As the struggle against Caiatl's Cabal continued, Zavala went out one night to clear his head with a stroll in the Last City's first garden, which he had helped dig centuries prior. He remarked to Targe that there was nothing better than a midnight stroll, but he sensed his Ghost's silent disapproval and acknowledged that he should rest, but after inhaling deep he claimed that he believed this counted. As he wandered the garden, Zavala reflected on how far the City had come and all they sacrificed. He then stared up at the Traveler and softly noted his amazement at how they had survived for so long thanks to its gifts. As he and Targe stared at the Traveler, both had the same thought on their minds: was it still watching over them, or were they on their own against the Darkness?<ref>'''Bungie (2021/2/9)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: [[Season of the Chosen]] - [[Quests (Destiny 2)|Quest]]: [[Eternal Blazon]]''</ref> Zavala's reverie was soon interrupted when he felt eyes watching him, and he turned to see a the face of Uldren Sov watching him from the shadows of nearby bushes. Before he could react Uldren shouted a warning and Zavala heard a snapping noise in the trees behind him. Spinning around with his gun in hand Zavala swiftly killed a [[Psion]] that had been preparing to assassinate him. Believing the assassin was sent by Caiatl, Zavala turned back to where he saw Uldren but now saw nothing. Zavala told the Young Wolf of what transpired, unsure if what he saw had been real, and admitted that after having trouble sleeping he was sure he would not be able to rest at all now.<ref>'''Bungie (2021/2/9)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: [[Season of the Chosen]] - [[Quests (Destiny 2)|Quest]]: [[Haunted]]''</ref> | As the struggle against Caiatl's Cabal continued, Zavala went out one night to clear his head with a stroll in the Last City's first garden, which he had helped dig centuries prior.

Ikora visited him in the Tower's courtyard in the wake of the assassination attempt. After not responding to her attempts at conversation, Zavala admitted after a long silence that he kept seeing "his" face. Ikora believed he was talking about Cayde, but Zavala corrected her and admitted it was Uldren's. He stated that he felt like he kept seeing him in crowds and explained what had happened in the garden. Zavala recalled the stories [[Eva Levante]] told during the [[Festival of the Lost]] about spirits of the dead haunting the living. He assumed that he was falling back on folklore to explain what he saw as the truth would be too difficult to confront otherwise. After a few more minutes of silence, Zavala stated that they would know if Uldren was back. Ikora placed a hand on his shoulder and reassured him that they would know. | Ikora visited him in the Tower's courtyard in the wake of the assassination attempt.
