===Corrupting the Warmind===
After failing to capture the Witch Queen, Xivu Arath's Horde would lie low for some time as the Guardians themselves dealt with Savathûn and her newly formed [[Lucent Brood]], who both now wielded the Light. However, as [[The Witness]], the true master of the Black Fleet, drew near, Xivu Arath sought to prepare the system for its invasion and thus began to target the Warmind [[Rasputin]] and his formidable Warsat Network. Further, the Witness gave Xivu Arath and her Horde free rein on punishing [[Eramis]] and her [[House of Salvation]] for failing to acquire the Relics of [[Nezarec]], mainly driving many of its members into becoming Wrathborn or killing lieutenants and resurrecting them as Scorn to serve Xivu Arath, such as [[Praksis]].

However, as the [[The Witness|Witness]], the true master of the Black Fleet, drew near, Xivu Arath sought to prepare the system for its invasion and thus began to target the Warmind [[Rasputin]] and his formidable Warsat Network.

Though Xivu Arath and her Horde managed to acquire access to some of Rasputin's defense protocol and entrance to his Submind Vaults through the use of Eramis' House Splicers, teh whole of the Network remained out of their reach. To achieve their goals, Xivu Arath directed her forces to target one of the Warmind's chief creators, Clovis Bray I on Europa. The Guardians however, stymied their efforts by routing the Exoscience Labs where Clovis was stationed and brought him into the plan to restore the Warmind and counter Xivu Arath. The Bray patriarch directed the Guardians to gather Rasputin's subminds to aid in Rasputin's restoration, leading them to infiltrate each of the Submind Vaults and slay their defenders, most notably [[Warwatcher, Eye of Xivu Arath]] and Kelgorath, who Xivu Arath had restored and made a Darkblade.

During the [[Operation Ahamkara|operation]] to stop the [[The Witness|Witness]] and prevent them from completing the [[Final Shape]], the Guardian would help [[Micah-10]] to do what they could to heal the [[The Traveler|Traveler]] and helping to locate several lost [[Ghost]]s. One of these [[The Ascendant|missions]] involved finding and saving Akasha, a Ghost that was systemically scanning Awoken territory for years and whose last known location was the [[Dreaming City]]. Together with [[Crow]] and [[Glint]], the Guardian would traverse the portion of the [[Ascendant Realm]] where [[Priest of Incaru|Priests of Incaru]] communed in the realm and finally locate Akasha, thus recovering her data. [[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 [[The Pale Heart|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 strenght for the war that would follow the [[War against the Witness]]<ref name="desperation">'''Bungie (2024/6/4)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: [[The Final Shape]] - [[The Ascendant]]''</ref>.
