The '''Great Ahamkara Hunt''', otherwise known as the ''Great Hunt'', was a massive hunt by the [[Guardian]]s of the [[City]] to exterminate the [[Ahamkara]]. Mysterious creatures rumored to have been brought into existence by the [[Traveler]] during the [[Golden Age]], the Ahamkara were frequently sought out by Guardians for their wish-granting powers. These wishes would always backfire, however, and cause far more harm than good. As valuable as the Ahamkara were, ultimately the [[Vanguard]] deemed them too dangerous to be allowed to live. In addition, the Ahamkara had begun to do something to [[Venus]], no two Guardians could agree upon what they saw, and a [[Warlock]] that had witnessed the event became suicidal.<ref>'''Bungie (2018/9/4)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: [[Forsaken]], Playstation 4, Activision Blizzard, [[Armor_of_the_Great_Hunt_(Hunter)#Mask_of_the_Great_Hunt|Mask of the Great Hunt]]''</ref> The Vanguard warned [[Mara Sov]] of the Ahamkara as well, and asked her to exterminate any Ahamkara that ventured into the Reef. Mara Sov, seeing an advantage in having the [[Riven|only Ahamkara alive]], delivered weapons to the Guardians to assist them in their hunt.

Officially, the Hunt was successful and the vast majority of the Ahamkara species was rendered extinct. However without anyone's knowledge the Nine hid a small number of Ahamkara, who were however killed by them with the arrival of [[Oryx, the Taken King|Oryx]] in the Sol system, for fear that it would corrupt them.<ref>'''Bungie (2018/9/4)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: [[Forsaken]], Playstation 4, Activision Blizzard, [[Lore]]: [[Lore:The_Dreaming_City#Reextinction|Reextinction]]''</ref>
