One of Calus's pleasures was the coliseum, and one day, an albino gladiator named [[Ghaull]] made his first appearance there.

Ghaul launched his coup in the dead of night. With the Emperor too popular to simply execute, Ghaul, his Red Legion, and the Consul arrested Calus and an unknown number of supporters in his own court and exiled aboard [[The Leviathan]], taken far from the Empire along a pre-programmed course.<ref>'''Bungie (2017/8/9)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: PlayStation 4, Activision Blizzard, [[Midnight Coup]]''</ref> | Ghaul launched his coup in the dead of night.
