Not long after [[Emperor Calus]]'s exile, the [[The Leviathan|Leviathan]] observed a fleet of [[Cabal warship]]s battling a war moon on the border of the empire. As the moon was too large to be destroyed by direct bombardment, warships cloaked by [[Psion]] powers attempted to land drills and troops on its surface to deliver a [[Cabal Heavy Munitions|planet-cracker]] into its depths.<ref>'''Bungie (2019/7/4)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: [[Penumbra]], Playstation 4, Activision Blizzard, [[Lore]]: [[Lore:Confessions#Entry_II|Entry II]]''</ref>

Much later, [[Emperor Calus|Calus]] and his [[Loyalists]] encountered another war moon. Within they found the [[Crown of Sorrow]]. In an attempt to bring the Hive under his control, [[Emperor Calus|Calus]] created [[Gahlran, the Sorrow-Bearer]] for the sole purpose of wielding the [[Crown of Sorrow]]. Upon donning the [[Crown of Sorrow]], [[Gahlran, the Sorrow-Bearer|Gahlran]] was corrupted by the [[Hive]] magic placed within the [[Crown of Sorrow|Crown]] by [[Savathûn, the Witch-Queen|Savathun]], turning him against [[Emperor Calus|Calus]]. Subsequently, [[Emperor Calus|Calus]] called upon the Guardians to re-enter the [[The Leviathan|Leviathan]] to kill [[Gahlran, the Sorrow-Bearer|Gahlran]].
