Oryx's physical form was killed when the Guardian breached his altar and attacked him, but like all Hive Gods, this was only a temporary setback. His soul retreated into his throne realm, located deep within the Dreadnaught. Meanwhile, his Taken, led by his [[Echo of Oryx|Echoes]], continued to harass the system. Once the blights had been removed, the Guardians turned their attention on Oryx and his champions. By overthrowing the [[Court of Oryx]] by killing his minions, they were able to invade Oryx's throne realm. After his closest allies—the [[Warpriest]] and [[Golgoroth]], including his own daughters—were killed Oryx reappeared to fight the Guardian once more, this time as his true Ascendant form, a gigantic version of his physical body. Here he attempted to pull the Guardian Raid team into the Darkness multiple times and kill them, but they were able to use Oryx's own captured Light against him. By slaying his Light-Eater Ogres and Knights, and then detonating the Light they left behind to wound him, the Guardians slew Oryx for good.<ref>'''Bungie (2015/9/15)''', ''[[Destiny]]: [[The Taken King]] PlayStation 4, Activision Blizzard, [[King's Fall]]''</ref>
Oryx was nearly beaten when the Guardian breached his sanctum and attacked him, but like all Hive Gods, this was only a temporary setback. Using his Taken powers, he retreated into the Ascendant realm to recuperate from his injuries. Meanwhile, his Taken, led by his [[Echo of Oryx|Echoes]], continued to harass the system. Once the blights had been removed, the Guardians turned their attention on Oryx and his champions. By overthrowing the [[Court of Oryx]] and killing his minions, they were able to invade deeper into the Dreadnaught. After his closest allies—the [[Warpriest]] and [[Golgoroth]], including his own daughters—were killed Oryx returns to fight the Guardian once more, this time as a gigantic version of his physical body. Here he attempted to pull the Guardian Raid team into the Darkness multiple times and kill them, but they were able to use Oryx's own captured Light against him. By slaying his Light-Eater Ogres and Knights, and then detonating the Light they left behind to wound him, the Guardians slew Oryx for good.<ref>'''Bungie (2015/9/15)''', ''[[Destiny]]: [[The Taken King]] PlayStation 4, Activision Blizzard, [[King's Fall]]''</ref>
