Following the [[Nightmare]] events on the Moon, Eramis would lead a new House of Fallen from the former Houses of Devils, Wolves and Dusk. According to a report by [[Praxic Order|Praxic]] [[Warlock]] [[Aunor Mahal]], Eramis and her followers were later found to be investigating a dangerous artifact or entity on an "extra Reef territory" codenamed "[[Niflheim]]"; the report does not clarify the identity of this location, but context suggests it is likely [[Europa]]. The report also indicated that [[Variks, The Loyal|Variks, Kell of Judgement]] was among the group, either as a co-conspirator or a prisoner.<ref name="Rim"/>

Eramis visited the Moon herself, fighting her way through an army of the [[Hive]] in order to commune with "the black arrow" ([[Pyramid (Luna)|the Pyramid]]). Armed with the new power of [[Stasis]], Eramis rallied several Fallen Barons to lay the foundation of a new house on [[Europa]], also referred as "Niflheim"<ref name="Rim"/>. They dismantled multiple Fallen hideouts across the Solar System and used the ruins of human Europan colony of [[Eventide]] to build [[Riis-Reborn]], the first and only Fallen city since the fall of their old homeworld of [[Riis]].
 
The first Barons to join Eramis' Dark Council were her old comrades-in-arms from the House of Devils: [[Phylaks, the Warrior]] and [[Kridis, Dark Priestess]]. The three of them used to be working as a team on the [[Cosmodrome]] and fought together against Guardians in the [[Battle of the Twilight Gap]]<ref name="The Nightmare">'''Bungie (2020/11/10)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: [[Beyond Light]]'', ''[[Lore]]:[[Lore:The Once-Shipstealer|The Once-Shipstealer]] - [[Lore:The Once-Shipstealer#V. The Nightmare|V. The Nightmare]]''</ref>. Another addition to the Council, [[Praksis, the Technocrat]], was a former member of the House of Wolves who had been confined in a cell next to that of Eramis in the [[Prison of Elders]]. They used to have long nighttime talks that influenced Praksis' way of thinking<ref name="The Prisoner">'''Bungie (2020/11/10)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: [[Beyond Light]]'', ''[[Lore]]:[[Lore:The Once-Shipstealer|The Once-Shipstealer]] - [[Lore:The Once-Shipstealer#I. The Prisoner|I. The Prisoner]]''</ref>. [[Atraks-1, Fallen Exo|Atraks, the Wildcard]], was meant to represent the younger generation of the Fallen, those who were born after the [[Whirlwind]] and never knew any other home but the Solar System<ref name="The Wildcard">'''Bungie (2020/11/10)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: [[Beyond Light]]'', ''[[Lore]]:[[Lore:The Once-Shipstealer|The Once-Shipstealer]] - [[Lore:The Once-Shipstealer#XIII.

Their invitations to Europe were answered by more veterans of past wars and remnants of Fallen houses, including the disgraced Archon of Wolves [[Aksor, Archon Priest]], infamous Fallen mercenary [[Taniks, the Scarred]]<ref name="The Scarred">'''Bungie (2020/11/10)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: [[Beyond Light]]'', ''[[Lore]]:[[Lore:The Once-Shipstealer|The Once-Shipstealer]] - [[Lore:The Once-Shipstealer#XIV. The Scarred|XIV. The Scarred]]''</ref> and the last scribe of the House of Judgment, [[Variks, The Loyal]]. While other members of the Dark Council despised Variks as a traitor, Eramis accepted him as a way to draw more [[Reef]] Fallen to her own house<ref name="The Council">'''Bungie (2020/11/10)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: [[Beyond Light]]'', ''[[Lore]]:[[Lore:The Once-Shipstealer|The Once-Shipstealer]] - [[Lore:The Once-Shipstealer#VIII.
