After an unknown amount of time, Katabasis and Bahr'Toran began capturing Scorn from the [[Tangled Shore]] under Qinziq's directions. He was unaware of the purpose of this, only that he and Bahr'Toran were to capture as many as they can for two days straight. Bahr'Toran believed Calus would use the Darkness to reclaim [[Torobatl]]. Katabasis arrived at Qinziq's lab and inquired about the reasoning behind the procurement of Scorn, she elaborated that they had a natural connection to the Darkness which Calus would use a vessel for communing when they arrived at the Anomaly.<ref>'''Bungie (2020/2/16)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: [[Season of the Chosen]] - [[Lore]]: [[Lore:Captain's_Log#ENTRY_4_-_Well_of_Absence|Captain's Log - ENTRY 4 - Well of Absence]]''</ref>. After six weeks of capturing Scorn and fending off Hive, Katabasis and the crew anchored the Glykon off the gravity of [[Phobos]], close to the gaping maw where [[Mars]] once was.

Katabasis began to experience persistent nightmares. He dreamed about the [[Red War]] and the [[Cabal]] completely decimating the [[Tower]], he fled for a long while before being revived by Gilgamesh and they survived alone together.<ref>'''Bungie (2020/2/16)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: [[Season of the Chosen]] - [[Lore]]: [[Lore:Captain's_Log#ENTRY_7_-_Ire|Captain's Log - ENTRY 7 - Ire]]''</ref> | Katabasis began to experience persistent nightmares.

This attempt at communing with the Darkness managed to cross the Glykon into the orbit of Mars and the Glykon was greatly affected as a result. Not only that, Calus had suddenly disappeared from the ship.<ref>'''Bungie (2020/2/16)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: [[Season of the Chosen]] - [[Lore]]: [[Lore:Captain's_Log#ENTRY_8_-_Acheron's_Wall|Captain's Log - ENTRY 8 - Acheron's Wall]]''</ref> After drifting endlessly for weeks, [[Egregore]] had begun to grow on the interior of the ship, Scorn had infested the ship, and Katabasis was now generally unaware of where Gilgamesh had mostly gone. Qinziq posterised that the Crown was the item keeping them within distance of the Anomaly, and Katabasis had dug up an Imperial security key in order to gain access to it. Katabasis was aware at this point that Calus had abandoned the crew on the Glykon. The fireteam managed to make it to the bridge with reanimated Scorn chasing them down the hallway. Katabasis sealed the door where all the Loyalist soldiers were inside alongside Qinziq and Bahr'Toran. Katabasis opens the viewing chamber and Qinziq begins to pull the Glykon backwards outside of the Darkness' reach by communing with the Crown. The metal strains and the Scorn manage to enter the viewing chamber as a result, where Katabasis and the remaining Loyalists fight against the onslaught of Scorn. Two abominations cut through the rank and file soldiers, where Katabasis and Bahr'Toran took on both of them as a last attempt to protect Qinziq. She is engulfed in black flame as she could not hold on anymore. Katabasis knew this is where they would die.<ref>'''Bungie (2020/2/16)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: [[Season of the Chosen]] - [[Lore]]: [[Lore:Captain's_Log#ENTRY_10_-_Blood_in_the_Barrel|Captain's Log - ENTRY 10 - Blood in the Barrel]]''</ref> | ||
Gilgamesh told Katabasis that 'it took days to find a safe place to bring [him] back' as the [[Locus of Communion]] was following them at every chance. Katabasis made an effort to try and bury the Cabal bodies, but he could not manage to bury them all. They generally tried to keep hidden, using the smuggling compartments throughout the ship. Gilgamesh continued to wander off for days at a time and when Katabasis woke, Gilgamesh would not tell him how long it had been since he was asleep. Katabasis' morale had depleted exponentially since the last time Gilgamesh and him had spoke, and he told Gilgamesh to leave him dead until they are both free and rescue had arrived.<ref>'''Bungie (2020/2/16)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: [[Season of the Chosen]] - [[Lore]]: [[Lore:Captain's_Log#ENTRY_11_-_Sullen|Captain's Log - ENTRY 11 - Sullen]]''</ref>. Gilgamesh had confirmed that he had been tempted by the Darkness, realising that he was just a leash to life, and revived Katabasis while he was surrounded by Scorn. Gilgamesh told Katabasis to sever his light, and threatened to resurrect him to be killed over again until Katabasis did so. Katabasis eventually shot Gilgamesh.<ref>'''Bungie (2020/2/16)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: [[Season of the Chosen]] - [[Lore]]: [[Lore:Captain's_Log#ENTRY_12_-_Debtor's_Knife|Captain's Log - ENTRY 12 - Debtor's Knife]]''</ref> | |||
Some time later, Katabasis was found dead and strung up by the Egregore fauna on the bridge of the Glykon Volatus, above the viewing chamber. | |||
