'''Xivu Arath, God of War''', formerly known as '''Xi Ro''', is a [[Hive]] god and youngest sister to [[Savathûn, the Witch Queen]] and [[Oryx, the Taken King]]. Together with her two siblings, she was a progenitor of the contemporary Hive species and one of its chief gods, having made a pact with the [[Worm]]s of [[Fundament]]. She is driven to become the mightiest warrior in the universe, and her influence is present wherever armed conflict takes place.

Xivu Arath was born Xi Ro on the gas giant [[Fundament]] with her sisters [[Oryx, the Taken King|Aurash]] and [[Savathûn, the Witch Queen|Sathona]]; her father was the [[Osmium King]], ruler of the [[Osmium Court]]. She was a member of a short-lived, proto-[[Hive]] species called "the Krill"<ref>[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zXcW1SeqwfE&ab_channel=GeneralHay] '''Youtube''': ''Vow of the Disciple Lore Book dialogue(3:01)]''</ref> whose original homeworld had crashed into the gas giant millions of years ago. As a young Krill she was fascinated by her surroundings, attempting daring feats that would have killed lesser beings; she took six of the [[stormjoy]]s' bait-stars because of this. Above all, she wanted to be a warrior, a Knight like her father's warriors.

Above all, she wanted to be a warrior, a Knight like her father's warriors.


When her father became mad and raved about the Syzygy, and the [[Helium Drinkers]] invaded at the urging of [[Taox]], Xi Ro used her bait-stars to help her sisters escape and comforted Aurash as they fled their home. Together with her sisters, she swore a blood-oath on the mast of their ship, upon her left eye, to avenge their father and kill Taox. When they salvaged an ancient, high-tech ship from the Shvubi Maelstrom, Xi Ro wanted to sell it to raise an army and kill Taox immediately but was convinced by Sathona that it was worthless.

During their aimless journey at the behest of Sathona (who was guided by their father's worm-familiar), Xi Ro cleaned up the ship and attempted to take her sisters' minds off their task. Eventually, when Sathona fretted they would not be able to avenge their father, and Aurash concluded they would have to dive, Xi Ro was initially afraid but understood. Xi Ro warned them, however, that this was how the crew had died, but Sathona, urged on by the Worm, agreed with Aurash. The sisters took the needle into the deep. They finally reached a point where they could use the ship's sensors on the oceans. To their horror, they discovered that the Syzygy was real and that Fundament's moons had already aligned. Just then, they were encountered by the [[Leviathan (Fundament)|Leviathan]], a creature long spoken of in Krill myth. The Leviathan warned the sisters that they needed to turn back, or else would unleash disaster upon the universe, saying that they faced a choice between the [[Light]], which offered civilization, and the [[Darkness]], which offered only violence. However, the Leviathan offered no hope to the sisters to avoid the Syzygy. Sathona then revealed the Worm's help to her sisters, and how it urged them to go down. Rejecting the Leviathan's entreaties, the sisters dove into the core.<ref>'''Bungie (2015/9/15)''', ''[[Destiny]]: [[The Taken King]], [[Grimoire]]: [[Grimoire:Enemies/Books of Sorrow#VIII: Leviathan|VIII: Leviathan]]''</ref>

Reaching the very center of Fundament, the three sisters found the [[Worm Gods]]: [[Akka, the Worm of Secrets|Akka]], [[Eir, the Keeper of Order|Eir]], [[Ur, the Ever-Hunger|Ur]], [[Xol, Will of the Thousands|Xol]], and [[Yul, the Honest Worm|Yul]]. The Worm Gods offered the three sisters a chance for the Krill to escape Fundament as well as achieve immortality. All they had to do was take the Worms larvae into them as symbiotes and spread them among the Krill. The Worms posed the caveat that the sisters must never cease their natures: Xi Ro must always test her strength, Sathona must always be cunning, and Aurash must always try to understand. The sisters accepted the pact and became the first Hive: Xi Ro took the Knight morph and became Xivu Arath, Sathona took the Mother morph and became Savathûn, and Aurash took the King morph, transforming into a male and became Auryx, the King of the Hive.<ref>'''Bungie (2015/9/15)''', ''[[Destiny]]: [[The Taken King]], [[Grimoire]]: [[Grimoire:Enemies/Books of Sorrow#XII: Out of the Deep|XII: Out of the Deep]]''</ref>

