It was during this time that [[Emperor Calus]], in exile aboard his [[Leviathan]], discovered them. He invited the Clipse to join his Loyalists. When they refused, Calus turned to conquest. The Clipse planetary defenses and moon-based interceptors proved no match for his gigantic starship, and his legions invaded the planet itself, led by a [[Shadows|Shadow]], [[Valus]] [[Valus Nohr|Nohr]].<ref name = "Mask of Rull"/><ref name = "Chassis of Rull">'''Bungie (2017/8/9)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: PlayStation 4, Activision Blizzard, [[Armor_of_Rull#Chassis_of_Rull|Chassis of Rull]]''</ref> The battle to take the Clipse capital lasted for weeks, but Nohr ultimately destroyed their forces.<ref name = "Greaves of Rull">'''Bungie (2017/8/9)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: PlayStation 4, Activision Blizzard, [[Armor_of_Rull#Greaves_of_Rull|Greaves of Rull]]''</ref> | |||

Victorious, Calus now began delivering aid to the Clipse homeworld, giving them everything they needed to finally win their endless war.<ref name = "Gauntlets of Rull"/> However, he could not repair their atmosphere.<ref name = "Shadow's Mark">'''Bungie (2017/8/9)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: PlayStation 4, Activision Blizzard, [[Shadow's Mark]]''</ref> | |||
