A grand ceremony was held inside the [[Halphas Electus]] where every Legionnaire inside the tank had come to salute him for his promotion and anointing. Ignovun saw it as the appointment of his lifetime as he was given his weapon and its ammo, silver armor that shone in the light, and his helm crafted by the Psions that contained their "very will" that would allow him to harness Solar Psionic abilities. He would be told throughout the course of the ceremony his expectations and what he was fighting for - the control of [[Nessus]], vassalship of the Vanguard, and glorious honor of the Cabal. Yet upon the ceremony's end, when he was left alone in the arena, Ignovun felt doubt. He thought back to the [[Dominus]] of recent past and how [[Dominus Ghaul|he]] had reasoned the [[Light]] like any weapon upon an opponent could be [[Red War|disarmed]]. Ignovun thought him wrong, believing it was from death not the Light [[Guardian]]s drew their power. However, it was also then he mused on [[Ixel, the Far-Reaching]]'s ravings and came to some considerations he had not before. He realized the Vanguard must have mortality brought to them if the Cabal are to triumph over them.<ref>'''Bungie (2021/2/9)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: [[Season of the Chosen]] - [[Weapons|Weapon lore]]: [[Threaded Needle]]''</ref>