As Auryx and his sisters forced an ultimatum on the remaining Krill to accept the worms or perish, turning them into the Hive, Auryx turned his attention to Fundament's moons, and the [[Ammonite]]s there who had allied with the [[Traveler]] and gave asylum to Taox. Initially, he was willing to negotiate with the Ammonites, but his sister Savathûn, under pressure from the Worms, killed Auryx as punishment. Rather than dying, Auryx's soul instead passed to his [[Ascendant Realm]], or throne world, where his soul resided until he returned to the mortal realm. Rebuked, Auryx purged what sympathy and goodwill he had left, becoming a merciless tyrant. He and his sisters warred with and killed one another on a regular basis after the defeat of the Ammonites, as part of their worship of the Sword-Logic and their attempt to become the sharpest blades in the universe, heading to their Ascendant realms when defeated. Their war of revenge against Taox had transformed into a campaign of genocide when they slew the Ammonites and other interstellar civilizations to feed their worms. While Auryx and Savathûn established [[Court of Oryx|courts]] to practice and study the sword logic, Xivu Arath declined, declaring that her court would be everywhere war was found.<ref>'''Bungie (2015/9/15)''', ''[[Destiny]]: [[The Taken King]], [[Grimoire]]: [[Grimoire:Enemies/Books of Sorrow#XXII: The High War|XXII: The High War]]''</ref>

During the war with the [[Ecumene]], Auryx came to realize that the Worm had deceived him and his sisters: their Worms appetites were growing past their ability to feed with death. Meeting with his sisters in his ascendant realm, surrounded by their servants (some of which despised them for showing weakness) they despaired over their dilemma. When his sisters offered their power to help Auryx find a way to save them, Auryx killed them, then used that power to confront his patron god [[Akka, the Worm of Secrets]]. He killed Akka so that he may steal its ability to call upon [[Darkness|the Deep]] and created the Tablets of Ruin, which gave him the power to [[Taken|Take]]. His transformation complete, Auryx was now Oryx, the Taken King. During the subsequent war with the Ecumene, Oryx revived Xivu Arath in an act of war and revived Savathûn in an act of cunning. He then decreed the tithe system: each Hive would kill their enemies, take some to feed their own worm and tithe the rest to their superior. Thralls would tithe to Acolytes, Acolytes would tithe to Knights or Wizards, the Knights and Wizards would tithe to the Ascendant Hive, those who commanded legions of warriors and earned the right to enter the Hive gods' Ascendant realms. All of this violence would eventually reach Oryx, Savathûn, and Xivu Arath, allowing their worms to feed on violence while continuing to invoke their inner natures.<ref>'''Bungie (2015/9/15)''', ''[[Destiny]]: [[The Taken King]], [[Grimoire]]: [[Grimoire:Enemies/Books of Sorrow#XXIX: Carved in Ruin|XXIX: Carved in Ruin]]''</ref>

Following the [[Golden Amputation]], Oryx declared to his sisters that the Hive had conquered its way to the edge of the Deep and that it had granted him a personal audience. <ref>'''Bungie (2015/9/15)''', ''[[Destiny]]: [[The Taken King]], [[Grimoire]]: [[Grimoire:Enemies#Books of Sorrow/XXX: a golden amputation|XXX: a golden amputation]]''</ref> As Oryx retreated into his throne world to commune with it, Savathûn conspired with Xivu Arath to strand him there and steal his Tablets of Ruin by cutting off the tribute flowing through his tithe system.<ref>'''Bungie (2015/9/15)''', ''[[Destiny]]: [[The Taken King]], [[Grimoire]]: [[Grimoire:Enemies/Books of Sorrow#XXXV: This Love Is War|XXXV: This Love Is War]]''</ref> They were ultimately unsuccessful.

In the aftermath of this attempted betrayal, one of Oryx's daughters, Ir Halak, visited Xivu Arath's throne world and tested her [[Deathsong]] there. All who heard it were irreversibly killed.

Following [[Titan (moon)|Titan]]'s reappearance after having previously been [[Taken]] by the [[the Witness|Witness]], a team of Guardians consisting of the [[Young Wolf]], [[Commander Zavala]], [[Saint-14]], and [[Lord Saladin]] landed on the Rig in an attempt to reach Deputy Commander [[Sloane]], who had broadcast a distress signal shortly after the moon reappeared.

