Instead, Calus had [[Gahlran, the Sorrow-Bearer]] wear the Crown in an attempt to command the Hive; only to trigger Savathûn's enchantments that drove Gahlran insane and unleashed the Hive within the [[Leviathan]]'s [[Menagerie]]. Gahlran's terror was only short-lived as Calus had him put down by a raid team of [[Guardian]]s with the aid of Savathûn's magic and the Crown retrieved to be cleansed of the witch's wards. | Instead, Calus had [[Gahlran, the Sorrow-Bearer]] wear the Crown in an attempt to command the Hive; only to trigger Savathûn's enchantments that drove Gahlran insane and unleashed the Hive within the [[Leviathan]]'s [[Menagerie]].
