It is unknown how much of a fleet Dead Orbit has developed, although they reluctantly allow the Consensus and Vanguard make use of it for defensive purposes despite it's arsenal and firepower, however, they had little influence at the time, as they could have met the Red Legion fleet head on.<ref>[https://www.ishtar-collective.net/entries/fleet?highlight=dead+orbit Dead Orbit vs Red Legion]</ref> | It is unknown how much of a fleet Dead Orbit has developed, although they reluctantly allow the Consensus and Vanguard make use of it for defensive purposes despite it's arsenal and firepower, however, they had little influence at the time, as they could have met the Red Legion fleet head on.<ref>[https://www.ishtar-collective.net/entries/fleet?highlight=dead+orbit Dead Orbit vs Red Legion]</ref> | ||

After the events of the [[Endless Night]] and the assault of the Last City by the [[Vex]] during [[Lakshmi-2]]'s failed attempt to overthrow the Vanguard, Dead Orbit decided to finally leave the Last City. Everyone loyal to them or associated with them left as well, including New Monarchy, which had participated in the failed coup attempt.<ref>'''Bungie (2021/5/11)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: [[Season of the Splicer]] - [[Quests (Destiny 2)|Quest]]: [[As Prophesied]] - [https://www.ishtar-collective.net/interactions/ikora-rey-as-prophesied Speak with Ikora Rey]''</ref> | |||
