==Overview==
Guardians use Crow's device, known as the [[Cryptolith]] Lure, to draw out [[Fallen]] and [[Hive]] corrupted by Xivu Arath into an army known as [[Wrathborn]]. They use the lures to draw out Wrathborn, hunt them to their lairs, and kill powerful Wrathborn that are summoned after their death.
