During the Hive's [[Siege of the Warmind|siege]] of Rasputin's bunker, Eris sends the Guardian to stop their advance from either destroying or corrupting the Warmind. When they reach the center of the bunker, however, Omnigul and her [[Watcher of Crota|Watchers of Crota]] ambushed them by summoning waves of Hive reinforcements directly at the Guardian. When proven ineffective, Omnigul summons the [[Might of Crota]] before escaping yet again.<ref name="Siege of the Warmind">'''Bungie (2014/12/9)''', ''[[Destiny]]: [[The Dark Below]], [[Grimoire]]: [[Grimoire:Activities/The Dark Below#Siege of the Warmind|Siege of the Warmind]]''</ref> Whilst it seemed that the assault to destroy Rasputin has failed, Eris believed that Omnigul has found what she sought from the Warmind.<ref name="Siege of the Warmind">'''Bungie (2014/12/9)''', ''[[Destiny]]: [[The Dark Below]], [[Grimoire]]: [[Grimoire:Activities/The Dark Below#Siege of the Warmind|Siege of the Warmind]]''</ref>

Ultimately, Omnigul's efforts at bringing back Crota would be for naught as her summoning ritual was disrupted and her spawn hunted by Guardians, until she herself was left pursued by a [[Strike]] [[fireteam]] in an attempt to raise a new army beneath [[Skywatch]]. Despite her efforts at stirring the [[House of Kings]] against the Guardians, she was finally cornered at the [[Jovian Complex]] and killed, putting an end to her schemes. <ref>'''Bungie (2014/12/9)''', ''[[Destiny]]: [[The Dark Below]], [[The Will of Crota]]''</ref>

Despite Hashladûn's death, Nightmares continued to appear across the system, with the stronger ones forming into some of the Guardians' deadliest foes, Omnigul among them. The newly formed [[Nightmare of Omnigul, Will of Crota]], representing the Essence of Anguish, would become a target in the Guardians' [[Nightmare Hunt]]s to contain the Pyramid's influences.

**An adjunct is something added to a whole that does not serve a necessary purpose. Being that in the final release of The Dark Below, Omnigul is Crota's most powerful and loyal lieutenant and is the mother to his swarm, this name is quite ironic.