She taunted Saint-14 in particular, remarking that [[Sagira]] had been a foe worthy of death while [[Osiris]] had not, driving the Titan into a rage.
The Guardians succeeded in locating Sloane and learned of her predicament. The Deputy Commander was partially Taken after Titan was claimed by the Witness which allowed her to "tune into the enemy's radio" but was afflicted by demanding whispers which almost led her to be claimed by Xivu Arath but thanks to the creature [[Ahsa]], Sloane was saved and established a connection with her. Understanding that they share a foe in the Witness, the Guardians work with Sloane in helping her in strengthening her connection to Ahsa, thereby allowing her to decipher her messages. As the Guardians worked this, they clashed with Xivu Arath's Wrathborn, with the War God taunting them. However, as the Guardians learned about a Lucent Hive attempting to conduct a ritual to resurrect Oryx with the Light, they found Calcified fragments that recorded Xivu Arath's personal thoughts regarding the Hive's purpose in enacting the Final Shape and her potent grief at the loss of her brother.
Despite the efforts of her Hive and Taken, including Kelgorath and those who once served the Witch Queen, the Guardians managed to gain enough egregore coral to help Sloane interpret Ahsa's messages, including one where she spoke of the Witness's origins. However, during one of the Guardian's deep dive missions, Xivu Arath sensed an opportunity to strike at Ahsa while the Guardian was distracted, conducting a ritual that struck Ahsa, forcing the worm to leave the safety of the Arcologies to the ritual site in a vain attempt to disrupt the ritual but ended up captured. Xivu Arath ordered her the orchestrators of the ritual, three Screams of Xivu Arath, to begin the ritual where she will Take Ahsa. The Coalition caught wind of this and the combined efforts of Sloane, Saint-14, Saladin and Zavala occupied her forces enough to allow the Guardian to reach the ritual site. Taking out each wizard and using the Drifter's machine to purify the egregore coral not only disrupted the ritual but each one wounded Xivu Arath herself but the Hive War God would laugh following each wounding. Yet, regardless of her Hive and Taken forces, Xivu Arath's ritual failed, allowing Ahsa to return to safety and deliver the last piece of her message, while her forces initiated a full retreat. The worm attempted to speak it through Sloane but the Deputy Commander nearly became possessed by the Hive War God who once again taunted her but thanks to Zavala, Sloane was able to regain control over herself. With her connection clear, Ahsa spoke through Sloane and informed the Vanguard that while the path to the Witness is obscured, one individual may know a way to follow. One Ahsa speaks as "she who hides truth in deception", Savathûn herself. If the Vanguard wishes to follow and stop the Witness, then they will have no other choice but to allow the Witch Queen to be revived.
Following her failure to Take Ahsa, Xivu Arath communed with the Witness upon the Dreadnaught, who expressed its doubts as to Xivu's abilities, but nonetheless commanded her to prepare to fight against Savathûn in the event the Vanguard chose to allow her resurrection.<ref>'''Bungie (2023/6/27)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: [[Season of the Deep]] - [[Lore]]: [[Lore:Purpose#VI. Conviction|Purpose VI. Conviction]]''</ref> She would allow the Guardian an audience inside her [[The Drowning|temple]] underneath [[Kraken Mare]]. With this invitation, she issued a challenge to them, to defeat a Taken Knight named [[Khull, Executioner Knight]], then a powerful [[Tormentor]] in her service: [[Omen, Blade of the Black Terrace]]. After defeating the Tormentor, she deems them worthy, awarding them the [[Wicked Implement]], the use of which would allow them not only to tithe to her, but become strong enough to face her directly.
===A Challenger Rises===
After weighing their options, Ikora and Eris believed that there was no other way to follow The Witness but to allow the Witch Queen to be revived and gain the information she possessed. Reaching out to Savathûn's Ghost, [[Immaru]], offering him the Witch Queen's body to be revived in exchange for the knowledge they seek. Immaru instead offers a bargain of his own, citing that Savathûn anticipated that the Vanguard would need her. He will revive Savathûn but only after killing her sister, Xivu Arath, for good and will provide the aid necessary for it. Despite the terms, Ikora and Eris agree but after journeying through [[Savathûn's Spire]] and hearing a recording from her stating that they cannot confront Xivu Arath directly for the Hive God of War cannot be defeated conventionally for she feeds off of all conflict. Therefore, only a Hive God of equal strength can defeat Xivu Arath using the Hive's own Sword Logic. Understanding that the task now falls to her, Eris Morn volunteers herself to become a Hive and with the Guardian as her "acolyte" she would feed from their kills until she grows strong enough to challenge the Hive God of War. Though Ikora objects to this plan, fearing for Eris's well-being, she is convinced that there is no other way, for simply maintaining their current stalemate with Xivu Arath is not feasible nor can they outright battle with her, for in either case, they will lose.
