Following a warning from Drifter about the danger of the Nezarec relics, the crew located the next relic in the hands of a pirate skilled in scrapworking, [[Ithyks, the Scrapworker]]. Traveling to Ithyks's hideout on [[8319 Antiphanes]] within the Themis Cluster, the Guardian avoided Ithyks's many traps before finally reaching her. Despite her army of Shanks and constantly avoiding a direct fight, the Guardian slew Ithyks and claimed the relic. Eido's research on the relics led her to speculate that during the Collapse, Nezarec led the first wave of attack before the Traveler repelled the Witness, causing the Disciple's pyramid to crash on the moon. However, recorded in one of her research logs, she received a surprise message from Eramis, stating that the path she walks is one she can't turn away from and continues to warn Eido to not get in her way.

Ultimately, with one relic left, Mithrax confides in the Guardian that his actions have pushed Eido away and hopes that he will be able to fix the mistakes he made yet worries on what Eramis is intending in corresponding with Eido. Regardless, the Guardian travels to [[16246 Cantor]], where the Lucent Hive have infested the asteroid as they search for the relic. However, as they enter the asteroid, Mithrax and the Guardian discover that Eido had already entered the asteroid, seeking the relic without violence. On the verge of panicking, Mithrax begs the Guardian to reach his daughter as the Hive close in on her. The Guardian manages to clear out most of the Hive, slaying the Lightbearer, [[Hiak'ar, Hoardseeker]]. However, the door to Eido becomes jammed, forcing the Guardian to blast their way in. To their surprise, they discover Eido with the relic but also being protected by Eramis herself, slaying the last of the Hive. Mithrax finally enters and engages with Eramis in a sword duel, with Eido begging them both to stop. Mithrax, using his splicer gauntlet, manages to get the upper-hand over Eramis, disarming and leaving her at his mercy. Eramis goads Mithrax to finish her despite Eido's pleas but the Mithrax does indeed spare her, leaving Eramis to flee upon her ketch. With all the relics gathered, Eido states that her research led her to what the Dark Age humans called the "Curse of Nezarec" and they may be able to harness the energies of the relics but is reluctant to do so, fearing the side-effects it could have.
