Realizing she didn't have the means or the manpower to strengthen her connection to Ahsa, Sloane rigs together a distress signal aimed towards the Vanguard on Earth to get the aid she and Ahsa need. The Vanguard Coalition managed to receive her signal following the Guardians combating the Cabal [[Shadow Legion]] on [[Neptune]] and Earth. Zavala, exhilarated at the thought of his friend possibly still alive, assembles a team involving himself, the Guardian, Saint-14 and Lord Saladin to find her. After arriving and combating Hive and Taken serving Xivu Arath, the Guardian and Zavala found her one kilometer down in the methane seas. The Drifter was also present after hearing of Titan's return and provided aid in helping the Guardian reach Sloane's position. The group are shocked to see her condition but more so on first meeting Ahsa. Sloane brought them all up to speed that Ahsa could provide invaluable information regarding The Witness which convinced Zavala to approve of the operation, with Drifter providing his Gambit tech that can utilize the egregore coral to strengthen her physic connection to Ahsa, thereby allowing her to interpret her messages.

As the Guardians worked in gathering what they needed, Sloane was also brought up to speed on what has transpired while she was away, including how Lord Saladin now serves as Valus to the Cabal Empire of Empress Caiatl, something she was partially angry with, having not forgotten how the Red Legion under Dominus Ghaul had ransacked the Tower. Lord Saladin however, clarified that things have changed and if he can find a away to trust Ahsa like she asked him, then she can find a way to work with Empress Caiatl. Zavala would later return her old sword [[Crown-Splitter]] to Sloane which brought a smile to the Deputy Commander but another old friend of her, [[Aisha]], however, would arrive in person and tragically inform her thar [[Reed-7]] was killed during The Witness's assault over Earth which rattled Sloane but ultimately reminded her that she is still human.

After gathering what they needed for the Gambit tech, the Guardians worked with Sloane in finding the first sample of egregore coral found 5000 meters down in the methane seas but it was protected by a servitor corrupted by the Wrathborn, [[J4W-S, Wrath-Hunter Servitor]]. Sloane used herself as bait to lure the corrupted servitor away from the reef long enough for the Guardians to reach the area but would be plagued by the voice of Xivu Arath once more. Despite this, the Guardians managed to destroy the servitor and acquire the coral. With the sample and the gambit tech, Sloane is able to strengthen her connection to Ahsa as hoped, allowing her to interpret the first message which spoke of an "oasis in the desert" and "travelers whose journey had come to an end, "the first victims of the Witness". Though the experience left Sloane shaken, having felt Xivu Arath's thirst for battle, the Witness's cold rage and even the Taken's enmity, Sloane remains committed to the mission, determined to see Ahsa's messages delievered.

Zavala ultimately had to come clean with how much things have changed while Sloane was MIA and all of it shocked the Deputy Commander from Guardians wielding Darkness-related powers such as [[Stasis]] and [[Strand]], the House of Light living in the Last City, the Witch Queen's deception and her [[Lucent Brood]] being granted the Light, the Witness attacking the Traveler and most tragically, Amanda Holliday's death. The news of Amanda's death hit Sloane the hardest as they were close but Zavala could tell from the look in her eyes that she nonetheless buried that pain. Regardless of the news, Sloane soldiered on with the mission, with Saint-14 providing tactical as the Guardians dived into the seas once more to collect egregore coral. During the mission, Saint-14 tried to initiate a conversation with Sloane, trying to get her to open up about her experiences but the Deputy Commander was not responsive, instead wanting to focus on the mission something which Saint wholeheartedly agrees with. Despite Xivu Arath's continued demands and taunts, Sloane persisted allowing the Guardians to reach the sea floor, take out [[Kudazad, Binder of Savathûn]] and collect the coral. With it, Sloane interprets the second message which involved a "city of light" and a "silent god withholding a deeper truth" but the message takes a toll on her.
Zavala ultimately had to come clean with how much things have changed while Sloane was MIA and all of it shocked the Deputy Commander from Guardians wielding powers tied to the Darkness like [[Stasis]] and [[Strand]], the formation of an [[The Coalition|alliance]] against the Witness between the Vanguard, Empress Caiatl's Cabal Empire, [[Mithrax, Kell of Light|Mithrax]]'s [[House of Light]], and the [[Awoken]], Savathûn using the body of Osiris to infiltrate the Last City, her [[Lucent Brood]] being granted the Light, the Witness attacking the Traveler, the discovery of a [[Neomuna|city]] on [[Neptune]], and most tragically, Amanda Holliday's death.
