most of this idea stems from what Mithrax said in the Queenbreaker lore tab, specifically this quote in particular: [quote]I will Kell the mind-open Eliksni.[/quote]
now, this got the gears turning for me as i immediately started thinking of names for a Fallen House allied with the Guardians, led of course by Mithrax. eventually i settled on House of Dawn, as opposed to the current House of Dusk. House Dusk is the Fallens last ditch effort for survival, as they're quite literally going extinct, hence the name Dusk (the sun is setting for their species as they slowly die off.) On the other hand, House Dawn is the opposite. it's a new beginning for them, as they set foot on the road to redemption.
House of Dawn would have a very similar structure to other Houses, but would do away with most of the barbaric and humiliating practices, such as docking the lower arms of Dregs. they would also do away with Ether Rationing (as for how they would do this, i'm not quite sure yet. it would either have to do with the Traveler, or through some other means.), both as a means to return to their former glory.
most of the Houses ranks would be filled by Fallen that defected from House Dusk, Fallen who are open-minded like Mithrax (Mithrax himself would have a different title, now being known as "Mithrax, the Starcatcher", referencing the legend mentioned in the lore tab for Dreg's Promise). as for Banner/robing coloration, the only color i can think of would be Orange. i can't think of a design for a banner either, so if someone would like to help with that it would be greatly appreciated
so yeah, this is my idea for House of Dawn! let me know what you guys think in the comments!

If it was me I would call Mithraxs Kell of house tale untold.

What if it leads to a hostile takeover?

If there's a House of Dusk and a House of Dawn, I will call the Eliksni Azura's Folk (or Azurahmer) [spoiler]yes it's an Elder Scrolls reference...[/spoiler]

sounds like a really good idea and I would put money on it happening eventually seeing as how the fallen are become much more friendly to us overall. the banner would probably either a symbol of the city and a fallen symbol together or one of the old house symbols. and the ether production could easily be increased massively with the resources of the city being put towards building more servitors, though there would still have to be ether rationing so that they wouldn't grow to tall we'd only want them all as big as a captain at most so that we wouldn't have to remake all of the infrastructure to accommodate larger and larger fallen.

Bump, Guardian. Eliksni would be pleased... fighting for their goal, redemption with the Great Machine.
