On the anniversary of the [[Battle of Six Fronts]], the [[Vanguard]] discovered that all of their outer defenses, satellites, and outposts went dark in the cover of a storm. In a sudden bombardment, the Red Legion severely devastated the Tower, but the Vanguard survived in Zavala's [[Ward of Dawn]], and mobilized against the invasion. As the Legion's fleet assaulted the City, a massive aircraft latched onto the Traveler. During the chaos, the [[Speaker]] was swiftly captured by the Red Legion, leaving the City and its Guardians questioning his whereabouts. Civilians were successfully evacuated, but the Vanguard was quickly overwhelmed. | On the anniversary of the [[Battle of Six Fronts]], the [[Vanguard]] discovered that all of their outer defenses, satellites, and outposts went dark in the cover of a storm.
