After Xivu Arath was banished from her [[Black Terrace|throne world]], the Scorn would continue to spread corruption in the Dreaming City. Managing to find a way into [[Riven's Lair]], the [[Locus of Subjugation]] would lead Scorn in an attempt to steal an egg of Riven. But, they would be killed by a Guardian fireteam. | After Xivu Arath was banished from her [[Black Terrace|throne world]], the Scorn would continue to spread corruption in the Dreaming City.

During the Dark Age, a castle belonging to a [[Warlord]] named [[Naeem]] was attacked by the House of Kings, with the Warlord herself being killed in the process. With her dying breath, she wished for vengeance. Many years later, after the Witness entered the Traveler and Xivu Arath was banished from her throne world, the remains of the [[Ahamkara]] [[Hefnd]] would grant this wish after luring the now leaderless Taken to the castle. He fed on their desire for a purpose to corrupt the dead House of Kings into Scorn. Those resurrected in the castle seemed to develop a culture surrounding Hefnd's bones, placing them in shrines across the castle and worshipping Chieftain Totems that held bone fragments within Taken Blights. | During the Dark Age, a castle belonging to a [[Warlord]] named [[Naeem]] was attacked by the House of Kings, with the Warlord herself being killed in the process.

The news of these Scorn on Earth would eventually catch the attention of Fikrul, who has been leading a crew of his own Scorn independent from the Witness after fleeing the Tangled Shore. Aboard a stolen Ketch, he tasked five powerful Chieftains dubbed Knights to bring the Scorn to them before the Witness could claim them. However, the Knights would be broken and fall under the control of Hefnd. They would fight alongside the Dragon's Scorn and the Taken, only to be cut down by a Guardian fireteam sent to investigate the ruins. | The news of these Scorn on Earth would eventually catch the attention of Fikrul, who has been leading a crew of his own Scorn independent from the Witness after fleeing the Tangled Shore.

When the Techeuns pulled the final egg out of the Ley Lines and into the [[Caliginous Expanse]] within the court of Mara Sov, the Scorn would infiltrate the Awoken Queen's court with the purpose of retrieving it. However they would quickly come into conflict with the Guardian, who would slay the Plaguewielders and enter the portal into the Catacombs. It becomes apparent that tho most of these Scorn were raised by the Witness, some of them bear Fikrul's mark. Upon arriving at the Caliginous Expanse, the Guardian engages with [[Elikaa, the Pale Rot]], who was attempting to make a wish using the final egg. Despite it's resilience, it is unable to defeat the Guardian and is slain in a fearsome battle. Successfully retrieving the final egg, the Guardian makes the fifteenth wish to pursue the Witness. Despite their failure to make the wish, the Scorn would continue their assault within Riven's Lair, now being directed and misguided by the agents of Fikrul. | |||
