Biography

"First of the Reshaped, Keit'Ehr, flain from resonance. Prove your existence by escaping this death. Should you rise, and find us again, your strength will be known."

— The Witness

Keit'Ehr was the first attempt by the Witness to create Dread using the Light within the Traveler's Pale Heart in combination with its own Resonant Darkness. The resulting being was too weak to move and remained dormant following its creation, forcing the Witness to abandon it as a failure, but not before giving it a name and instructing it to seek them out should it manage to survive, claiming that they would be recognized for their strength if they did so. From their resting place, Keit'Ehr would watch the creation of the other Dread and the death of the Witness. Only afterwards would it awaken and go on to prove its worth as a Subjugator.

At some point, Keit'Ehr would be Taken through unknown means and rechristened itself as "The Resonant Knife, First of the Reshaped". After being Taken, The Resonant Knife would lead a new force of Dire Taken to the Dreadnaught in pursuit of the Echo of Navigation. It ambushed Eris Morn and the Drifter, successfully killing the former but not without first being shot point-blank in the face by Eris. The Guardian later confronted the Resonant Knife during a ritual with several Cruxes of Darkness and Blights, ultimately forcing it to flee.

When the Guardian discovered that the Echo of Navigation was created from the memory of Oryx, the Taken King, the Resonant Knife would appear before them, leading Dire Taken. This time, the Guardian would be the one to flee.
