When the Guardian ventured to the [[Pyramid]] ship on [[Europa]], a rogue Cabal force led by [[Valus Dralgur, the Exiled]] sought to pillage the vessel for any artifacts that could be used against [[Xivu Arath, God of War|Xivu Arath]]. The Operation was not sanctioned by Empress Caiatl, allowing the Guardian to cut their way through the Cabal expedition without the worry of destabilizing their alliance with [[Imperial Cabal|the Empire]]. Despite the Cabal's attempts to jam the Guardian's progress and even attempting to destroy the Darkness statue deep within the Pyramid, the Guardian was successful in communion with the statue, after killing Dralgur.<ref>'''Bungie (2021/5/11)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: [[The Witch Queen]] - [[The Communion]]''</ref> | When the Guardian ventured to the [[Pyramid]] ship on [[Europa]], a rogue Cabal force led by [[Valus Dralgur, the Exiled]] sought to pillage the vessel for any artifacts that could be used against [[Xivu Arath, God of War|Xivu Arath]].
