When Oryx attacked and started Taking enemy forces ''en mass'' Time chose to stay out of sight, preferring to wait. As Guardians began pushing back the Taken King, however, Time started abducting Taken one at a time. Ostensibly for study nonetheless their true purpose was to reconvert them back into their old selves, reclaiming their soul from the Darkness. They succeeded for the most part with the Taken Fallen, rechristening them Reborn Eliksni. | When Oryx attacked and started Taking enemy forces ''en mass'' Time chose to stay out of sight, preferring to wait.

For the Cabal and Hive, they were little more than mindless animals when converted but displayed loyalty toward them, much as domesticated animals would. Vex were the hardest, for a personality that was once part of a monolithic hive mind now severed to serve evil, reconverting was deemed to be an impossible task until SIVA was recovered from some captured Splicer Devils. With SIVA they discovered they could reprogram the "Taken" Vex away from mindless worship into some measure of independent thought, but without the hive mind. Time solved this by linking them to their Servitor network, utilizing their abilities in service to both Angels and Demons. | For the Cabal and Hive, they were little more than mindless animals when converted but displayed loyalty toward them, much as domesticated animals would.

Nonetheless they were used only in limited numbers, as the ontopathogenic attributes of the Taken were still present and needed constant supervision. | ||

During this time they started making note of a [[Forum:Viruses|rising Taken force]] on Saturn and started marshalling their forces to contain it. Utilizing the Reborn they fought against the Viruses long and hard. This conflict, known as the Time Virus Skirmish, lasted throughout the entirety of the main campaign of ''Destiny 2''. Many were lost but ultimately House Time managed to contain the Taken to Saturn. Unfortunately, with Dominus Ghaul's defeat, the newly deployed [[Forum:Stone Breakers|Stone Breakers]] appeared in the system to finish what the Legion had started. The Guardians, newly revitalized, were able to cut off the Stone Breakers' head, but only enraged them further. | During this time they started making note of a [[Forum:Viruses|rising Taken force]] on Saturn and started marshalling their forces to contain it.
