*A fire team led by the famed Titan, [[Kabr, the Legionless|Kabr]], lands on Venus and breaches the [[Vault of Glass]], hoping to destroy [[Atheon, Time's Conflux|Atheon]], along with whatever secrets the Vex have hidden there, and return to the City in glory. The assault is a disaster, as Kabr's team encounter the [[Templar]], whose impregnable shields and powerful weapons force the team deeper into the Vault of Glass. Here they encounter the Vex [[Gorgon]]s which obliterate much of the remaining Guardians.

In the end Kabr does not die but is assimilated by the Vault. In his last act Kabr creates the [[Aegis]], a weapon capable of piercing the Templar's shields, so that future fire teams will not meet his fate.
