This questline is huge. You have to collect 45 out of 50 calcified fragments, beat the entire King's Fall raid and play many missions. However, at the end of the day you will earn one of the best weapons available at the moment; the Touch of Malice, an exotic scout rifle which is really amazing.
Ok, so here are the mainsteps and some little explanations. It may happen that these steps come at you in different order depending on what you have already done (collect / visit) in the game.
You can check how many fragments you have collected while being in Orbit when you select the destination Saturn -Dreadnaught.
Step 1: Collect one Calcified Fragment and return to Eris Morn in the Tower
You will find Calcified Fragments only in Dreadnaught areas, there are 50 fragments total in the game. For a location guide of 46 / 50 fragments (4 fragments still undiscovered as of 09/27/2015) have a look at the end of this solution.
Step 2: Eris Morn will give you the first quest called Shattered Past which requires you to collect 5 more calcified fragments. After you have found these 5 fragments, return to Eris Morn.
Step 3: The next quest called Hunger Pangs with the Step "Promethean Code (heroic)" is unlocking after you have collected 15 calcified fragments.
Go to Bunker War-4 and kill the Taken Centurion at the end of the mission, after you have done so, go back to Eris Morn.
Step 4: Collect 30 calcified fragments and the Hunger Pangs The Undying Mind quest is unlocking.
Play in this special version of the Undying Mind Strike until you reach the final boss fight against the Undying Mind. Shoot the boss' health down to 50% to trigger the second reinforcement wave. Morgath appears with these reinforcements. Morgath should appear near one of the little caves at the right side of the boss area. The problem is, the Vex fight against him so you have to be fast enough and kill him before the Vex kill him (If you fail, restart the boss fight).
Step 5: After you have the Essence, talk with Eris in the Tower and go inside the King's Fall raid to trigger the next quest called The Old Hunger Form the Ritual. (Go in Raid and leave directly to the Orbit, thats enough)
For this quest you have to defeat the whole King's Fall raid Bosses (Warpriest / Deathsingers and Oryx)
Step 6: After you get all 3 items, talk with Eris again to get the next quest step. Here she needs you to collect 25 Wormspore, 50 Hadium Flakes and 50 weapon parts for her.
Wormspore and Hadium Flakes (only in random chests) can be found in all Dreadnaught areas in the game, the best way to do this is patrol mode and farming chests and wormspores. You obtain weapon parts when you dismantle weapons.
Step 7: Collect 45 fragments to unlock the next quest step called Hunger Pangs Fear's Embrace.
The last mission in on Phobos, besides Mars. Play the mission until you reach the circle room with the Echo of Oryx inside, shoot down the Echo to 25% and the wizard appears. Kill the wizard and get the essence. Return to Eris for a last time and claim your Touch of Malice. Congratulations, Guardians.

Great guide! You should also add this link into your solution as well. User Sjlu on Reddit created this site that shows which fragments you are missing:

1.First you will need to complete the shattered past quest from Eris. To do this you must collect 5 Calcified Fragments. once the quest has been complete you need to collect another 10 more to make it up to 15 Calcified Fragments, once you have done this she will give you the Hunger Pangs quest. The first thing that you will need to do is go and kill Bracus, a special Taken Centurion at the bottom of the Salt Mines in Bunker WAR-4.
2. Next you are going to need for this quest is a fire team to do the raid "kings fall" once you have the fire team you need to kill the following bosses:
Warpriest
Golgoroth
Deathsingers
3. Collect 25 Wormspore, 50 Hadium Flakes and 50 Weapon Parts to form the frame.
4. Once you have done this you will need 45 Calcified Fragments which might require searching for them I recommend using this http://destinyghosthunter.net. Once you have done this you will get a quest where you have to return to Phobos to kill Mar-Zik, the Blightcaller, a Taken Wizard. then hand in the quest and you are done.

Don't forget, there's also a splinter quest to kill a special Taken enemy during the Nexus Mind raid. You need to do that quest for the first Essence of the Feast and you won't be able to select the Mar-Zik mission until you do.

Despite the achievement description saying you need to complete "The Old Hunger" you will complete The Old Hunger in the process of doing Hunger Pangs, and both quests need to be complete to unlock the achievement.
This questline is triggered by the Calcified Fragment collectibles. After you collect various numbers of them, new parts of the quests will unlock. Follow these steps:
- Collect 1 Fragment and bring it to Eris. (1/50)
- She will give you the "Shattered Past" quest to find 5 more. (6/50)
- Collect 9 more fragments to unlock the "Hunger Pangs" quest. Complete the Heroic mission. (15/50)
- Complete the quest "The Old Hunger" by collecting three items from the bosses in the King's Fall raid. You can get the Blade of Famine from the Warpriest, the Shroud of Ir Anûk from the Deathsingers, and The Ravenous Heart from Oryx. Give these to Eris, and then she asks for 50 Weapon Parts, 50 Hadium Flakes, and 25 Wormspore.
- Collect 15 more fragments to unlock the next section of the Hunger Pangs quest to kill a special enemy in the strike The Undying Mind. (30/50)
- Collect 15 more fragments to unlock the next section of the Hunger Pangs quest to kill a special enemy in the Fear's Embrace mission. (45/50)
Speak with Eris after killing the final special boss to unlock the achievement and receive the Touch of Malice exotic weapon. There are 50 total Calcified Fragments, of which currently 46 have been found. Use this guide to find them. They are also now tracked at Destiny Ghost Hunter so you can quickly see which you are missing.

Prerequisites:
- Complete “The Taken King” questline.
FYI, you'll have to complete more than just "The Old Hunger". This will unlock once you get the exotic scout rifle Touch of Malice. The path to get Touch of Malice is a long path, so this will be broken down into steps to make it easier to follow.
- After completing "The Taken King" questline, complete the mission "Dread Patrol".
- Find one Calcified Fragment on the Dreadnaught. Like with the dead ghosts, use destinyghosthunter.net.
- Speak to Eris and begin "Shattered Past".
- Find five Calcified Fragments on the Dreadnaught.
- Return to Eris and turn in the quest. Accept "The Old Hunger" if you have not already.
- Return to the Dreadnaught and collect a total of 15 Calcified Fragments.
- Speak to Eris and begin the quest "Hunger Pangs".
- Complete new version of "The Promethean Code" with the additional end sequence to kill Bracus.
- Speak to Eris. If you have not had "The Old Hunger" offered to you, it should be offered by now.
- Collect more Calcified Fragments to give you a total of 30/50. Speak with Eris to continue the quest.
- Complete the new version of "The Undying Mind" Strike on Mars. Like with "The Promethean Code," you have a new target, Morgath. Unlike Bracus, you only have to kill Morgath. You don't have to complete the rest of the strike. Morgath appears at the end of the strike in the same room as the boss on the right side from where you enter the area. Do not kill the boss before killing Morgath.
- Speak to Eris and then collect more Calcified Fragments reaching a total of 45/50. Speak to Eris again.
- Complete the new version of "Fear's Embrace". This is similar to "The Undying Mind," but you must kill Mar-Zik. You don't need to kill the Echo, but you must kill Mar-Zik before killing the Echo.
- Speak to Eris again.
- At some point after accepting "The Old Hunger", complete King's Fall. You will collect items from the Warpriest, the Daughters (Deathsingers), and Oryx on your first time through the raid as long as you have the quest active.
- Collect 25 Wormspore, 50 Hadium Flakes, and 50 Weapon Parts on the Dreadnaught. A Hunter with Nightstalker and the Keen Scout perk active makes this a breeze.
- Speak to Eris to acquire the Touch of Malice.
