However the erratic behaviour of Eramis led to her demise after her gauntlets malfunctioned and froze her into a Stasis statue during the battle against the Guardians. Unbeknownst to the [[Vanguard]], Kridis assumed leadership from the shadows following her Kell's defeat. Commander [[Zavala]] sought take advantage of the [[Vex]] incursion within Riis Reborn and sent the Guardians to destabilise the House. However, the Salvation forces held up better than expected against the Vex and Variks suspected someone may have replaced Eramis as the Fallen appear more organised. Later, Kridis is found idle in a Stasis pose and mocked the machine spawns who thought they could defeat her Kell so easily. As the Guardians approached her, Kridis transmatted away and declared that Eramis will rise again and has only transformed. She then deployed Fallen reinforcements and a [[Salvation Walker]] imported from the [[House of Devils|Devils]], but the Guardians defeated her forces and informed Zavala that she got away. Zavala replied that they cannot allow Kridis to rebuild the empire as she slipped through their radar before and enlisted Variks to help with his insider knowledge.<ref>'''Bungie (2020/11/10)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: [[Beyond Light]], PlayStation 4, [[The Aftermath]]''</ref>

Variks believed that Kridis was drawn out of the shadows in search for power as she always had the ambition of being Kell-worthy and provided intel that her followers were collecting remnants of the Dark. The Guardians began collecting artifacts called Flecks of Dark from the Fallen in [[Cadmus Ridge]] to reveal Kridis' plan. Later more Fallen attempted to leave the rule of Kridis as her devotion to the Dark had swayed  them to seek refuge with the [[House of Light]] and [[House of Dusk]]. The [[Archon Aspirant]]s are deployed in [[Eventide Ruins]] to prevent a [[Skiff]] from leaving, but the Guardians would dispose of Kridis' Aspirants and freed the Skiff. Later it is discovered that Kridis was preparing a mysterious ritual by using Darkness.
Variks believed that Kridis was drawn out of the shadows in search for power as she always had the ambition of being Kell-worthy as she wished to triumph where Eramis failed. He provided intel from his spies that Kridis aimed to revive the House and her followers began hoarding remnants of the Dark for unknown reasons. The Guardians collected artifacts called Flecks of Dark from the Fallen in [[Cadmus Ridge]] to provide clues to Kridis' plan. Later more Fallen attempted to leave the rule of Kridis as her devotion to the Dark had swayed  them to seek refuge with the [[House of Light]] and [[House of Dusk]]. The [[Archon Aspirant]]s are deployed in [[Eventide Ruins]] to prevent a [[Skiff]] from leaving, but the Guardians would dispose of Kridis' Aspirants and freed the Skiff. Later it is discovered that Kridis was preparing a mysterious ritual by using Darkness.
 
As the Guardians journeyed to Riis Reborn to investigate her ritual, Variks claimed that unlike Eramis who wished to destroy gods, Kridis choose to search for meaning through the Darkness. Transmissions from Kridis are picked by the radio channels as she preached to her House that Eramiskel was merely asleep and the Darkness had granted her the gift to rouse her slumber. She declared that Eramis had only began as her Kell will unleash a "storm of blood and ice" upon their foes. She further claimed that Eramis transformation was a means by which she was exploring the deeper secrets of the Darkness to return not just as a Kell, but as a god. Kridis declared that the Darkness had granted her visions of Eramis journey and named her as the escort to bring Eramis back to her faithful people. Followers of Kridis such as [[Sniksis, House Salvation|Sniksis]] and [[Piksis, House Salvation|Piksis]] are defeated by the Guardians and later they encounter [[Yamiks Prime]] who was enlisted to guard the pathway due to the importance of recovering Eramis. The [[Prime Servitor]] attempted to fend off the Guardians with reinforcements, but fell at their hands.
 
The Priestess now known as the Dark Priestess, an Archon of the Dark, greeted the Guardians as spawns of the Traitor Machine and asked if they had come to witness the ascension of a god through Eramis. Unlike her counterparts who relied on their gauntlets created by Praksis to wield Stasis, Kridis demonstrated higher mastery of Stasis by crafting a pair of crystal swords and choose to place her Splinters near her mouth. She deployed reinforcements to tackle the Guardians and [[Defiled Servitor]]s provided her a immunity to shield as she blasted them with unique blasts of Stasis projectiles. However despite her powers, Kridis was slain by the Guardians and brought the end to her plans and reign of the Kell of Darkness.<ref>'''Bungie (2020/11/10)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: [[Beyond Light]], PlayStation 4, [[The Dark Priestess]]''</ref>
