{{Article quote|Ancient weavers of a once believed bygone era. Ones that were lost, now found and mended. These weavers cannot be allowed to spread the [[Forum:Corruption (element)|corruption]] of Shin'ra and spread chaos with the Weapons of Sorrow.}}

The '''Weavers of Sorrow''' is a [[Hive]] brood (primarily a collective of Hive, [[Taken]], [[Scorn]] and other [[The Witness|Witness]] aligned [[Forum:Fanfic Dread|entities]]) who serve [[Forum:Shin'ra, the Sorrow-Maker|Shin'ra, the Sorrow-Maker]] and are known as the Hive weapon masters. They act as the main antagonists of the [[Forum:Season of Sorrow|Season of Sorrow]], [[Season of the Wish]], [[Into the Light]] and [[Forum:Episode: Dread|Episode: Dread]] while playing minor roles in [[Season of the Risen|Risen]], [[Season of Plunder|Plunder]], [[Season of the Deep|Deep]] and [[Season of the Witch|Witch]]. They are distinguishable for their dark green armor, light green cloth and gray skin. 

After the events of [[The Final Shape]], the Brood's forces were compelled to work against the rest of the remaining forces of the Witness in order to achieve Shin'ra's goals of eternal perfection. 

==History==
===Origins===
The origins of the Weavers date back millions of years ago when Shin'ra joined the Hive. He founded the Weavers as the creators of the Hive's weapons and eventually created the forsaken Weapons of Sorrow, using [[Forum:High Forge|his]] [[Ascendant Realm|Throne World]] as their contemporary lair. Curious Hive would join the ranks of the Weavers, like Zâtrox of the Hidden Swarm, who would be the first of Shin'ra's Court of Sorrow. Upon the creation of his Court, he would establish his line of tribute, which allowed Shin'ra to feed deaths that his own weapons would cause. 

Through the line of tribute, Shin'ra's ranks would begin to swell with many commanders rising up the ranks. At an unknown point, he would carve his own ship from many corpses of Leviathan-type creatures, the Nephilim. His forces would continue on their hunt with the Leviathans, using various [[Tomb Carrier]]s to delve into the seas of various worlds and take the beasts as prisoners. These Hive would become his [[Forum:Celebrant of Shin'ra|Celebrants]]. They would serve a subdivision in the Weavers known as the Cult of Unmaking, evokers of pain and suffering to those that Shin'ra would call an enemy. 

===War against the Tarnished===
His actions would of course put him into the good graces of the Witness, which he would be put into temporary care of the [[The Veil|Veil]]. He would attempt to study the Veil and its primordial Darkness, only to unleash the Weaver's mortal enemies, the [[Forum:Tarnished|Tarnished]]. A war would break out aboard the Maker's warship, which would later lead to the imprisonment of the Tarnished and the banishment of their leader, [[Forum:Mallum, the Scarlet King|Mallum]], from the planes of reality.

Shin'ra would see to it that the Tarnished would stay imprisoned aboard his ship, building what would be known as the [[Forum:The Jade Citadel|Jade Citadel]], a fount of Corruption that would continue to hold the Tarnished at bay. Though banished from all realms of reality, he would continue to commune with his Tarnished servants from within the [[Forum:The Scarlet Temple|Scarlet Temple]].

===Arrival in Sol===
Shin'ra and his brood would arrive in the [[Sol System]] shortly after the return of the [[Black Fleet]]. They would await in the Kuiper Belt for any response from the Witness to make their next move. At an unknown point, Shin'ra would tempt the Fallen of the [[House of Dusk]] to invade the Nephilim, tricking them with new power through Corruption, only to be used as tribute to be fed upon. 

During the events of the [[War of Salvation]], Shin'ra would appoint one of his spawn, [[Forum:Ir Naziith, Spawn of Shin'ra|Ir Naziith]], to recruit Hive within the [[Cosmodrome]] to join the Weavers. Eventually, their plans would be foiled by a newly risen [[Lightbearer]] who would stop Naziith at every turn, burning down Hive strongholds and eventually killing Naziith before she could contact her master. Even through this small inconvenience, Naziith would survive the battle, with her soul escaping into her master's Throne World. 

After Xivu Arath's failure to conjure any more Wrathborn in the [[Reef]] and [[Dreaming City]], Shin'ra would commit to subsuming any remaining Wrathborn and Hive that did not submit to Xivu Arath for his own brood. He would appoint on hmof his High Conjurers, [[Forum:An Irvask, High Conjurer|An Irvask]], to assist him in the conversion of the Wrathborn into tribute and any Hive that skulked in the [[European Dead Zone]] and the [[Moon]] respectively, to be converted to worshiping the Maker. Their efforts would be stopped by the [[The Guardian|Guardian]] who would find out about Shin'ra's recruitment campaign and would temporarily shut it down.

