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 sworn into her grandfather's [[Court of Oryx|court]] and 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.

Alongside her sisters Besurith, Kinox, and Voshyr, the Daughters of Crota took over leadership of the unguided [[Hidden Swarm]] and began construction of the [[Scarlet Keep]], where they conducted experiments at the [[Pyramid (Luna)|structure]] lying beneath the citadel using the forbidden [[Cryptoglyph]]. | ||
Unable to accept a world without their King, Hashladûn and her sisters enacted a plot to recreate their deceased grandfather in the form of a phantasmal [[Nightmare]]; a necessary violation of the [[Sword Logic]] since the Taken King was never succeeded by his killers. While the Hive had lack the ability to bring the Nightmares to reality, they instead opt to use the traumas of [[Eris Morn]] and the [[Guardian]]s that killed Oryx to create Nightmares of their worst enemies. | |||
