Two years following the death of her brother [[Oryx, the Taken King|Oryx]] and sometime after the [[Red War]], Xivu Arath began committing her forces to the Solar System, possibly in aid of her sister Savathûn or for her own schemes. An Ogre, [[Megor, Spawn of Xivu]], was imprisoned in the [[Prison of Elders]] had seemingly been leading a Hive cult with [[Ir Yun, Cult of Megor]] and would later break free from containment during the [[Scorn]]'s [[Hunt for the Scorn|jailbreak]].<ref>'''Bungie (2018/9/4)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: [[Forsaken]] | Two years following the death of her brother [[Oryx, the Taken King|Oryx]] and sometime after the [[Red War]], Xivu Arath began committing her forces to the Solar System, possibly in aid of her sister Savathûn or for her own schemes.

After the breakout, a substantial force of Hive and Taken had begun to pillage [[Awoken]] artifacts for unknown purposes. It would later be revealed that members of Xivu's own brood, [[Sugroth, Shield of Xivu Arath|Sugroth]], [[Hasaak, Venom of Xivu Arath|Hasaak]] and [[Tulkor, Ferocity of Xivu Arath|Tulkor]] were sent to both steal the artifacts and keep them out of the Guardian's reach. As the Guardians would cut through Xivu's forces, they would find out that some Taken champions, [[Crorok, Will of Xivu Arath|Crorok]] and [[Xaras, Greed of Xivu Arath|Xaras]] were apparently obedient to the war goddess with the latter being the commanding force of the Taken and Hive's pillaging schemes.<ref>'''Bungie (2018/9/4)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: [[Forsaken]] | After the breakout, a substantial force of Hive and Taken had begun to pillage [[Awoken]] artifacts for unknown purposes.

One of Xivu's former champions; [[Nightmare of Jaxx, Claw of Xivu Arath|Jaxx, Claw of Xivu Arath]], can be seen manifesting in the form of an [[Nightmare]], however, would be slain by the Guardians. | |||

The High Celebrant was sent to Luna to wrest free the Swarm from [[Savathûn, the Witch Queen| The Witch Queen's]] plans and instead reform Luna in [[Xivu Arath, God of War| Xivu's]] image. A world where all tithes were tribute to her. The High Celebrant would, however, have their plans thwarted by [[Osiris]], who slew the near entirety of the Scarlet Court. Osiris would fall and strain against the sheer will of Xivu Arath's projection resulting in the High Celebrant marking runes around him and preparing him for his death. Despite surviving the loss of his Ghost, [[Sagira]], Osiris was greeted with little respite for the High Celebrant immediately sought off to hunt him only to be thwarted again by [[The Guardian]] instead, forcing them to retreat back to the [[Ascendant Plane]]. | ||

Following the Darkness's arrival, Nokris' fall, and various worlds of the Sol System going dark, the Guardians discover a rise of corrupted Hive activity within the Tangled Shore and the Dreaming City of the Reef. They soon learn that the Hive's God of War, [[Xivu Arath]], has begun to marshal her forces in preparation for the Darkness's next move. This was achieved from her [[Cryptolith|Cryptoliths]], organic Hive structures that borrow into the material plane and root themselves, calling out to nearby beings, drawing them closer to be transformed into [[Wrathborn]]. These Cryptoliths started corrupting Eliksni but quickly spread to Hive and Cabal. Commanded and aided in their spread by the [[High Celebrant of Xivu Arath|High Celebrant]], they would be the Wrathborn's command and Xivu Arath's lead in the system. To combat this threat, the Guardians agree to a partnership with the Spider and to work with a mysterious Lightborn called the [[Uldren Sov|Crow]], who is, in reality, Uldren Sov revived as a Guardian. In the ensuing weeks Wrathborn of [[House of Spider]], [[House of Dusk]], and the broods of the Hive would be hunted down. As for the corrupted Red Legion, none were encountered, which has concerned Crow. | |||

Sometime following the Hunt for the Wrathborn, Savathûn sought to undermine the Cabal homeworld of [[Torobatl]] by guising as her sister by corrupting Evocate-General [[Umun'arath]] into becoming a worshipper of Xivu Arath. Driven by obsession over war, Umun'arath undertook a Hive ritual in the capital city to summon the God of War to their planet, which was accidentally completed when [[Empress Caiatl|Caiatl, the Princess-Imperial]] slew Umun'arath, providing the blood and sacrifice needed to open a portal for Xivu Arath to cross through with her armada of [[War moon]]s and her armies of Hive.<ref>'''Bungie (2021/2/9)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: [[Season of the Chosen]] - [[Lore]]: [[Lore:Empress#CHAPTER_5:_NEW_GODS|Empress CHAPTER 5: NEW GODS]]''</ref> As she | Sometime following the Hunt for the Wrathborn, Savathûn sought to undermine the Cabal homeworld of [[Torobatl]] by guising as her sister by corrupting Evocate-General [[Umun'arath]] into becoming a worshipper of Xivu Arath.

On the day of the ritual to exorcise Savathûn's worm, Xivu Arath's brood, in a last-ditch effort to capture their master's sister, launched a massive assault on the Dreaming City and attempted to overwhelm the Blind Well. Despite being unsuccessful in preventing the realignment of the Ley Lines, this would allow the Hive army to travel through the Ascendant Plane and begin swarming the Ritual Spire, in which the exorcism was taking place until they were once again pushed back by the Guardians. Desperate to capture Savathûn, Kruutiks, [[Kholks, Taken of Xivu Arath|Kholks]], and finally [[Kelgorath, Risen from Bones]], forced their way into the Spire, followed by hordes of Xivu's forces, and attacked the ritual, but ultimately failed and were defeated at the hands of the Lightbearers. | On the day of the ritual to exorcise Savathûn's worm, Xivu Arath's brood, in a last-ditch effort to capture their master's sister, launched a massive assault on the Dreaming City and attempted to overwhelm the Blind Well.
