By the late Golden Age, Henriette found herself concerned for her daughter's safety, feeling that humanity had been lulled into a false sense of security by the Traveler uplifting them. Thanks to her connections, she became aware of an "anomaly," and believed that it was time to help humanity defend itself. With the help of [[Helga Rasmussen]] and [[Yuki Satou]], she became one of the three co-founders of the Black Armory. | By the late Golden Age, Henriette found herself concerned for her daughter's safety, feeling that humanity had been lulled into a false sense of security by the Traveler uplifting them.

At first, she got into arguments with Helga and Yuki over how the weapons were being distributed, fearing that giving the weapons to the masses would do more harm than good. Later on, she argued with Helga over Project Niobe, believing that fusing Exos with Black Armory technology was unethical. However, as the Traveler moved to Earth during the Collapse, she decided to press forward with Project Niobe. | ||

Henriette and her fellow co-founders were forced to hide inside Niobe Labs as the Collapse set upon humanity. After some time, the labs would be attacked by an unknown creature, killing Helga and fatally injuring Adelaide.

Knowing that she was at great risk of death, Henriette made a final entry in her journal as a letter addressed to her daughter. The letter told Ada about herself; how she became an Exo, encouraging her to learn from the founders' successes and missteps, and to continue fulfilling the Black Armory.

For centuries, Ada was distrustful of Guardians due to how cruel and violent Lightbearers were in the past. However, due to losing the Forges and the Kell's Scourge using the Black Armory's wares to unleash chaos across the system, Ada-1 was forced to put feelings aside and allow the Guardians in recovering the Forges, allowing her the means to create Black Armory weapons for them. | ||

Unfortunately, Siviks tore many pages of the Black Armory Papers, forcing Guardians to recover them in order to learn Siviks's plans. After much help from the Guardians in recovering the pages, Ada learned that Henriette was also her mother. Realizing the second chance at life she was given, she vowed to not waste it and was grateful to the Guardians for their part in saving the Black Armory. | |||
