Biography
Zavala is a former competitor in the Crucible. As Commander, multiple factions have approached him to try and gain his support. In particular, he was approached by New Monarchy via Executor Hideo, and was offered a place in the City's royalty if he had joined their faction, but he refused, knowing the past about the City's monarchy (see quote below). He also turned away Arach Jalaal when he pleaded with him for support.
