Assaulting [[The Tunnels]], the Guardian fought through hordes of Cabal Red Legion until eventually reaching the [[Orobas Vectura]], the [[Cabal Carrier]] of Thumos. Fighting through lines of Blood Guard Security, the Guardian eventually fought their way into the [[Echion Control|bridge]] of the carrier where they faced Thumos along with two [[Blood Guard Close Protection|body]] [[Blood Guard Bulwark|guards]]. Despite the skill of the Guard and the Unbroken, the Guardian vanquished them all, obtaining the keycodes to Thumos' ship and using it to infiltrate The Almighty despite an attempt from the Red Legion at defending the [[Harvester]]. Blood Guard members faced The Guardian on both the sun-destroying vessel and [[The Immortal]], Ghaul's personal flagship, yet all perished, unable to prevent the Guardian in their advance and vanquishing of Ghaul in the reclaimation of the Last City. | Assaulting [[The Tunnels]], the Guardian fought through hordes of Cabal Red Legion until eventually reaching the [[Orobas Vectura]], the [[Cabal Carrier]] of Thumos.
