During this time, she and her mate [[Athrys]] were both members of the [[House of Devils|House of Dancers]] and had many hatchlings together, in addition to being a close friend of the scribe [[Variks]] of [[House of Judgement|House Judgement]]. However, their world's prosperity ended with the arrival of the Witness and the [[Black Fleet]], which brought about a cataclysmic event called the [[Whirlwind]] that destroyed Eliksni civilization. Eramis was one of the few Eliksni who witnessed the Traveler abandoning her people as it left [[Riis]] to its own destruction. | ||

Following the failed attempt to steal Outbreak Prime and the SIVA it contained, Eramis abandoned the House of Devils banner and united former members of the Devils, Wolves and Dusk Houses under the [[House of Salvation]], with Eramis proclaiming herself as Kell.

Furthermore, Eramis sought revenge against the [[Traveler]] for abandoning her people centuries prior.<ref>[https://www.gamespot.com/articles/destiny-2-beyond-light-expansion-will-let-you-wiel/1100-6478184/?ftag=NLS-04-10aaa1d '''GameSpot''' - ''Destiny 2 Beyond Light Expansion Will Let You Wield Darkness'']</ref> | ||

Desperate to save his people, Variks had stolen one of Eramis's Splinters of Darkness and sought a means to contact the Guardians to warn them of Eramis's threat. Though he was almost killed when the Dark Kell caught up to him, Variks was successful in getting the Guardian to aid him in combating Eramis and her House of Salvation. However, Eramis's use of Stasis. along with that of her lieutenants, proved too much for the Guardians to handle, forcing them to agree to work with the [[Exo Stranger]] in wielding Stasis themselves. | ||
After enough training, the Guardians are able to take out the members of Eramis's inner circle, such as [[Phylaks]] and [[Praksis]], growing in strength with their Stasis abilities. Hearing of her council being decimated, Eramis became enraged. Though [[Kridis]] advised caution, Eramis sought to retaliate, initially through gaining reinforcements from the remnants of the old House of Devils but after the Guardian caught wind of her plan and routed the devils before they could reach Europa, the Dark Kell became further enraged and desperate. Seeking reinforcements of a different nature, Eramis began to activate a Vex portal that Clovis Bray was studying, which would allow the Vex to pour through and overwhelm Europa. Believing that Eramis had truly gone mad, Variks directs the Guardians to stop the Vex portal in haste, succeeding in doing so after destroying [[Belmon, Transcendent Mind]]. Eramis nonetheless gained something from the massive amounts of radiolaria the portal had created. | After enough training, the Guardians are able to take out the members of Eramis's inner circle, such as [[Phylaks]] and [[Praksis]], growing in strength with their Stasis abilities.

With Eramis backed into a corner, the Guardian entered Riis-Reborn once more to confront the Kell of Darkness. As they proceeded, Eramis entered into one last argument with Variks, who furiously denounces all that she has committed, calling her a coward for turning her back on the eliskni chance to live in peace. Infuriated, Eramis silences the Judgment Scribe before finally facing the Guardian. Though they put up a fight, Eramis nonetheless manages to trap the Guardian in stasis along with their Ghost and destroy their Splinter, robbing them of both Light and Dark. Heeding the Exo Stranger's words to looks within, the Guardian embraces the Darkness, allowing them to break free and wield Stasis fully, sending the Dark Kell reeling. Battling against each other once more with their Stasis powers, Eramis quickly becomes desperate as the Guardian bests her forces and overcome her power, leading her to rant and rave at them. | With Eramis backed into a corner, the Guardian entered Riis-Reborn once more to confront the Kell of Darkness.

Ultimately, despite her stasis powers, the Guardian beat her to submission. Refusing to admit defeat, Eramis attempted to rise again but noticed that Stasis began to encase her. Unable to accept that she had failed to meet the Darkness's expectations, Eramis attempted to reach out to the Pyramid but was nonetheless completely overcome with Stasis, rending the Kell of Darkness a statue. Without their leader, the House of Salvation began to fracture and flounder, as the Guardians dismantled their operations on Europa and helped fleeing eliksni. Though [[Atraks]] and Kridis attempted to continue the war against the Guardian through separate means, they too both fell against the Guardians, rendering the House of Salvation a shell of what it was under Eramis. | Ultimately, despite her stasis powers, the Guardian beat her to submission.