After performing a ritual that turns Eris Morn into the Hive God of Vengeance, the Guardians begin slaying Hive and other creatures found with the Witch Queen's oubliette found beneath Savathûn's Spire as tithes to her which allows Eris to grow in strength. However, Xivu Arath became aware of Eris's "ascension" and welcomed it, even calling Eris her new sister, which Eris adamantly denies. Nonetheless, Xivu Arath sends her forces to claim Savathûn's Spire, once viewing the sanctum as heresy but came to the conclusion that even the Light can adhere to the Sword Logic, but the Guardians managed to clear the Spire of Xivu Arath's forces. Further, the Guardians prevented the War God's forces from slaying the prisoners found in the [[Altars of Summoning]], slaying them themselves as tithes to Eris. During all this, Xivu Arath continued to taunt Eris, goading her to give in to her new Hive nature and accept the Sword Logic as truth, even welcoming the upcoming challenge the two will have but Eris remains steadfast against her words. With her hand forced, Xivu Arath summons one of her most powerful warriors, the [[Leviathan-Eater, Bane of the Ammonites]] to face the Guardians but the entity withdraws as it merely tested their capabilities and it will be back once Xivu Arath's brood had been organized.
After Eris prepared herself for the Guardian's final tithe, she opened the way to the [[Altar of the Sword]], where Xivu Arath had her Leviathan-Eater waiting. Though the God of War welcomed the challenge greatly, her favored champion ultimately fell to the Guardians, their tithes strengthening Eris. However, what Xivu Arath didn't expect was Eris Morn slaying a revived Savathûn, gaining millennia worth of power as the Witch Queen hadn't been killed since the separation of her worm. Combining that power with the tithes the Guardians had collected, Eris Morn had become the most powerful Hive God, surpassing even Xivu Arath. However, instead of challenging the Hive God of War directly, Eris Morn weaves a spell that banishes Xivu Arath from her own Throne World, rendering her mortal and vulnerable. With her spell finished, Eris collapses and eventually returns to her human form but confirms to the Guardian that Xivu Arath is furious at her defeat and, being severed from her Throne World, she can't grow in strength from her tithes which Ikora believes will make her more open to being challenged should Xivu Arath appear. Savathûn meanwhile, found great amusement in her sister's predicament, enough to send Xivu Arath a message taunting her, though the War God would not respond.
===In Hiding===
Following her banishment from her own Throne World, Xivu Arath would go into hiding, not taking part in the final battle between the Coalition and the Witness. Her Hive forces, however, would still serve the Witness in combating the Guardians as they found a path to enter the Traveler's [[The Pale Heart|Pale Heart]].<ref>'''Bungie (2024/6/4)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: [[The Final Shape]] - [[Exegesis]]''</ref>
After the Guardians [[Iconoclasm|found]] the weakness of the Witness, they would continue their efforts to heal the Traveler and locate any remaining lost Ghosts. One of these [[The Ascendant|missions]] involved finding and saving [[Akasha]], a Ghost that had been systemically scanning Awoken territory for years and whose last known location was the Dreaming City. After finding Akasha, Mara Sov, Micah and Crow would deduce from the movements across the Ley Lines, that, as Xivu Arath didn't join the Witness in its invasion of the Pale Heart, she was playing to turn the forces of the Black Fleet and the Coalition against each other to gain an advantage. Xivu Arath would continue to move the Hive forces from her brood through the Ascendant Plane en masse, while Mara was focused on holding back the Final Shape and couldn't keep an eye on her city's Ley Lines, cutting her losses from her previous master and gathering her strength for the war that would follow the [[War against the Witness]].<ref name="ascendant">'''Bungie (2024/6/4)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: [[The Final Shape]] - [[The Ascendant]]''</ref>
Another of these [[The Past|missions]] involved finding and saving [[Citrine]], a Ghost obsessed with Warmind hardware and whose last known location was Mars. Here, the Guardian would traverse the unpredictable, rifts that cursed the planet. Micah would detect Xivu Arath's Hive forces were sent back to the planet to investigate the time anomalies and the team would confront and kill [[Kelgorath, Risen from Bones]], manifested from when he was trying to conquer the location, to prevent Xivu Arath from retrieving any functional Warmind tech while Mara would dispatch her Techeuns to seal the rift even if temporarily.<ref name="past">'''Bungie (2024/6/4)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: [[The Final Shape]] - [[The Past]]''</ref>
