When the [[Red Legion]] invaded the solar system and conquered the [[Last City]], imprisoning the Traveler in a [[Traveler Cage|cage]] to strip the Guardians of their [[Light]], Sloane evacuated [[Earth]] with hundreds of other Guardians and refugees under the leadership of Commander Zavala. While leaving Earth, the fleet intercepted a encoded [[Cabal]] transmission. | When the [[Red Legion]] invaded the solar system and conquered the [[Last City]], imprisoning the Traveler in a [[Traveler Cage|cage]] to strip the Guardians of their [[Light]], Sloane evacuated [[Earth]] with hundreds of other Guardians and refugees under the leadership of Commander Zavala. Sloane reported to Zavala aboard one of their ships in order to begin planning their resistance to the Cabal invasion.<ref>'''Bungie (2018/7/31)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: [[Solstice of Heroes]], PlayStation 4, Activision Blizzard, [[Rekindled Solstice Armor (Titan)#Solstice Plate (Rekindled)|Solstice Plate (Rekindled)]]''</ref> While leaving Earth, the fleet intercepted a encoded [[Cabal]] transmission, but were unable to decrypt it.<ref name="Hope">'''Bungie (2017/8/9)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: Playstation 4, Activision Blizzard, [[Hope]]''</ref> They settled upon [[Titan (moon)|Titan]], one of the moons of [[Saturn]], as their rally point. Sloane and Shipwright [[Amanda Holliday]] aided Zavala in crafting a message to send to the scattered Guardian forces throughout the system. She found the Commander's messages to be void of hope and made it sound like the war was already lost, but found herself unable to criticize Zavala beyond asking him to be more inspiring, although Amanda had no such issues and raised their concerns to him. Sloane backed up Amanda, pointing out that they were not using most of their fuel to reach Titan to simply hide and that Zavala's message needed to include a plan for the Guardians to rally behind. Zavala did not change the message, and ordered them to send it out as it was.<ref>'''Bungie (2018/7/31)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: [[Solstice of Heroes]], PlayStation 4, Activision Blizzard, [[Rekindled Solstice Armor (Titan)#Solstice Greaves (Rekindled)|Solstice Greaves (Rekindled)]]''</ref> | ||
With their Light, the Young Wolf easily cut through the Hive and reached the control center. Sloane's hopes were raised by the Guardian's success, and she told Zavala that they would be able to start planning their offensive soon, but the Commander was unconvinced it would be so easy. Sloane directed the Young Wolf to clear out the Hive's breeding grounds, and they eliminated [[Ubara, Hive Prince]] to secure the area. Sloane and Zavala landed at the control center to greet the Guardian, and she gave them a grateful nod as she entered the control room to set up the Guardian's temporary headquarters.<ref name="Hope"/> | Upon the fleets arrival at Titan, the Vanguard and refugees landed at the [[New Pacific Arcology]] to set up base and plan their counterattack, however they found that the [[Hive]] had established a stronghold there. Under Zavala's command, Sloane sent two teams to scout the Arcology to determine the extent of the Hive's infestation. Both teams were wiped out in the mission, but reported back enough information to confirm nearly the entire Arcology was under Hive control. Sloane reported the situation to Zavala, but believed even without the Light that the Guardians could storm the Arcology and wipe out the Hive, stating that if they needed they could burn down the entire place to drive them out. Her commander did not even turn to look at her, merely lamenting that he had been a fool to come to Titan and that their strength could not match the Hive. Increasingly concerned about Zavala's demeanor, Sloane told him he was not wrong and that Titan had all the resources and technology they needed to strike back at the Cabal if they could defeat the Hive, but Zavala cut her off and ordered all forces pulled back to the landing area they secured before dismissing her.<ref>'''Bungie (2018/7/31)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: [[Solstice of Heroes]], PlayStation 4, Activision Blizzard, [[Rekindled Solstice Armor (Titan)#Solstice Mark (Rekindled)|Solstice Mark (Rekindled)]]''</ref> | ||
Eventually, the [[Iron Lord]] known as the [[The Guardian|Young Wolf]] arrived, claiming to have regained their Light. Despite Zavala's worry, Sloane asked the Young Wolf to help them secure the facility and prepare their forces by capturing the control center in [[Siren's Watch]]. With their Light, the Young Wolf easily cut through the Hive and reached the control center.
