When the [[Lunar Pyramid]] became active and the [[Nightmares]] unleashed, [[Kinox]] urged her sisters to rally the leaderless [[Hidden Swarm]] by reanimating the essence of Zulmak with forbidden [[Necromancy]] as their puppet champion. His corpse was recovered by [[Besurith]] and [[Voshyr]], with [[Hashladûn]] offering the phantasmal essence of the [[Nightmare]]s as a catalyst to infuse into it, creating the first hybrid of a Hive infused with the power of the Nightmares.<ref name= Heretic></ref>

With the deaths of Hashladûn and Besurith at the hands of the [[Guardian]]s, the remaining daughters went into hiding in the Pit beneath the Scarlet Keep. Out of fear and desperation, the Hive began [[Altars of Sorrow|sacrificing]] Nightmares en masse and harvesting their dark energy into crystals for a ritual to commune with [[The Witness]].

*Zulmak is the fifth Hive being shown clearly speaking their native tongue instead of roaring unintelligibly. The previous four were [[Ir Anûk, Deathsinger]], [[Ir Halak, Deathsinger]], and two unnamed deathsingers, all collectively singing the Deathsinger's Dirge in the mission [[Last Rites]].