The Guardians would eventually locate the Maker's ship which was held up in the Kuiper Belt, seeking to take out the danger from the source. The Guardians would learn of the newfound power of Darkness through Corruption, taking out some of Shin'r's Taken commanders, however, they were unable to locate the Maker in his massive warship. Seeing how much of a nuisance the Guardians were, Shin'ra would appoint his high-ranking commanders to continue his plan to recruit more Hive, sending [[Forum:Davaj, the Blademaster|Davaj, the Blademaster]] to the Moon, [[Forum:Kramûc, the Huntsman|Kramûc, the Huntsman]] to the [[Tangled Shore]] and [[Forum:Ir Abzûl, the Cryptkeeper|Ir Abzûl, the Cryptkeeper]] to the European Dead Zone to accomplish it.

===Hunting the Court===
The Guardians would return to the Moon to locate Davaj, a powerful [[Vanquisher]] and blademaster of the Weavers. He made the decree that Lightbearers would have to test their own strength before facing them. Using the very swords against the Hive, the Guardians would cut down through Davaj's forces and defenses, killing Davaj with the very blades that he wielded against his enemies. 

Later on, the Guardians would locate the lair of Kramûc, the Huntsman, who retook the lair of [[Enkaar, the Anointed]] in [[Hellrise Canyon]]. They would have to escape the various traps left by the Huntsman, learning that they were the ones being hunted by the expert marksman. Turning his own traps against him, Kramûc would eventually fall to his own hubris and die at the hands of the Guardians. 

Next, they would have to hunt down one of the commanders to the Taken, Ir Abzûl, the Cryptkeeper, who had made her lair deep within the [[Salt Mines]] within the EDZ. Trimming through the Taken that served the Cryptkeeper, they would find the powerful Wizard deep within the Mines, learning that she had constructed an Ascendant Rift to the Nephilim, allowing the Weavers to invade [[Earth]] on its doorstep. Using the Taken's power against her, Ir Abzûl would fall just like her predecessors. 

The Guardians, with their newfound power, would continue to hunt down the remaining members of the Court of Sorrow, eventually taking their slaughter directly to Shin'ra's Warpriest [[Forum:Jirgâth, the Warpriest|Jirgâth]] within his own lair aboard the Nephilim. Making their way through the Tomb Carrier's docking bay, they would find Jirgâth's tower that overlooked the ship's bay. Even with Taken reinforcements, they would turn Jirgâth's command against him, ending Shin'ra's Warpriest.

===Maker's First Defeat===
Seeing how his court fell to the hands of the Guardians, he would issue a challenge to them, showing them visions of the power he personally saw to the creation of, including the Weapons of Sorrow. Determined to take vengeance on those who fell to the corruption of the Hive, the Guardian would make it their mission to take down Shin'ra and end the [[Forum:Corruption's Insurgence|Corruption's Insurgence]].

The Guardians would arrive on the Nephilim to make their way to the Jade Citadel. Through their journey, Shin'ra would commune with them with Corruption, claiming that with his power, he could end all suffering and render the pain given to them by the Light, stating that Corruption was offered to them by Shin'ra who wanted to make them his champion by killing his court. His words would be ignored by the Guardians as they would cut through the Citadel's wardens and Shin'ra's Taken forces, eventually reaching the pinnacle of Shin'ra's throne atop the Citadel. They would battle, eventually leading to Shin'ra temporarily immobilizing the Guardian in a similar manner to the [[High Celebrant of Xivu Arath|High Celebrant]] before him. Unleashing the mighty burst of Corruption, the Maker would fall and his soul would escape to his Throne World. 

===Necrotic Ambitions===
After Shin'ra's supposed defeat at the hands of the Guardians, his right hand, Zâtrox, was committed to conjuring an undead army of Hive slain by the hands of the Guardians in the [[Forum:Pit of Decay|Pit of Decay]] aboard the Nephilim. Kramûc and Ir Abzûl would be revived along with the undead legion of Hive to serve as their loci. His attempts to revive the Weaver commanders would inadvertently alert not only the Guardians, but the House of Dusk, who sought to steal the powers of Corruption for themselves. The Guardians would successfully kill the various Hive and Fallen, in which Zâtrox would use as a battery for tribute to finish his scheme. 

