Caiatl became the new ruler of the Cabal Empire after the demise of Dominus Ghaul during the [[Red War]]. While making preparations in her war room to lead her fellow Cabal into a new age, Caiatl contemplated her bitterness towards Calus and Ghaul in lieu of their failings. She blamed her father for delving their people in vice and luxury, and Ghaul for his obsession with the [[Traveler]] and its [[Light]]. However, she also credited Calus for instilling within her a active imagination due to all the stories and plays he had subjected her to as a child, and now Caiatl planned on utilizing that imagination to save the Cabal and forge a better future for her people. She intended for this new future to be of war and conquest of rival nations under her direction so that the Cabal would rule the galaxy once more.<ref name="HA">'''Bungie (2020/3/10)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: [[Season of the Worthy]] - [[Heir Apparent]]''</ref>

Standing in Caiatl's way of full control of the Cabal Empire was her father Calus, who had emerged from his exile shortly after Ghaul's death in the [[Solar System|Sol System]]. She directed her own emissaries to eliminate one of her father's [[Shadows of Calus|Shadow]] agents operating in the [[Human]]'s solar system that was using [[The Fourth Horseman]], an infamous Cabal killer, to eliminate remaining Red Legion personnel.<ref>''' Bungie (2020/3/10)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: [[Season of the Worthy]] - [[In Rides A Pale Horse]]''</ref>

To aid in her ambitions, Caiatl began attempting to rally the remnants of the Red Legion back to her side and exhorted all loyal Cabal across the Sol System to prove themselves by capturing Calus. Although the remnants of the Red Legion on [[Earth]], [[Nessus]], and the [[Reef]] responded to her call and offered tribute, they could not comply with her orders as with the arrival of the [[Pyramids|Black Fleet]] to that system, the ''[[The Leviathan|Leviathan]]'' disappeared without a trace.<ref>'''Bungie (2020/11/20)''', ''[[Weblore]]: [https://www.bungie.net/en/Explore/Detail/News/49747 Immolant Pt. 2]''</ref> She dispatched [[Caiatl's Emissaries|emissaries and scouts]] to the system, however, they began to report abandoned Red Legion camps with signs of internal conflicts.<ref>'''Bungie (2020/11/10)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: [[Beyond Light]] - [[Vanguard Communications]]''</ref> Additionally, a [[Wrathborn|mysterious disease]] of [[Hive]] origin began to spread amongst the fringes of the Cabal empire.<ref>'''Bungie (2020/11/10)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: [[Beyond Light]] - [[Wild_Hunt_Armor_(Titan)#Wild_Hunt_Helm|Wild Hunt Helm]]''</ref>