In time, as Eramis's forces failed to gather the next relics, the Dark Kell would receive a surprise transmission from Eido, Mithrax's adopted daughter, calling for a parlay to hopefully reach a peaceable agreement. Despite her views, Eramis would respond to Eido and agree to the parlay, but warns the scribe to not waste her time. Mithrax learned of his daughter's efforts and found them foolhardy, asking the Guardian to accompany them to the meeting for Eido's protection. The Guardian agreed and met at the parlay location, a [[Neutral Asteroid|remote asteroid]] in the [[Themis Cluster]]. Eramis arrived and despite taking offense to the Guardian's presence, proceeds with the parlay but it becomes clear that peace isn't possible. Eido attempts to appeal towards Eramis, stating that another party attempted to claim the relics from the Old Crews but when Eramis wished to know who this party, Eido couldn't say but regardless, the relics in their hands could pose a serious danger. Unmoved, Eramis would take this opportunity to tell Eido that her father already knows how dangerous the relics are. Mithrax, still unwilling to tell Eido of his past himself, allows Eramis to regal the Light Scribe of her father's violent and brutal past, and of how he once wielded the relics, which are in reality, pieces of the dead Disciple of the Witness, [[Nezarec]]. Having become enthralled by its power, Mithrax became a cruel pirate leader and despite renouncing the relics and becoming Kell to the House of Light, Eramis claims that Mithrax will always be a killer. Eido is left silent as Eramis finishes her tale. Satisfied that she may have drove a wedge between Mithrax and his daughter, Eramis take her leave to continue leading the Old Crews in claiming the remaining relics. | In time, as Eramis's forces failed to gather the next relics, the Dark Kell would receive a surprise transmission from Eido, Mithrax's adopted daughter, calling for a parlay to hopefully reach a peaceable agreement.

Despite Eramis's efforts, the Old Crews continued to fail in delivering the relics to her and to her surprise, Eido continues to beseech Eramis to renounce the violence of the past and work towards a future where the eliskni can live in peace. Eramis, in a rare moment of gentleness, declines stating the violence she is a part of is all that she knows and its the only thing that she believes will end the conflicts the Eliskni are embroiled in. Ultimately, both parties discover that the third party seeking the relics of Nezarec is the [[Lucent Brood]] and the final relic was nearly within their grasp. However, Eido attempted to claim the relic first without violence but found herself cornered by the Hive. Desperate, the Guardian and Mithrax fight their way to Eido's position but find, to their surprise, that Eramis herself already arrived and saved Eido from the Hive. Mithrax then duels Eramis, despite Eido's pleas. Mithrax gains the upper-hand, leaving Eramis at his mercy but despite her efforts to goad him into showing Eido how ruthless he really is, Mithrax refuses and spares her. Mocking his act of mercy, claiming that Eido could've had everything, Eramis makes her escape on her Ketch, with the Guardian claiming the last relic. | Despite Eramis's efforts, the Old Crews continued to fail in delivering the relics to her and to her surprise, Eido continues to beseech Eramis to renounce the violence of the past and work towards a future where the eliskni can live in peace.

Following the destruction of the Warsat Network, Eramis went into hiding along with the majority of her House but still continued to serve The Witness. The Black Fleet and its master would soon arrive near Earth, igniting a large battle between the Vanguard Coalition and Pyramids but were ultimately overwhelmed by The Witness's power, even as the Traveler retaliated with a terraforming beam of Light. Subduing the Traveler and sending its Disciple Calus to locate [[The Veil]] on [[Neptune]], the Guardians led efforts to prevent Calus from claiming the Veil on Neptune and rescuing civilians and pilots who have been taken prisoner by the [[Shadow Legion]] on Earth. The Shipstealer would largely and silently observe as the Guardians worked with Queen Mara, Crow, [[Devrim Kay]], [[Amanda Holliday]] and Mithrax in infiltrating the Pyramid Outposts the Shadow Legion had built and housed the prisoners within, rescuing a great many. | Following the destruction of the Warsat Network, Eramis went into hiding along with the majority of her House but still continued to serve The Witness.

