Legacy
During the Chaos War, Amatsu-Mikaboshi destroyed the dreaming causing the living to fall into a slumber and then shattered the underworld leading to the dead rising into the world. Moira awoke alongside many of the slain members of the X-Men where she found her old love Banshee. These X-Men rallied under the leadership of Thunderbird as they attempted to take stock of their situation. They uncovered clues within Destiny's diaries that contained information about the crisis they faced when they came under attack from the demonic Apache trickster god Carrion Crow.

House of X
It was said that the version of Moira that had been killed was simply a Shi'ar golem meant to take her place. Faking her death allowed Moira and Xavier to run some preliminary testing with resurrection protocols, later perfected by the creation of the Five. Moira remained hidden from the world for a long time, her continued survival presumably only known by Xavier and Magneto. Together with Xavier and later Magneto, who eventually returned to the fold, she continued to work towards her plans. (Powers of X v1 #6) Moira and Xavier tasked several technopath mutants such as Cypher and Sage with creating a system called Sleeping Giant to monitor for Nimrod technological thresholds being reached and/or the attempted creation of a Mother Mold that was a replicating, adaptive Sentinel factory that was self-aware and capable of creating Master Molds. Xavier and Magneto would eventually task the X-Men with destroying the Mother Mold and preventing the creation of Nimrod. (House of X v1 #3) Moira, Xavier and Magneto eventually moved their plan to unite mutantkind into its next phase, through the creation of the mutant nation of Krakoa. Xavier extended an invitation to all of mutantkind, and managed to buy international recognition and a global amnesty for mutants in exchange for several Krakoan miracle-drugs. (House of X v1 #1) A hidden area known as Moira's No-Space was created deep within Krakoa, where Moira dwelled. Prior to the first Krakoan Quiet Council meeting, Professor X and Magneto revealed to Moira the council line-up. Moira was suspicious about Emma Frost not having named her extra council seat yet, while Mystique only agreed to join the council on the condition that they bring Destiny back to life.
