Following the [[Vanguard]]'s failed attempt to drive the [[Hive]] from the [[Moon]] in [[The Great Disaster]], Vell learned that Eris, [[Eriana-3]], and [[Toland, the Shattered]] were putting together a small fireteam to aid them in slaying the Hive God [[Prince]] [[Crota, Son of Oryx|Crota]], who slaughtered hundreds of Guardians during the Great Disaster, alongside the [[Hunter]]s [[Omar Agah]] and [[Sai Mota]].<ref>'''Bungie (2014/12/9)''', ''[[Destiny]]: [[The Dark Below]], PlayStation 4, Activision Blizzard, [[Grimoire]]: [[Grimoire:Activities/Raids#Crota.27s_End|Crota's End]]''</ref> Vell tracked them down and volunteered to join the team to avenge those Crota and his Knights slaughtered.<ref name="MofVT"/> Before they departed for the Moon, Vell was questioned by Omar about the plan, noting it seemed unlikely that Crota would be weaker in [[Ascendant realm|throne room]] of his own creation.

When they arrived on the Moon, Vell and the others questioned Toland about the Hive champions they would be facing. As the group discussed the [[Blade of Crota|Blades of Crota]], Vell stated that they sounded like more than regular [[Knight]]s. Eriana said they looked the same, but Vell claimed that would be like calling her a tin can and that they were more than what they appeared. Toland agreed with Vell and called the Blades world-carvers. The group then discussed the thousands of Guardians the Blades and other Hive champions were responsible for killing, and Omar wondered if they were truly prepared for what they would face. Vell told him that he was prepared, and was interested in Eriana's suggestion that they might turn the Blades own swords against them and believed they would lucky to do so.<ref>'''Bungie (2014/12/9)''', ''[[Destiny]]: [[The Dark Below]] Playstation 4, Activision Blizzard, [[Grimoire]]: [[Grimoire:Enemies/Exalted_Hive#Blades_of_Crota|Blades of Crota]]''</ref>

Vell was more subtle than many of his fellow Titans due to his experience at leading refugees through enemy territory and only fighting when necessary. Eris speculated that he may have been too subtle at times, which may have led to his death.<ref name="MofVT"/> Despite this penchant for subtlety, Vell did occasionally show the Titan's typical enthusiastic attitude towards overt displays of extreme physical violence.<ref name="PG"/>