However, after locating the largest and most heavily fortified prison, Eramis contacted Mithrax as the team began their rescue mission, warning him that the prison was different from the others they dealt with. The Light Kell however angrily refused to hear what Eramis had to say, having not forgotten that she still pulled the trigger for the Warsat's to fire despite his pleas. Despite this, Mithrax is aware that Eramis doesn't lie and thus advises his comrades to be cautious. As the Guardians took out the guards and Amanda reached the command center, Mithrax reached the prisoners but discovered that a powerful [[Tormentor]] was leading the prison and summons a powerful force of Taken. Despite the Tormentor's power and use of the Taken, the Guardian slays them, allowing Amanda to hotwire the command console to release the prisoners, thereby allowing Mithrax to lead them to safety. Tragically, however, the base began to self-destruct as the group attempted to leave, killing Amanda but at the last second, Eramis entered the scene and saved Mithrax with her Stasis powers. The Shipstealer only gave the Light Kell a stern reminder that she warned him before going her own way, leaving the Light Kell at a loss for words. Since then, Eramis went back into hiding and has not been heard from since. Mithrax doubts Eramis had a change of heart regarding her allegiance to The Witness. | |||
Following the battles with the Shadow Legion, Eramis would seek out a House of Wolves Ketch [[Wolfship Turbine|partially buried]] in the [[Tangled Shore]]. Despite the insistence of her [[Vandal]] lieutenant [[Kylaksis]] to attack and capture an Awoken patrol vessel, Eramis declared that the time of the Shipstealer was gone and that all that mattered was where she was when the Final Shape came. She then transmitted aboard the Wolf Ketch and made her way to the ship's navigation where she retrieved a map to Riis from its data core that her mate Arthys had used to navigate out of Sol. Eramis was unsure if Arthys was still alive or not, but being at her side when the end came was what she could think most about.<ref>'''Bungie (2023/11/28)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: [[Season of the Wish]] - [[Nostos]]''</ref> While the Vanguard still considered her a credible threat, their attention was focused more on finding a way to pass through the portal and follow the Witness to prevent it from enacting the Final Shape. | |||
After many trials, revelations and risky bargains, the Guardians managed to enter into the Traveler's [[Pale Heart]] and confront The Witness for the last time, destroying the entity once and for all. With its death, House Salvation would begin to turn on itself in Eramis' absense. | |||
===Joining forces with the Light=== | |||
Eramis met with [[Ixis]] to inform her that a call for aid had been sent, and she needed to evacuate her nest. Ixis warned her that she would be killed if she made contact with the Last City, but Eramis knew they wouldn't be able to fight [[Fikrul, the Fanatic|Fikrul]]'s new breed of [[Scorn]] on their own. Eramis began to leave as she had weapons to prepare, knowing sooner or later she would come into contact with Fikrul.<ref>'''Bungie (2024/8/10)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: [[Episode: Revenant]] - [[Shadestalker Suit#Shadestalker Helm/Hood/Mask|Shadestalker Helm/Hood/Mask]]''</ref> | |||
Eramis and House Salvation sent a distress signal from Riis-Reborn as they came under attack from the [[Revenant Scorn]]. The Guardian and [[Uldren Sov|Crow]] arrived to rescue to Eliksni, but [[the Hidden]] informed them that Eramis was on site, and they made plans to capture her. The Guardian arrived at Eramis's location, and she challenged them to stand against her. However, the Guardian ultimately sided with her, and together they fought the Revenant Scorn. Fikrul arrived, and summoned a [[Revenant Baron]], before leaving. After they defeated the Baron, Eramis fled, exclaiming that she bowed to no one. The Guardian chased her down, and Crow arrived to personally arrest her. He explained that it wasn't his place to judge, but the people of the Last City wanted justice for the crimes she committed. Eramis scoffed at his so called justice, believing humanity has committed equal crimes against the Eliksni. Crow told her to think about her remaining kin, and Eramis agreed to go peacefully if her people were given save harbor. Crow gave his word, and Eramis asked to be brought to Eido.<ref name="Rev1">'''Bungie (2024/8/10)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: [[Episode: Revenant]] - [[Na-Veskirisk]]''</ref> | |||
Aboard the [[H.E.L.M.]], Crow held a gun to Eramis and activated onboarding defenses as a House Salvation Ketch arrived to free Eramis. He demanded that Eramis call them off, but she explained that she want the one in need of a rescue. Fikrul arrived in the H.E.L.M., and Eramis realized that it was too late, as Fikrul used his new [[Echo (object)|Echo]] to convert the Eliksni aboard the Ketch into Revenant Scorn, causing the Ketch to crash into the H.E.L.M.. The Guardian, Crow, and Eramis held onto the ship as it began a crash landing towards the surface of Europa. [[Failsafe]] took control of the ship due to her experience with crash landings.<ref name="Rev1"/> | |||
Eramis was placed within a jail cell in the [[Market District]]. Zavala visited an explained that she would receive a fair trial, and could face indefinite incarceration, or probation pending evaluation. She was also given a counsel who helped her sign legal documents, and had them translated into her language. | |||
Eido would frequently visit Eramis in her cell. Eramis began to recognize that the Guardian was protecting her people. Eido told her she was working with Variks to track down information about tonics. Eramis told her that she knew some older Eliksni that might have some knowledge on the topic. She also gave Eido coordinates to a Salvation enclave in need of assistance, and Eido forwarded it to Crow without telling him it was from Eramis.<ref>'''Bungie (2024/8/10)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: [[Episode: Revenant]] - [[Episode: Revenant Act I: Eliksni Rescue]]''</ref> | |||

