As they journeyed to Mars, Rahool contacted them and explained that the Cryptarchy had wanted to gain access to Freehold's secrets for years and begged them to prevent the Cabal from destroying any of its technological wonders.<ref>'''Bungie (2014/9/9)''', ''[[Destiny]]: Playstation 4, Activision Blizzard, [[The Buried City]]''</ref> While the Guardian prevented the Cabal from gaining access to technology there, the [[Warmind]] [[Rasputin]] took control of the machines there and locked out the Vanguard and Cabal from accessing them. Rahool was pleased the Cabal were stopped, but disappointed that Rasputin was not sharing the information within. Despite that setback, he remained optimistic about the other technology within Clovis Bray that humanity could access once more and hoped it signified the dawn of a new age for the City.<ref>'''Bungie (2014/9/9)''', ''[[Destiny]]: Playstation 4, Activision Blizzard, [[Grimoire]]: [[Grimoire:Activities/Story:_Mars,_Meridian_Bay#The_Buried_City|The Buried City]]''</ref> | ||
===The Taken War=== | |||
Upon learning of Queen [[Mara Sov]]'s supposed demise during the [[Battle of Saturn]] at the onset of the [[Taken War]], Rahool decided to use the instability the Reef was experiencing as an opportunity to open new lines of communication between the City's cryptarchy and the Reef's. He wrote a letter to [[Master Ives]] expressing his condolences for the loss of Mara, but then informed Ives that he and the other City cryptarchs had been withholding knowledge about the history of Earth and its colonies, along with other sensitive secrets about the origins of the Awoken and others like them, from the Reef due to their fears of what the Queen would have done with that information. He suggested that with the Queen gone, they would be willing to share that knowledge for the Reef's own secrets and the promise of working together in future studies.<ref name="OEATR">'''Bungie (2018/9/4)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: [[Forsaken (expansion)|Forsaken]], PlayStation 4, Activision Blizzard, [[Lore]]: [[Lore:Dusk_and_Dawn/The_Awoken_of_the_Reef#Of_Earth_and_the_Reef|Of Earth and the Reef]]''</ref> | |||

Once the City was liberated, Rahool returned to his duties at the new [[Tower (Destiny 2)|Tower]], lending his decryption skills to the Guardians. Not long after returning to the City, Rahool received a reply to the message he had sent more than two years ago to Master Ives. The Reef cryptarch insulted Rahool for his blatant attempt to take advantage of the Reef's grief and asserted that the Reef held far greater knowledge than anything that could be found on Earth, although he accepted the offer to exchange information between the two cryptarchies.<ref name="OEATR"/> | ||
