Two years after the [[Taken War]], the [[Cabal Empire]] launched a major invasion of Earth, headed by the commander of the [[Red Legion]] and emperor of the Cabal Empire, [[Dominus Ghaul]]. The Red Legion launched a massive surprise attack on the Last City, completely devastating the last bastion of [[Humanity]] and the [[Tower]]. During the inital attack, a [[Traveler Cage|massive cage]] of Cabal design was attached to the [[Traveler]], which constricted its power and allowed the Commander of the Legion, [[Dominus Ghaul]], to extract and use its [[Light]] for himself. This left Guardians cut off from the [[Light]], thus severely crippling their ability to fight back against the invaders. Many inhabitants of the City were killed during the invasion, and its subsequent occupation. <ref name="Last Call">[http://www.polygon.com/2017/3/28/15095770/destiny-2-first-teaser-trailer-video-bungie-cayde-6  '''Polygon''' - ''Watch the first teaser for Destiny 2'']</ref><ref name="Rally the Troops">[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZJLAJVmggt0 '''YouTube''' - ''Destiny 2 – “Rally the Troops” Worldwide Reveal Trailer'']</ref>

Several weeks after the [[Red Legion|Red Legion's]] occupation of the City began, a [[Vanguard]] counter-offensive led by [[Zavala|Commander Zavala]], [[Cayde-6]], and [[Ikora Rey]] liberated the city. During the final battle within the City, the leader of the Red Legion, [[Ghaul]], was killed and the stolen [[light]] was reclaimed by the [[Traveler]], which had awoken for the first time since the [[Collapse]]. [[The Speaker]] was believed to have been killed during the occupation. As the [[Tower]] had been destroyed in the battle, the Vanguard and many other vendors were forced to [[Tower (Destiny 2)|relocate]] until the old Tower could be renovated. Strikes against priority targets continued to be directed and authorized from this new position.<ref>'''Bungie (2017/9/6)''', ''[[Destiny 2]], PlayStation 4, Activision Blizzard, [[Chosen]]''</ref>
