Besides the Faction Wars, the City had been involved in two major conflicts during it's earlier years. The first being the [[Battle of Six Fronts]], when four [[Titan]] orders defended the Last City's walls against six [[Fallen|enemy]] approaches. The second and far more devastating conflict was the [[Battle of Twilight Gap]], where the full might of the [[Fallen]] Houses descended upon the City with the goal of retaking the [[Traveler]], but were eventually defeated by the Guardians after [[Fallen]] reinforcements from the [[House of Wolves]] failed to arrive due to the Queen of the [[Reef]], [[Mara Sov]]'s intervention.<ref name="TCA"/> | Besides the Faction Wars, the City had been involved in two major conflicts during it's earlier years.

In recent years, the Guardians of the Last City began to reach out and take a more active role in pushing back the hordes of alien invaders threatening the [[Sol system]]. They [[Vanguard]] engaged in a war of resistance against [[Oryx, the Taken King]], in response to his arrival in the system, and deployment of [[Taken]] troops to multiple planets, including [[Earth]]. This conflict would later be known as the [[Taken War]]. Fortunately, the Guardians were able to push Oryx and his Taken back, culminating in a raid that breached Oryx's [[Ascendant Realm]] on the [[Dreadnaught]]. This raid resulted in the deaths of Oryx's most powerful servants and the Taken King himself. However, these actions did not bring the war to an end, as the [[vanguard]] continued fight | In recent years, the Guardians of the Last City began to reach out and take a more active role in pushing back the hordes of alien invaders threatening the [[Sol system]].

The Last City and the [[Vanguard]] did not initially take an active role during the events of [[SIVA Crisis]], the conflict instead being handled directly by [[Lord Saladin]] of the [[Iron Lords]], [[Shiro-4]], and the [[Guardian]]. Forces of the City did however later intervene when a Fallen plot to destroy the [[Bannerfall]] tower and leave the City vulnerable was discovered. With the [[Vanguard]]'s help, the [[Guardian]] was able to drive out the Fallen, thereby securing the tower and by extension, the entire city's Wall.<ref>'''Bungie (2015/9/15)''', ''[[Destiny]]: [[Rise of Iron]], PlayStation 4, Activision Blizzard, [[A Symbol of Honor]]''</ref> | The Last City and the [[Vanguard]] did not initially take an active role during the events of [[SIVA Crisis]], the conflict instead being handled directly by [[Lord Saladin]] of the [[Iron Lords]], [[Shiro-4]], and the [[Guardian]].
