They actively work to defend the Sol System from the forces of The Witness, its various Disciples, and Xivu Arath,

History

The Coalition begins to form after signing an armistice with Empress Caiatl, integrating the House of Light into the Last City, and assisting the Awoken in rescuing the Techeuns from the forces of Xivu Arath. It would start with Imperial Cabal upon learning that Savathûn, the Witch Queen, has gained the powers of the Light from the Traveler and uses her Lucent Brood to steal Light from the Guardians. Although Crow's ineptitude almost placed the fledgling Coalition in danger, it remained strong thanks to the bravery of Saladin Forge and would continue to grow over time when Empress Caiatl tasks the Guardian to shut down Psionic propaganda instigated by Yirix and spread by Qabix, Insurgent. Empress Caiatl discovers the future where Neomuna is under assault, Emperor Calus's flagship, the Leviathan returns, Eramis, Kell of Darkness is freed her Stasis prison, and the Traveler is infected with Darkness from her Psions. She declares that the Coalition must remain united in order to stay vigilant, especially as the Witness begins to reveal itself and declared war with the forces of Sol and the Traveler itself. They would also work with Mara Sov to gain information about the Collapse from Savathûn's worm and stop the Scorn from taking over The Sunken Pyramid following the death of the First Disciple, Rhulk.

The Leviathan returns in the Sol System, but derelict heavily infested with Egregore, and in Luna's orbit. They receive intelligence from Eris Morn that Emperor Calus has begun communing with The Lunar Pyramid and has unleashed the Nightmares once intended as the Lunar Pyramid's security mechanism. She and the Guardian work together in order to sever Calus's connection to the Lunar Pyramid. They begin with Crow, who is facing up against the Nightmare of Uldren. They were successful when Crow turns his Nightmare into a Memory and learns from the Memory to not ignore his past as Uldren Sov. Then they turn to Zavala, who is facing up against the Nightmare of Safiyah, his former wife. He turns his Nightmare into a Memory when he lets go his grief for Safiyah and Hakim. Finally, they turn to Caiatl, who is facing up against the Nightmare of Dominus Ghaul. Unfortunately, since she doesn't have the protection against the Nightmares, she is vulnerable to its influence. After Eris gives her the protection needed, she is able to turn her Nightmare into a Memory and finally realizes she is more worthy than her idol in leading the Cabal Empire. The Guardian, Eris, Crow, Caiatl, and Zavala all begin to srrike, but Calus anticipates their arrival and has his forces ambush them. The Guardian makes their way to the Chantry of the Darkest Hour within the Lunar Pyramid and together with Empress Caiatl, faces the Herald of the Witness. Although they were able to to banish his influence from the Lunar Pyramid, they were too late in stopping Calus from a Disciple of the Witness.

The next to join the Coalition would be the House of Light. Upon learning that Eramis has rallied the old crew of pirates, Ketchkillers, and Skiffblades, the Guardian with the Drifter, The Spider, Eido, and Mithrax team up to prevent Eramis from acquiring the relics containing body parts of another Disciple of the Witness, Nezarec. They do so and help improve the Eliksni Quarter so Mithrax can use the relics to bring Osiris out of coma.

The forces of the Coalition would rally together as the threat of the Witness and its Disciples loom in the Solar System. After assisting the Bray family and Osiris in bringing Rasputin back online, Mara Sov informs the leaders of the Coalition that the usage of the Warsats would allow Xivu Arath's forces to invade Earth. In response, Rasputin is forced to sacrifice himself to not only destroy all of the Warsats but also prevent Eramis from successfully completing ABHORRENT IMPERATIVE and allowing Xivu Arath from commencing her invasion. The Traveler departs from Earth to confront the Black Fleet. In its absence, the Vanguard declared that the forces of the Coalition: the Guardians, the Awoken, the House of Light, and the Imperial Cabal will unite to stop the Witness and its Disciples together.
