On the night of the [[Ghaul's coup|coup]] that deposed him, Emperor Calus was arrested and quietly ushered aboard The Leviathan, where [[Dominus Ghaul]] and his co-conspirators intended him to remain in exile in perpetuity. The Leviathan's navigation system was locked onto a course that would take it far from the Cabal Empire's domain. After many centuries, the system failed and the ship progressed no further; it had come upon a great expanse of nothingness, and could not plot a course through a place that did not exist. It was here that Calus claimed to have encountered something that overawed him, potentially the [[Darkness]] itself, and resolved to become its herald. With the navigation system unlocked, Calus charted a course back to Cabal territory, collecting [[Shadows]] from various alien races along the way to enact his revenge against his usurpers.

Following Dominus Ghaul's death during the [[Red War]], The Leviathan arrived in the [[Solar System]] and began consuming the planetoid [[Nessus]].
Following Dominus Ghaul's death during the [[Red War]], the Leviathan arrived in the [[Solar System]] and began consuming the planetoid [[Nessus]].


Some time after The Leviathan began consuming Nessus, it sucked up a powerful [[Vex]] mind: [[Argos, Planetary Core]], which projected a shield to protect itself, while simultaneously clogging The Leviathan. The Vex mind was only removed through the intervention of a [[Guardian]] fireteam. After the death of [[Xol, Will of the Thousands]], the Red Legion, led by [[Val Ca'uor]], attempted to take control of The Leviathan and kill Emperor Calus, only to be stopped by another fireteam of Guardians.

Unlike previous raid locations, areas within The Leviathan are not given unique names as they load in. However, as with locations within a [[Crucible]] map, certain rooms and areas have a unique name that is displayed beneath the player radar.
