Hashladûn began as an abnormally large and strong [[Thrall]], ''"huge of crest and thick of arm"''. Viewing this as excessive, her father Crota ordered her ritually mutilated ''"in the old way of floods"'' in order to reduce her to a normal size and strength, and sent a hundred Thrall, ten [[Knights]], and an [[Ogre]] to retrieve her. Hashladûn fought off the entire force, but was left exhausted; after that, Crota himself came for her, impressed but unrelenting, and took her to a floodplain deep within the [[Ascendant plane]], where she was impaled and "flooded" five times with various caustic and harmful substances. | Hashladûn began as an abnormally large and strong [[Thrall]], ''"huge of crest and thick of arm"''.

After the five inundations, Hashladûn broke free from her impalement, starving, wounded, and much reduced, and crawled back to Crota's throne world. On witnessing her, Crota stated: ''“You are great now, and you cannot love Me. For the parts of you that were Mine have been taken from you; the parts that were [[Oryx|His]] remain.”'' With all ties to Crota severed by the floods, and therefore rendered closer to Oryx, Hashladûn was banished from Crota's throne forever. | After the five inundations, Hashladûn broke free from her impalement, starving, wounded, and much reduced, and crawled back to Crota's throne world.

It is largely unknown what role Hashladûn played in her father's plans and conquests during the Hive's arrival in the Solar System but following Crota's fall, she was presumed dead. In truth, she hid beneath the [[Moon|Lunar surface]] and plotted her revenge against the [[Guardians]] for the deaths of her father, mother, and grandfather. | It is largely unknown what role Hashladûn played in her father's plans and conquests during the Hive's arrival in the Solar System but following Crota's fall, she was presumed dead.
