On the night of the [[Ghaul's coup|coup]] that deposed him, Emperor Calus was arrested and quietly ushered aboard The Leviathan, where [[Dominus Ghaul]] and his co-conspirators intended him to remain in exile in perpetuity. The Leviathan's navigation system was locked onto a course that would take it far from the Cabal Empire's domain. After many centuries, the system failed and the ship progressed no further; it had come upon a great expanse of nothingness, and could not plot a course through a place that did not exist. It was here that Calus claimed to have encountered something that overawed him, potentially the [[Darkness]] itself, and resolved to become its herald. With the navigation system unlocked, Calus charted a course back to Cabal territory, collecting [[Shadows]] along the way to enact his revenge against his usurpers. Following Dominus Ghaul's death during the [[Red War]], The Leviathan arrived in the [[Solar System]] and began consuming the planetoid [[Nessus]]. | On the night of the [[Ghaul's coup|coup]] that deposed him, Emperor Calus was arrested and quietly ushered aboard The Leviathan, where [[Dominus Ghaul]] and his co-conspirators intended him to remain in exile in perpetuity.

The Vex mind was only removed through the intervention of a [[Guardian]] fireteam. After the death of [[Xol, Will of the Thousands]], the Red Legion, led by [[Val Ca'uor]], attempted to take control of The Leviathan for Red Legion use and kill Emperor Calus, only to be stopped by a fireteam of Guardians. | ||