The Guardians would then be tasked by [[Shin Malphur]] and [[Eris Morn]] to find and kill Zâtrox, who was held up in his [[Forum:Zâtrox's Lair|namesake lair]]. Setting up a fireteam, the Guardians would head into the depths of the Nephilim, end the disciples of Zâtrox and kill the Weaver Necromancer. Though, much like [[Nokris, Supplicant to Savathûn|Nokris]] before him, he would survive his encounter through the power of Necromancy, and would flee deep into the Ascendant Plane, continuing to summon forth more undead legions in the Pit of Decay.

===Further Incursions===
Even with the defeat of Shin'ra's Court, their presence would continue to linger. [[Forum:Kaksis, Dusk Archon|Kaksis]], the acting [[Archon]] of the House of Dusk, began to stage the total takeover of the Nephilim from within their lair of [[Forum:Dusk's Rest|Dusk's Rest]]. His forces would stage a major battle against the Weavers which would inevitably bring the attention of the Guardians. They would infiltrate Dusk's Rest and take out the Archon of Dusk and [[Forum:Brakis, Dusk Baron|his]] [[Forum:Xemiks-68|compatriots]], while keeping the Weavers from reclaiming territory in their own vessel. 

Shortly after defeating the Archon of Dusk, the Guardians would learn of another of Shin'ra's schemes. Shortly before his recent death, he ordered his forces to infiltrate the [[Black Garden]] in order to corrupt and sequester [[Vex]] from the [[Sol Divisive]]. The Guardians would enter the Black Garden, finding most of it had decayed due to the power of Corruption. They would break through the Weaver's and Divisive's defenses, even destroying a fully corrupted Hydra named [[Forum:Chronos, Dilating Mind|Chronos, Dilating Mind]]. They would eventually breach into the domain of the [[Forum:The Defiled Mind|Defiled Mind]], finding that the Weavers had already located it and began to corrupt it. Even with its Hive reinforcements, the Guardians would destroy the Axis Mind, putting a stop to another one of the Maker's schemes.

===Abhorrent Alliance===
A year would pass following the greatest defeat that the Weavers had experienced, eventually they would turn their attention to gather more forces under their grander army to continue their great conquest of Sol. 

The end of the [[Lucent War]] would spark their recruitment campaign as the forces of the [[Lucent Brood]] congregated around the Cosmodrome with reliquaries of stolen Guardian Light. In an attempt to sway more Hive under their command, they temporarily allied themselves with the forces of the [[Forum:Abhorrent Brood|Abhorrent Brood]], which had grown during the Weaver's absence within the Cosmodrome. In order to enact this alliance with the Abhorrent Hive, Shin'ra sent several of his emissaries, [[Forum:Xeniith, Ambassador of Shin'ra|Xeniith]], [[Forum:Tulkoroth, Word of Shin'ra|Tulkoroth]], [[Forum:Merax, Celebrant of Shin'ra|Merax]], and [[Forum:Tugorn, Weaving Exemplar|Tugorn]] into the abhorrent depths to make peace with the Abhorrent Brood. 

Their congregation would however earn the eyre of the Vanguard, who detected their massive ritual deep below the Cosmodrome. They would send a Fireteam of six to investigate and put an end to the alliance before peace talks would be made. The failure of the alliance infuriated the brood leaders of the Abhorrent Brood, who demanded that Shin'ra was to repay them for the unnecessary loss of tribute.

===Relics of Nezarec===
At an unknown point, the Witness would employ Shin'ra and his forces to hunt down the Relics of Nezarec alongside the Old Crews under the command of [[Eramis, Kell of Darkness|Eramis]]. [[Forum:Buk'iniir, Ransacker Ogre|Buk'iniir]], [[Forum:Cap'tane, Ransacker Wizard|Cap'tane]] and [[Forum:Pry'vatiir, Ransacker Knight|Pry'vatiir]] would be sent to hunt down the other relics across the Reef and the [[Themis Cluster]]. After various failed attempts to claim the relics, Shin'ra would send a message to Eramis, claiming that she had [[Pirate Hideout: The Lucent Brood|one last chance]] to claim the relics or he would unleash the full wrath of the Weavers upon the [[House of Salvation]]. 

When Eramis retreated from the failed attempt to claim the last relic, Shin'ra would release the Weavers into [[Riis-Reborn]], only to be stopped by the orders of the Witness, who declared that she would suffer a greater pain for her failure. Shin'ra would agree, recalling his forces from Europa. 

