The '''Fallen''', known in their own language as the '''Eliksni''', are an insectoid alien species, infamous for being notorious scavengers and raiders. The Fallen are remnants of a mighty civilization that had been flourishing under the [[Traveler]]'s grace until an apocalyptic event called the [[Whirlwind]], much akin to humanity's [[Golden Age]] and [[Collapse]]. The [[Traveler]] fled, leaving the survivors behind, but after many centuries, the Fallen found her once again in the [[Solar System]].

With Eramis's efforts thwarted, Xivu Arath's Hive began to pull back but would continue to cling to Europa, as the Salvation Kell would also continue to have her House battle the Guardians but she has begun to grow more and more weary of the fighting and of how her people are being made into "puppets" of the Witness. Yet, despite her enemies' calls to abandon her crusade, Eramis refuses to.

====Banner of War====
With the return of Titan, the members of the House of Dusk who remained on the moon after it was [[Taken]] by the [[The Witness|Witness]] had now fallen to madness in [[Xivu Arath, God of War|Xivu Arath's]] service. They would come into conflict with Guardians attempting to retrieve [[Egregore|egregore coral]] and [[Golden Age]] technology at the behest of Deputy Commander Sloane and her new ally, the rogue worm [[Ahsa]]. The [[Servitor]] [[J4W-S, Wrath-Hunter Servitor]] who was turned into a warmongering [[Wrathborn]], would be confronted and destroyed by Guardians to retrieve the [[Egregore|coral]] they needed.
When [[Eris Morn]] transformed into the Hive God of Vengeance to gain enough strength to defeat Xivu Arath, the God of War would send her Wrathborn Fallen forces to invade [[Savathûn's Spire]] and battle with the Guardians for control. [[Golakh, Befouler]] would lead an army of Wrathborn Fallen to assault the Spire, however despite their best efforts, they would be unable to defeat the Guardians.

*The Fallen's history with the Traveler is very much similar to Humanity's, as the Traveler arrived and brought in a Golden Age for both, only for it to be taken away by the Darkness. However, unlike with the Fallen, the Traveler stayed and defended Humanity when the Darkness arrived. The Fallen are likely a prime example of what Humanity would have become if the Traveler had not stayed and created the Ghosts to find and raise the Guardians.
