{{Quote|Six of you went down into the pit. You sought revenge for those I've lost. You slew a god. Crota, with his last breath, he reached out across the night, and now, the night has answered. Oryx, Crota's father. He smells the blood of his son on your hands. We have slain his brood; we have murdered his son! And now, the Taken King comes for us all.|Eris Morn.<ref>[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HQymFddoo9I '''YouTube''' - ''The Taken King Prologue'']</ref>}} | {{Quote|Six of you went down into the pit.

'''The Taken War''' was a major, system-wide conflict fought between the [[Hive]], led by [[Oryx, the Taken King]], and all other races in the system. The war began as a direct result of the [[Guardian]]s slaying Oryx's son [[Crota]], to stop an attempted invasion of [[Earth]]. Oryx brought his fleet to [[Saturn]], and began blighting the system with his [[Taken]] forces. The war continued to rage even after Oryx's death, as the Taken continued to haunt the system and pretenders arose to lay claim to the Taken King's vacant throne. | '''The Taken War''' was a major, system-wide conflict fought between the [[Hive]], led by [[Oryx, the Taken King]], and all other races in the system.
