===Hunt for the Witch Queen===
===Hunt for the Witch Queen===
Despite the "gift" Savathûn had given to Xivu Arath, the Hive God of War had begun to actively hunt her sister, at the behest of another, following the arrival of the Black Fleet in the Sol System. To save herself from her sister's wrath, Savathûn adopted the form of Osiris after he had become lightless when the High Celebrant killed his Ghost, [[Sagira]]. Knowing that her sister would never think to look for her in a place of the Light, Savathûn laid in hiding at the Last City, posing as the legendary Warlock, aiding the Guardians in their efforts against Caiatl's chosen champions and the [[Endless Night]] that plagued the Last City. However, after Lakshmi-2's failed conspiracy against the Fallen [[House of Light]] that had allied with Guardians, Savathûn fled to the Reef, meeting with the Awoken Queen, [[Mara Sov]]. The two queens would come to a bargain, in exchange for excising her worm, the Witch Queen would release Osiris. Further, Mara Sov required the Guardian's assistance in restoring the Dreaming City from the Ascendant Realm's corruption using the dimensional Ley Lines but also wished to prevent Xivu Arath from using the [[Blind Well]] and its dimensional properties to her advantage. To solve this and excise the worm in Savathûn, Mara Sov required her coven of [[Techeun]]s that once escorted her in the Ascendant Realm but became Taken after they were cornered Xivu Arath and her horde.

Xivu Arath's Horde, both Hive and Taken, would constantly battle the Guardians within the Blind Well, hoping to claim it for Xivu, as corrupting either the Blind Well or the Ley Lines would allow Xivu Arath to bring an "infection of war", as Mara Sov put it, throughout the universe. Her forces, under the control of one of Mara's [[Techeuns]] were able to infect the Ley Lines within the [[Shattered Realm]] which had appeared to be a fractured version of the [[EDZ]].

Xivu's forces would eventually take hold within another part of the Shattered Realm, this time being fractured regions of the Moon under the control of [[An Xohol, Jaws of Xivu Arath]]. At the time, Xivu had also sent in her various hordes under ''Pillager Warbands'' to stop the Guardian's attempts in locating the Awoken secrets within the Shattered Realm under the guise of Hive, Taken and Scorn.

On the day of the ritual to exorcise Savathûn's worm, Xivu Arath's brood, in a last ditch effort to capture her sister, launched a massive assault on the Dreaming City and attempted to overwhelm the Blind Well. Despite being unsuccessful in preventing the realignment of the Ley Lines, this would allow the Hive army to travel through the Ascendant Plane and begin swarming the Ritual Spire, in which the exorcism was taking place, until they were once again pushed back by the Guardians. Desperate to capture Savathûn, Kruutiks, [[Kholks, Taken of Xivu Arath|Kholks]], and finally [[Kelgorath, Risen from Bones]], forced their way into the Spire, followed by hordes of Xivu's forces, and attacked the ritual, but ultimately failed and were defeated at the hands of the Lightbearers.
