Following the Darkness's arrival, the worlds of Mercury, Mars, Titan and Io have gone dark, forcing Zavala to recall most lightless civilians behind the Last City's walls for their protection. To gain any more knowledge on the Darkness, Zavala orders countless Guardians to scout out the System, with the Young Wolf heading to [[Europa]] to survey the [[Pyramid (Europa)|Pyramid]] located there. With there, the Guardian discovered a large Fallen army, the [[House of Salvation]], powered by a force related to the Darkness. Further, they located [[Variks]] and, despite his unwittingly role in Cayde-6's death, they agree to help the Eliksni scribe to combat these dark Fallen and their leader, [[Eramis]], the Kell of Darkness.

As the Young Wolf worked with Variks in dismantling Eramis's powerbase and safeguard fleeing Eliksni to the [[House of Light]], they learned the ability to wield the same power as Eramis, the ability of [[Stasis]], granting them the power needed to combat the Dark Kell and her forces. As Eramis began to lose her lieutenants to the Guardians, she traveled to the Cosmodrome but was spotted by Vanguard scouts. With this information, Zavala makes a personal trip to Europa to inform the Young Wolf, meeting them at the [[Elisabeth Bray|Exo Stranger]]'s camp in [[Beyond (Europa)|Beyond]]. Admitting that he understood things less every day, Zavala suspected that Eramis was getting desperate and sought to find something from the House of Devils to aid her. He also cautioned the Young Wolf of "fighting fire with fire" with Stasis and that while he understood why they were doing it, he disapproved of them using something related to that which seeks to bring another Collapse.

Following the fall of Eramis, Zavala began making plans to secure Europa and finish off the rest of the leaderless House of Salvation. He negotiated with the Reef to grant temporary immunity to Variks for as long as he assisted them on Europa, although Zavala felt uncomfortable with the situation due to the Scribe's role in Cayde's death. Zavala requested that the Young Wolf report to him in the Tower and briefed them on the situation. Although glad Eramis was gone, he did express continued concern over using the Darkness. Determined to secure the Golden Age secrets on Europa from their foes, Zavala ordered repeated focused strikes against House Salvation to keep them disorganized.<ref>'''Bungie (2020/11/10)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: [[Beyond Light]] - [[Quests (Destiny 2)|Quest]]: [[Beyond Light (Quest)]] - [https://www.ishtar-collective.net/transcripts/loose-ends-tied Loose Ends Tied]''</ref>

The Guardians would continue their vigilance over Europa and it would lead them to conflict with [[Kridis, Dark Priestess|Kridis, the Dark Priestess]], who took command of what remained of the House of Salvation. Variks has the Guardian confront the Dark Priestess, both to remove a powerful leader and to prevent her from bringing Eramis back, as she claimed to have the power to do so. Regardless of her devotion to Eramis's cause and her power over Stasis, the Guardian is successful in slaying Kridis, removing one of the last of Eramis's council.

When the Young Wolf returned from slaying Kridis, Zavala thanked them for their efforts but turned his concerns from the Fallen to the continued use of Stasis. Noting that Guardians were not immune to corruption and that they had been divided by pursuit of power before, Zavala was determined to see that they remained devoted to the Light. Believing that if they compromised the Vanguard would break and already seeing fractures forming over the use of the Darkness, Zavala declared that the Vanguard's official position was that the Guardians could not use Stasis and asked the Young Wolf to help show the people of the Last City the way through their example.<ref>'''Bungie (2020/11/10)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: [[Beyond Light]] - [https://www.ishtar-collective.net/transcripts/quest-defender-of-light-dark-priestess Defender of Light]''</ref>
