Due to receiving a report from Crow about the House of Salvation converging on the Cradle, both the Guardian and Mithrax are sent to investigate. Meeting up with Mithrax within the cave in the Blooming, the Guardian sends their Ghost to hack into House Salvation's system while they fight off the enemy forces. After Ghost successfully hacks into their systems, Mithrax uncovers that the House of Salvation were attempting to harvest the paracausal energy from the Tree of Silver Wings. Emerging from the cave, the Guardian discovers that the bottom of the tree is inaccessible due to being blocked by a barrier. To lower the barrier, the Guardian defeats [[Eater of Light|Taken]] [[Eater of Darkness|Captain]]s to receive notes of Light and Dark, and imbues the founts with the opposite paracausal force. With the barrier down, the Guardian returns to the bottom of the tree where they confront the Captain leading the operation, [[Korha, the Hollow]]. Recognizing this Captain, Mithrax would quickly order the Guardian to bring them to justice. Despite the assistance of his forces, the Guardian's strength proves too formidable, forcing Korha to retreat and leaving Mithrax enraged at his cowardice. When Ikora asks Mithrax who the Captain is, the Kell of Light responds by stating he was an individual from his past. Recognizing that Korha was a threat, Ikora and Mithrax would agree to hunt him down with the assistance of Mithrax's House Salvation contacts. | |||
Tracking Korha's location to [[Riis-Reborn]], both the Guardian and Mithrax would arrive at the Fallen city to confront him. Furthermore, thanks to the information from the [[The Hidden|Hidden]] Ikora would reveal that Korha was the right hand of Eramis until they retook Seraph Station. Desiring to end his old foe, Mithrax would proclaim that he would kill Korha like he should have done years ago. Although Ghost remained puzzled by Mithrax's relationship with this foe, he would still proclaim his support for the Light Kell. Traversing up Riis-Reborn, the Guardian uses Demolition Shanks to destroy the inaccessible entrances and defeats Weaver squadrons to travel further into the settlement. Baffled by his hatred for this Captain, Ghost finally questions Mithrax about what his hatred of Korha stemmed from. Mithrax reveals that Korha was a former member of the [[House of Winter]] responsible for killing his mother: [[Inaaks]]. Eventually, the Guardian and Mithrax reach the Technocrat's Iron where they confront Korha who brings forth his forces. During this fierce battle, Mithrax demands that Korha answers him, however he would only receive silence from the enforcer. Hacking into House Salvation's systems, Mithrax would reprogram a Brig and use it to crush Korha, delivering justice for the death of his mother. After the battle was complete, Ikora would state that Korha had been rendered into a hollowed vessel by the Witness. Mithrax would then speak of his concern for [[Eido]]'s future, to which Ikora proclaims she will find her own path thanks to their guidance. | |||
