There is love in the dark tunnels.

Alak-Hul/Verok, 700 words, M-rated.

It's so unbearably funny to me that about a half of named happy couples in Destiny are Hive. Like out of humans? We know Zavala and Cayde had partners, there's O14, Devrim and Marc, Ana and Camrin, Mara and Sjur, and the somewhat-loving but also Very Dysfunctional marriage of Sylvie and Clovis II Bray. For Eliksni all we know about is Eramis and Athrys. And Hive? Ah boy, there's the infinitely cursed love story of Hiraks and In Anânh whose fruit were so plentiful they almost overran the Shore. There's Alak-Hul, whose love for Verok Eris cites as the reason why he rose against Oryx. Also he slew a legion of Thrall in her name, aww. The whole reason, and I don't say this lightly, for why the weapon Thorn even exists is Rezyl Azzir killing a Knight who happened to be the fiancé of a Wizard Xyor and sticking the bones to his gun, and out of rightful anger for murdering her betrothed Xyor cursed him. She also changed her name to "Unwed" to represent her grief, which is a big thing considering the Hive system of naming things, definitions, reality-changing words and such; the Hive die all the time, and yet she *defined herself* with the death of her fiancé and her own abandonment as a result. And of course there's Omnigul, described as unending loyal to Crota, the embodiment of his Will (which is another crucial concept in the Hive culture and magic). When Lokaar tried to assassinate Omnigul, Crota grew so furious he chased her all the way to Oryx's court, and asked his father to kill her - although Oryx himself once said Crota had been taught to ask for nothing, and yet.

This love is war is love is war, and I'm very soft over it.

Apparently, the Hive once had some sort of civil war, and Alak-Hul, the Darkblade, led the rebellion against Oryx, along with his consort, Verok. When The Taken King finally defeated Alak-Hul, he imprisoned him in the sunless cell for all eternity. As guardians, we go in to take the Darkblade out before he rises as a new threat that’s just as bad as Oryx.