Though the Coalition rejoiced in the [[Excision|Witness's fall]], they nonetheless understood that its death left a power vacuum that some of its former servants are seeking to fill and continue to enact the Final Shape. They also hadn't forgotten that Xivu Arath remained at large, for though she was mortal, the Hive God of War remained a threat that the Guardians would have to contend with in the future.<ref>'''Bungie (2024/6/7)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: [[The Final Shape]] - [[Excision]]''</ref> Eris Morn inquired as to where Xivu and Savathûn had fled after the Final Shape was prevented.<ref>'''Bungie (2024/6/4)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: [[Episode: Echoes]] - [[Ill Omen#Lore|Ill Omen]]''</ref>
==Personality and Traits==
{{Quote|I AM WAR.|Xivu Arath.}}
Compared to her siblings, Xivu Arath is the least subtle but the most bloodthirsty, boisterous and wrathful of the three. Nearly every time she speaks it is in booming roars, ferocious growls and screams of bloodlust, and as the embodiment of war she relishes conflict and strife in all its forms. She is a master of siege warfare and an expert strategist, with her brood being far better organized and battle-hardened than even Oryx's Hive. Even Savathûn's Ghost, [[Immaru]], has admitted that Xivu Arath is The Witness' best general.
While her tactical abilities are exceptional, Xivu Arath has often been shown to be simpler, easier to fool, and generally less intelligent than her siblings. While she was disguised as Osiris, Savathûn stated that her sister lacked a sense of creativity and ambitions of her own, after observing that she was merely pushing through the cracks within the Dreaming City that the Witch Queen had previously left behind.
However, it would be gravely foolish to underestimate Xivu Arath, for what she lacks in subtlety she makes up for in determination, cruelty and ferocity. She has also proven very adept at emotional manipulation, most notably with Sloane after Titan was Taken, mocking her and tempting her to give into violence. In Xivu Arath's own words, she targets her enemies' weakness and "infects" them. Doing so leaves her opponents doubting themselves or giving into rage which would fuel the conflict that feeds her and her worm.
Xivu Arath values persistence as much as she does strength, as she is empowered by the willingness of others to remain fighting. This is best exemplified by her continued support of [[Kelgorath, Risen from Bones]], whom she continued to resurrect and prop up as a steady source of tithe, despite his repeated defeats and deaths.
Xivu Arath continues to be a fanatical believer in the Hive's Sword Logic, even as her sister and various other, lesser Hive have abandoned their beliefs and turned to heresy. When learning of Oryx's death and his slayer's refusal to assume his mantle as the Taken King, Xivu Arath became utterly furious and hysterical, calling it "blasphemy." She likewise felt utter betrayal when she learned that Savathûn had turned her back on the Darkness and converted to the Light.
Eris Morn derisively stated that Xivu Arath is desperate to prove the Sword Logic, in order to vindicate the Hive's efforts and prove the Traveler's path is a lie. Eris further described Xivu Arath's desire for the Sword Logic's truth, of a world without doubt, pity or grief as being akin to a child's cry. Following her brother's death, Xivu Arath outright asked herself whether or not her decision to take up the Sword Logic and side with the Witness was all for nothing.
===Relationships===
To Xivu Arath, as they are to virtually all Hive, love and hate are essentially equivalent concepts. Though she killed Oryx many times in the past, Xivu Arath has nothing but glowing praise and affection for her brother, as seen in the memories found in the "Ghosts of the Deep" mission. Xivu Arath sees him as a source of inspiration and guidance throughout their lives as both Krill and Hive, calling him the "Navigator of her life." She was utterly furious after learning of his death and laments the doubt it left behind, audibly wailing when recounting his death, showing herself to be a sister in mourning. Her grief was such that she did not oppose the Lucent Hive as they sought to resurrect her brother with the Light - a heretical violation of the Sword Logic, as it would bring her brother back after suffering a true death.
Xivu Arath's relationship with her sister Savathûn is more complicated, as while the Witch Queen "gifted" her with the conquest of Torobatl, Xivu Arath later relentlessly hunted her sister after learning of her intention to abandon the Sword Logic and betray the Witness for the Light, something that the war god found both heretical and infuriating. Savathûn claimed that Xivu Arath was actually hunting her out of fear of losing her, because separating herself from her worm would also render Savathûn separated from her sister. Somewhat sadly, the Witch Queen admitted that however deeply she cared for Xivu Arath, it wasn't enough to deter her from her chosen path. Nonetheless, despite the love that the sisters may have once had, Xivu Arath remains angry with the Witch Queen's abandonment of their ways, leading the War God to deface what Savathûn once possessed and twist her former lieutenants into her servants.

*Similar to her sister, Xivu Arath has likely discerned her own path through the Sword Logic. She is described by one of her knights as a master of 'operontological warfare' whereby she can directly attack an enemy's very being through mere strategic prowess, essentially winning a battle before it is fought simply through insurmountable tactics.
