"House Rain lost in Whirlwind. No survivors, but I keep their prophecies."
Variks, the Loyal[1]

The House of Rain was a Fallen House distinguishable by their dark purple cloaks and armor. Regarded as the lowest noble House in the aftermath of the cataclysmic Whirlwind, they were once believed by Variks to have been destroyed, but later revealed they had survived and reached Sol.

History[edit]

Saint-14 defending himself from the House Rain barrage

During the height of Elksini culture, House Rain members once prophesied that a Fallen warrior, whose enemies would "flee or fall", would one day rise to "heal the Houses and make them whole" and be christened the "Kell of Kells".[2] The House was believed destroyed by the Whirlwind that ruined the Fallen civilization,[3] but some members managed to get all the way to Sol.

During the Dark Age, the House arrived on Mercury, where they entered in conflict with the Vex, and encountered a human settlement protected by Saint-14. They destroyed the settlement and killed the survivors, but were unable to kill Saint-14 due to The Guardian's actions.[4]

The House is believed to have been destroyed by Saint-14, in an event called the "The breaking of the Weapons of Rain".[5]

Legacy[edit]

Though the House of Rain was destroyed, their purple banners and symbol would later be adopted by the House of Dusk.
