As they traverse the science facilities, the Guardians discovered that the last member of Eramis's inner circle, Atraks, the Wildcard had used the radiolaria from the Vex gate Eramis had activated earlier into activating the Exo conversion machines, turning herself into an Fallen Exo. Now dubbed [[Atraks-1]], the Fallen Exo further used the machine to bring back an old foe, [[Taniks, the Scarred]], now fully a machine. The Guardians battled both throughout the facility, taking them as far as the [[Morning Star]] space station in Europa's orbit. Using the facilities securities against Atraks, the Guardians succeeded in slaying the Fallen Exo. However, their battle forced the station AI into activating it's Nuclear Descent protocol, which would force the station into crashing into Europa, as per Clovis Bray I's wishes to prevent his research from falling into the "wrong hands". However, the nuclear crash would likely destroy Europa itself, forcing the Guardians to disarm the nuclear cores while holding off Taniks Reborn. As the station plummeted towards Europa, the Guardians succeeded in disarming the nuclear cores but were unable to prevent the station from crashing. Taniks pursued the Guardians to the only secure location to survive but was locked out at the last second as the station crashed into Europa. | ||

Forced to battle with the Fallen Exo monstrosity along with other Salvation Fallen that also survived the crash, the Guardians managed to stagger Taniks long enough for them to collect and disarm his cores piece by piece to prevent his nuclear-fueled powers to wipe them in an instant. After a long grueling battle in the burning wreckage, the Guardians finally put Taniks down for good, ending the House of Salvation's ambitions of using Clovis Bray's technology. | |||

Further, their command over Stasis makes Fallen of this House especially dangerous. In addition, with so many different Fallen joining forces under Eramis's banner, their various tactics and technologies give them an edge on the battlefield, almost overwhelming their foes. | ||

It describes the Fallen to have raced across the stars in ''"search of salvation"''. In their desperation the Fallen relied on technology to survive through the use of [[Fallen#Technology|weapons]], [[Ketch|ships]] and [[Servitors]]. Eventually, their need to survive led to the worship of Servitors. This ties into Eramis' speech where she claims the Fallen have been ''"chained for centuries"'' due to their reliance on Servitors and then proceeds to destroy one through [[Stasis]]. | ||
**Eramis's dislike of the Servitors, being made in the image of the Traveler, whom she hates, makes her similar to the [[Scorn]] who despise the Fallen's old traditions. Despite this, she keeps Servitors a part of her forces, albeit "defiled" by [[Stasis]]. | **Eramis's dislike of the Servitors, being made in the image of the Traveler, whom she hates, makes her similar to the [[Scorn]] who despise the Fallen's old traditions.
