Not long after completing her plan, Eris Morn, back in human form, informs the Guardians following the ritual. Savathûn had kept her end of the bargain by informing Ikora of the secret the Vanguard needs to pass through the portal upon the Traveler. Further, as part of a peace offering, the Witch Queen was allowed to return to her Throne World but the Vanguard would not only be allowed to have the Guardians continue to venture into her domain but also take custody of Immaru, thereby allowing the Guardians to destroy her connection to the Light should they believe Savathûn is endangering humanity. Ikora and Eris agreed to the terms, citing that while keeping both Hive Gods alive would be a risk, the Warlock Vanguard believed that the Witness must be their priority. In addition, Ikora believes that at least with Savathûn, they have her connection to the Light in their hands and with Xivu Arath, she is now rendered vulnerable after being banished from her Throne World, thereby making her more open to being confronted. Further, the Guardians continue to partake in the Altars of Summoning with Ikora's permission, as doing so prevents Savathûn from acquiring tithes which would further her experiments, though the Witch Queen would continue to comment and taunt them on their efforts.

Later on, though the Guardians completed all the trials of the Imbaru Engine, they return after the Witch Queen mentioned leaving something for them in it. Entering the Engine and prevailing against the various puzzles and tricks in their path, the Guardians find what Savathûn had left them: a pure Ahamkara egg. Believing the egg may have been from Riven's clutch and that it was in the Witch Queen's possession leaves Ikora and Eris stunned but begin to debate on what to do with it. Eris believes they should destroy the egg, due to her past experiences with the Ahamkara but Ikora believes they should bring it back to the Athenaeum for study, believing that the wish-granting creature may be what the Vanguard needs to pass through the Witness's gateway. After some convincing, Eris agrees but after the Guardian brings the egg back to the Athenaeum to be secured, they recall a strange pattern on Savathûn's wings after she had been resurrected. Bringing their finds to Eris, she concludes that the pattern is the "wish" they need. Knowing of the Ahamkara's notorious nature to twist and subvert the intention of the wishes they grant, Ikora gathers all available knowledge on them and consults with the [[Wall of Wishes]] within the Dreaming City, wanting to ensure that the wish they make to save humanity will be impeccable.