===Hunting the Last Worm===

===Return of Io===
Shortly after the failed Taking of Ahsa, the anomalous moon of Jupiter, [[Io]], would mysteriously return from Darkness. Whatever or whoever drew it back into Sol was a mystery, but the Weavers saw it as an opportunity to study the moon and its potential of power. 

The Weavers, under the command of [[Forum:Xurgen, Scourge of Io|Xurgen, Scourge of Io]], saw to the construction of a massive temple that would be known as the [[Forum:Temple of Exultation (location)|Temple of Exultation]] where the [[Tree of Silver Wings (Io)|Tree of Silver Wings]] once resided. The temple itself drew power from the Tree of Silver Wings, not only of its Light, but its Darkness as well. 

The return of Io also drew the attention of the Vanguard, who would send a fireteam of six to investigate the massive Pyramid temple. Climbing up the massive temple and culling through the forces of the Weavers, Shin'ra would intervene, sending in his more elite generals of the Cult of Unmaking, first by sending in [[Forum:Vorgûth, the All Devourer|Vorgûth, the All Devourer]] to trim away the brimming Light of the Tree, [[Forum:Ir Mazleth, the Unholy Silence|Ir Mazleth, the Unholy Silence]] to rewrite the foundations of the Temple, and finally [[Forum:Storgor, the Great Shatterer|Storgor, the Great Shatterer]], who would use the power of the Tree of Silver Wings to once again Take Io and plunge it into the Deep.  

Even with each member of the Cult of Unmaking being cut down by the Guardians, Shin'ra would taunt them, claiming that their efforts were in vein and that his forces would return to reclaim the temple and plunge Io back into Darkness.

===Golden War===
After a culmination of events during Season of the Deep and Season of the Witch, the Witness would make a demand to Shin'ra shortly after the excommunication of Xivu Arath, flood the Dreaming City with corruption before the [[Final Words|last wish]] could be made to [[Riven]]. The Weavers would begin to infest the Dreaming City from the Shattered Throne by adding Corruption into the curse loop. As the Weavers began their invasion, their forces would be locked within the pocket realm by the forces of the [[Forum:Golden Legion|Golden Legion]] who set up blockades in the Reef by orders of their leader, [[Forum:Emperor Zor|Emperor Zor]], instigating the events of the [[Forum:Golden War|Golden War]]. 

The Guardians would be forced to take out the competing forces of the Golden Legion and the Weavers by taking down the Cabal blockades along with their commanders and infiltrating the Dreaming City and putting an end to the corruption by the Weaver's Taken forces. Shin'ra would [[Forum:Azshradat, Obscured by Shin'ra|employ]] [[Forum:Molok, Blunted Edge of Shin'ra|old]] [[Forum:Viraak, Compassion of Shin'ra|commmanders]] of Xivu Arath, resurrected and Taken by the Maker to take out the Guardians and imped their efforts to stop the Weavers from claiming the Dreaming City. 

In the last weeks of the Golden War, the Guardians would successfully put the Golden Legion's command ship, the [[Forum:Aetas Imperium|Aetas Imperium]] out of commission, even if it was only temporary. Shin'ra would send forth the now resurrected [[Forum:Kelgorath, Risen from Bones|Kelgorath]] to finish the corruption process by entering the heart of the Dreaming City in the [[Keep of Voices]], where he would make a last stand against the Guardians and unleash the full power of Corruption against them. He would eventually fall to the Guardians due to his own misuse of Corruption, ending the Weaver's efforts to corrupt and take control of the Dreaming City.

===Battle of Many Fronts===
After the multiple failures against the Guardians, Shin'ra would unleash his full wrath against humanity with an all out [[Onslaught|invasion]] of the [[Last City]], coercing his Hive with the Fallen servants of the Witness and vessels of the Black Fleet as a means to elevate himself as [[Disciples of the Witness|Disciple of the Witness]].

===Weaver's Schism===
Coinciding with the events of [[Operation Ahamkara]], members of the Brood became to break away from the Witness's command, believing that their goal of the [[Final Shape]] goes against that of the Hive's concept of the Sword Logic. Dissenters would begin to arise within Shin'ra's forces, attempting a vie for command to lead the desolating forces.

In truth, Shin'ra himself had already doubted the Witness from the beginning, despite his own elevation as one of its Disciples. He would eventually abandon the Witness once he noticed that inside the Pale Heart, it had become vulnerable and weak, knowing that there were flaws within the Witness's plans.

