its master, The Witness, and managed to subdue the Traveler. Along with the Fleet included The Witness's latest Disciple, Calus and his [[Shadow Legion]]. Though the combined Coalition fought hard, the Guardian and Osiris traveling to [[Neptune]] to prevent Calus from acquiring an artifact called [[The Veil]], they nonetheless failed as The Witness used the Veil's power to create a gateway upon the Traveler, granting the entity what it needs to enter the Traveler. | Despite the Vanguard rallying their forces and allies to protect the Traveler, the Black Fleet returned with its master, The Witness, and managed to subdue the Traveler.

Though the Vanguard made efforts to follow the Witness, each one failed. However, upon Titan's return and reuniting with Deputy Commander Sloane, they learned from the rogue Worm [[Ahsa]] that the only one who may know of a possible way to pass through the gateway is the Witch Queen herself. Realizing that they would have to allow Immaru to bring back their most devious of foes, the Vanguard felt they had no other choice since their options were already severely limited. Reaching out to Savathûn's Ghost and stating their terms, Immaru countered with a bargain of his own: the Witch Queen anticipated that the Guardians would need her help and has the answers they may need, but first, they must deal with her sister, Xivu Arath, for good. Despite the terms, Ikora and Eris agreed, with the latter creating a relic called the [[Acolyte's Staff]] to help the Guardian's weave the Hive's spells and reveal paths as Immaru guided them. However, in a recording the Witch Queen left behind within a secret location within Savathûn's Throne World, [[Savathûn's Spire]], they cannot confront the Hive God of War head-on, for Xivu Arath feeds off of all conflict. Only a Hive God of equal strength could possibly defeat Xivu Arath, under the rules of the Sword Logic. | Though the Vanguard made efforts to follow the Witness, each one failed.

Understanding that only she can become the Hive God needed to defeat Xivu Arath, Eris Morn began preparations for a ritual to transform herself. Ikora firmly speaks against this plan, fearing what it will do to her. Eris Morn plainly states that there is no other way to defeat Xivu Arath, for a continued stalemate with the War God is not feasible. Only leeching from the Hive's tithe system, with the Guardian serving as her acolyte, would Eris become strong enough to defeat Xivu Arath. The ritual began, and speaking the Worm Gods' names, Eris's form contorts, Hive chitin covering her body, until she became an entity akin to the Hive. As the new Hive God of Vengeance, Eris directed the Guardians of the Vanguard to begin collecting their tithes by using the ritual sites beneath Savathûn's Spire, the [[Altars of Summoning]]. Through the tithes collected by Guardians, Eris Morn began feeding, slowly growing in strength. | Understanding that only she can become the Hive God needed to defeat Xivu Arath, Eris Morn began preparations for a ritual to transform herself.

Eventually, after many weeks of tithing, Eris Morn calls the Guardian to her Athenaeum, telling them that it was time to return to the Witch Queen’s Oubliette and perform a ritual that would allow Eris to directly challenge the Hive God of War. Once there, Immaru attempts to run away, believing that this plan would end disastrously, however, Eris forces him to stay, saying that he would either witness their triumph, or die as one of them. Opening the Altar of The Sword, the Guardian enters the ritual space and is immediately forced to fight Xivu Arath’s champion, [[Leviathan-Eater, Bane of the Ammonites]]. After managing to defeat the Hive champion, Eris Morn reveals her true plan. By having Immaru resurrect the Witch Queen, Eris would then slay her once more, gaining all of her power, eons and eons of hoarded lies and deceit, making her the most powerful Hive God to ever exist. Using this power, instead of finishing the ritual and challenging the War God, Eris uses her newfound power to sever Xivu Arath’s connection to her Throne World and banish her from it, making her mortal and able to be killed. Eris then collapses to the ground, no longer the Hive God of Vengeance. | |||
Afterwards, Savathun is resurrected once again, laughing and claiming that she deserved that, and she delights in learning that Eris has managed to make Xivu mortal. Ikora then confronts Savathun regarding her promise to show the Vanguard how to enter the portal, but Savathun merely says that they already know how, as she had just shown them. Ikora threatens Savathûn, and the Witch Queen claims that Ikora doesn’t have the power to take her on, but the Guardian butts in, saying they did. With a sigh, Savathûn offers a peace offering, her faithful First Ghost Immaru would stay in Vanguard custody willingly and could be crushed at anytime if the Vanguard felt that Savathûn was plotting against them. With that, the Witch Queen flees, laughing and leaving the four more confused than ever. | |||