However Eramis can be outsmarted as she tends to fire her Stasis where the Guardian is instead of where they will be. This can be used to outsmart her by jumping and rapidly changing directions. A Warlock's healing rift can protect themselves if they're frozen, a Titan's barricade can negate her attacks, and a Hunter's dodge usually can avoid it outright.

Eramis is also easy to stun, a precision shotgun shell or Stasis super attack to the head can stun her long enough to get some breathing room, but don't overestimate how long she's stunned, as her slam can easily knock the opponent into more danger or off the arena outright to certain doom. | Eramis is also easy to stun, a precision shotgun shell or Stasis super attack to the head can stun her long enough to get some breathing room, but don't overestimate how long she's stunned, as her slam can easily knock the opponent into more danger or off the arena outright to certain doom. | ||
Eramis is fought twice, first at the end of [[The Kell of Darkness]], and again midway through the [[ABHORRENT IMPERATIVE (mission)|ABHORRENT IMPERATIVE]] [[Mission]]. The first time, the player has access to unlimited Stasis powers, while the second time she has to be fought with their normal arsenal. In both cases, the fight will end before Eramis' health reaches zero. | |||

*''"I do not have time for your gawking. My… "counsel" has presented me with a labyrinth of documents I must read. She has… translated it into my language. Obviously in an attempt to lull me into a false sense of security. Such theatrics as this will not fool me. There is no justice at the hands of humanity. Only death. [whispers] Only death."'' | |||
*''"Oh, it’s you. I am told I will receive… "legal representation." Some form of advocate for this deplorable system. I hold no peers and will suffer no advocacy. I know in my heart the verdict has already been decided. That my corpse will hang from the City’s walls to reassure its people. One more monster slain."'' | |||
*''"I knew this was a trick. Your Vanguard sent an agent down to manipulate and interrogate me. She asked me of my childhood, my parents, my hatchlings. She wanted me to… talk about my pain. This psychological warfare will not work on me, Guardian. Tell your “therapist” that I see through her disguise. Her questions opened up too many old wounds to not be an attack."'' | |||
*''"Back again? I never thought I would long for the solitude the Prison of Elders provided. Instead, I am left to feel like a curiosity, trotted out for all the world to see. To bask in the glow of my spectacular failures. To relish my defeat. One last humiliation."'' | |||
*''"Here to enjoy your victory? I remember when I was a hatchling, I was brought to witness a House of Judgement trial. Two Eliksni armed with ceremonial blades. Trial by combat. The shame of defeat lasted only as long as your fleeting life. It was simple. Kind. This? Being left to rot in the filth of my own failure, until I am deemed fit to be executed? This is cruelty."'' | |||
*''"Guardian. I didn’t think this experience could be any worse. And yet, here you are. I do not need your pity or your curiosity. And if you’re here to finish me off… Stop wasting my time."'' | |||
*''"Come to appreciate the fruits of your labor? These judicial theatrics continue and I refuse to be broken by them. Your Commander Zavala came to see me. Assured me I would see a "fair trial". I asked what weapons I would be permitted for the occasion, and he... explained the City's justice system. He said that I could face indefinite incarceration! Or probation, pending evaluation. I will not stay caged, Guardian. I will not stay caged."'' | |||

*Both of Eramis' feet are mechanical prosthetics up to the ankle. Whether she is a double amputee or they have been replaced voluntarily, as in the case of [[Taniks, the Scarred|Taniks]], is unknown. The Devil Splicers similarly replaced their legs, though she is the first Fallen not to feature a peg leg arrangement. | *Both of Eramis' feet are mechanical prosthetics up to the ankle.