==Structure==
The Weavers of Sorrow are primarily made up of converted Hive from other broods, most notably the [[Hidden Swarm]] following the events of Beyond Light. Their armor appears like spiked patchwork, with parts of cannibalized flesh like faces used for chest armor. However, progenitors of the Brood exist which don’t share these traits, like [[Forum:Shin'ra, the Sorrow-Maker|Shin'ra]], [[Forum:Storgor, the Great Shatterer|Storgor]] and [[Forum:Zâtrox, the Necromancer|Zâtrox]], all of which were founding members and Ascendants of the Weavers. 

Unlike other broods, the Weavers of Sorrow have chosen to continuously upgrade their technology and weaponry, either by developing new weapons or empowering old ones with Corruption. One of these new weapons, called the [[Forum:Mangonel|Mangonel]] is a "living construct" that fires long arc bolts at targets with high velocity and impact. Another would be the [[Forum:Onager|Onager]], a massive tank like structure that is meant to rival that of the Cabal's [[Goliath Tank]]'s in strength and firepower.

The Brood also doesn't share the naming scheme for Elites and Majors for other Broods like "Revenant" and "Blistered" respectively, instead having "Sanctified" for Elites and "Anointed" for Majors.

===Court of Sorrow===
The Court of Sorrow serves as the leading group of Hive within the Weavers of Sorrow. Each member of the Court of Sorrow possesses detachments of Hive that act as "extensions" of their primary function. The second in command of the Court Zâtrox, possesses a coven of [[Necromancy|Necromantic]] [[Wizard]]s that serve as his enforcers and a "failsafe," in the case if certain members of the Court were to fall, they could easily resurrect them. [[Forum:Jirgâth, the Warpriest|Jirgâth]] serves as the general of the Weavers of Sorrow and commands its near-endless legions of Hive. [[Forum:Ir Abzûl, the Cryptkeeper|Ir Abzûl]] serves as a commander for the armies of the [[Taken]] that serve in the brood's ranks. [[Forum:Kramûc, the Huntsman|Kramûc]] serves as the tracker and hunter of enemies of the brood. Finally, [[Forum:Davaj, the Blademaster|Davaj]] serves as a blade master and field enforcer. [[Forum:Ez'rathrin, Queen Consort|Ez'rathrin, Queen Consort]] serves as the consort to Shin'ra and [[Brood Queen]] of the Weavers.

===Cult of Unmaking===
The Cult of Unmaking serves as personal enforcers and "evokers of suffering" and "pain bringers" for Shin'ra. They were first conceived by Zâtrox to serve as his enforcers, only for Shin'ra to enlist [[Forum:Storgor, the Great Shatterer|Storgor]] as its commander instead of Zâtrox. While a recent member, [[Forum:Xurgen, Scourge of Io|Xurgen]] is most notable for capturing straggling Vex, Cabal and Taken from Io and torturing them for info on the whereabouts of Savathûn following her [[Interference|interference]]. [[Forum:Vorgûth, the All Devourer|Vorgûth]] is notable for eating the convicted and siphoning their life force, making them suffer long and painful deaths. [[Forum:Ir Mazleth, the Unholy Silence|Ir Mazleth]] is notable for singing the most painful of liturgies without the need of an entire choir to destroy mortal minds. Storgor is most notable for being a veteran to bringing pain and suffering onto others and even onto himself. They are only ever deployed on the field in certain scenarios of "utter importance." One such instance would be the protection of the [[Forum:Temple of Exultation (location)|Temple of Exultation]] on [[Io]] which Shin'ra sought to use the [[Tree of Silver Wings (Io)|Ionian Tree]] to enhance the brood's power through the reshaping power of [[Darkness|Resonance]] and terraforming properties of the [[Light]].

 ===Hunting the Last Worm===
-The Weavers would make several attempts to hunt down the last of the Proto-Worms, [[Ahsa]] as a means to make up for their own past failures and to add another leviathan as a trophy. Shin'ra would employ his Celebrants yet again to hunt down the Proto-Worm, only to find out that she had been secured by the forces of the Vanguard and was also being hunted down by Xivu Arath and her forces, in which the former made her presence known through her bellowing voice.
-The Celebrants would unite to conduct a ritual to move Ahsa into the hungry jaws of Shin'ra, only for this ritual to be stopped by one of Xivu Arath's, who successfully took Ahsa to a ritual site so that the God of War could Take Ahsa. The forces of the Coalition would put an end to the ritual, stopping the Horde's and the Weaver's attempts to claim Ahsa for themselves, depriving the Weavers of another leviathan.
