'''Kholks, Taken of Xivu Arath''' was a powerful [[Taken Ogre]] that featured as one of the final bosses of the [[Astral Alignment]] activity, where it attempted to secure the [[Blind Well]] for [[Xivu Arath, God of War]]. Kholks later took part in the assault on the ritual to remove the [[Savathûn's Worm|Worm]] of [[Savathûn, the Witch Queen|Savathûn]], but was defeated for the final time by the [[Guardian]]s.<ref>'''Bungie (2021/8/24)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: [[Season of the Lost]] - [[Mission]]: [[Exorcism]]''</ref>

Kholks is one of the two rotating final bosses encountered in the Astral Alignment seasonal activity in Season of the Lost. They prevent the Guardians from completing the realignment of the [[Ley Lines]], while also trying to capture the Blind Well for their master.

Kholks appears alongside [[Kruutiks, Reefbane]], as a boss in the [[Exorcism]] [[Mission]]. After [[Mara Sov]] and her [[Techeun]]s have begun the ritual and [[Saint-14]] has raised his [[Ward of Dawn]], both of Xivu Arath's minions will appear on the two overlooking points in the far corners of the arena. Multiple [[Taken]] [[Blight]]s will materialize throughout the room. Kruutiks will engage the enemies first, assisted by numerous [[Hive]] forces during the fight, including [[Barrier Knight]] [[Champion]]s, while Kholks will join them after half the [[Raider]]'s health has been depleted. The Ogre fights much like it did in Astral Alignment, standing in the back firing a constant barrage of Axion Darts, and pelting targets with Rotten Surge. Occasionally, it will move to a side of the room.

You are not required to completely finish the bosses off. You need only whittle them down until they have a quarter of their health left, at which point they will teleport back to their original positions, before the final boss emerges from the Blight: [[Kelgorath, Risen from Bones]].

*Aside from the large, horn-like protrusions that most [[Ultra]] Taken have on their back, Kholks bears a striking resemblance to [[Nur Abath, Crest of Xol]], and [[Asbel, Far from Home]].
