Nokris, Supplicant to Savathûn: Difference between revisions
→False Idols
(→Pre-Golden Age: Nokris is referred to as "The second son", which implies he is younger than Crota. This is a fair compromise that doesn't take a side.) Tag: Mobile edit |

Nokris managed to evade permanent death following Xol’s defeat, only to be left abandoned within the crust of Mars. His attempts to reconnect with the Worm God were rebuffed, as it had already found more worth in [[Whisper of the Worm|his slayers]]. Dejected, Nokris sought entry into the [[Ascendant Plane]], using a fragment of Xol’s remains to force open a gate. He lured fireteams of Guardians under the pretence of resurrecting Xol into slaughtering him and his revenant Hive, gaining enough power from their acts of violence to feed Xol's remains enough to use its power and pierce a hole into the Sea of Screams through which his soul could slip into. | Nokris managed to evade permanent death following Xol’s defeat, only to be left abandoned within the crust of Mars.

However, the trickery he used attracted the attention of his [[Savathûn, the Witch-Queen|aunt]]. Although expecting to be used as nothing more than a simple pawn, Nokris struck a bargain with her after Savathûn offered him a place in her Court and acknowledged his value in being able to overturn the Sword Logic and those bound by it. As Savathûn sought to elevate herself from the Darkness, which she was chained to by the Sword Logic, she desired Nokris’s knowledge of Necromancy. In exchange for his secrets, she would grant him access to the [[Quria, Blade Transform|Dreaming Mind]] so that he could learn how to [[Taken|Take]] himself. Savathûn also foresaw the arrival of the Pyramids in Sol and so she instructed him to interfere in any of their attempts to communicate with the Guardian. | However, the trickery he used attracted the attention of his [[Savathûn, the Witch-Queen|aunt]].
