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]]. Their actions created seismic activity, however, which drew Eris Morn's attention towards the Pit, prompting her to send a fireteam to investigate.<ref>'''Bungie (2019/10/29)''',''[[Destiny 2]]: [[Shadowkeep]], [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Hev8IF4neTw The Deepening Wake]''</ref>

At the [[Cradle of Damnation]] deep in the Pit, the Guardians confronted the reanimating Zulmak, strengthened and protected by the [[Darkness]] within the nearby crystal.

At the [[Cradle of Damnation]] deep in the Pit, the Guardians confronted the reanimating Zulmak, strengthened and protected by the [[Darkness]] within the nearby crystal. Zulmak was also accompanied by [[Accursed Swordbearer]]s and his followers under the title of [[Oracle of the Broken Blade|the]] [[Omen of the Broken Blade|Broken]] [[Might of the Broken Blade|Blade]]; all of whom clashed with the fireteam and the latter perished with the Swordbearers' [[Cleaver]]s turned against them. Dropping orbs of [[Void]] energy, the Guardians would use said orbs against the undead Knight by depositing them into the crystal empowering him; doing so causes the crystal to begin radiating [[Darkness]] energy and make Zulmak vulnerable to the Guardians' attacks. The fireteam were then successful in killing him and thwarted the Hive's ritual.<ref>'''Bungie (2019/10/29)''',''[[Destiny 2]]: [[Shadowkeep]], [[Dungeon]]: [[Pit of Heresy]]''</ref> Eris Morn, however, would remain wary that the Hive would attempt the same ritual again in the future.<ref>'''Bungie (2019/10/29)''',''[[Destiny 2]]: [[Shadowkeep]], [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=genP9gQOaL0 Lingering Torment]''</ref>
