With the city secured, Ghaul sent his forces across the system to secure even more planets.

On Mars, Ghaul sent a greater force of the Red Legion to reinforce the beleaguered Cabal legions battling the Vex, which turns the tide after centuries of conflict. The Legion actually manages to cripple the Vex on Mars by destroying the Gate to the [[Black Garden]], breaking the Vex's hold over [[Meridian Bay]].

On [[Io]], they began to drill into the planet to access the latent Traveler energies within the moon, investigating the possibility to harvest and control the Light. However, their actions attracted the remnants of the Taken, catching the Cabal off-guard with a great many of them becoming Taken themselves.


The Dominus established a massive ship orbiting the sun, [[The Almighty|The ''Almighty'']], which projects a beam of energy directly into the sun to slowly destabilize it. With this, in the event the system continues to resist or when the Cabal are finished, the ''Almighty'' will cause the sun to go Supernova for system-wide annihilation.

Despite the loss of the City, the Vanguard sought to regroup what was left of their forces and launch a counterattack against the Red Legion to take back the Last City and free the Traveler. They planned to regroup on the moon of Titan but found that a new breed of Hive have already infested much of the planet, losing many Lightless Guardians in a failed attempt to drive the Hive off. This weakened Vanguard moral and their leadership splinters off into different areas of the system.

The Guardian at the Farm, following visions from the Traveler, traveled to the shard of the Traveler deep in a dangerously corrupted forest. After fighting through soldiers of a new Fallen House, the [[House of Dusk]], the Guardian was able to reach the shard and tap into its Light to regain their abilities. With their powers restored, the Guardian traveled to Titan to aid Commander Zavala and Deputy Commander [[Sloane]] in establishing a new base to prepare a resistance against Ghaul. In gaining the equipment needed to decrypt vital Cabal transmissions, they learn about the ''Almighty'' and its purpose. Despite Zavala's guilt in failing to protect the City and the danger of the ''Almighty's'' threat, his resolve and determination is restored thanks to the Guardian's efforts. To ensure their resistance is successful, Zavala needs his old fireteam: [[Cayde-6]] and Ikora Rey.

Tasking the Guardian to find them, they follow a lost transmission of Cayde's that leads them to Nessus. There, they receive the aid of a damaged [[Golden Age]] AI, [[Failsafe]], who gives them directions to find Cayde. Soon enough, they find that Cayde is trapped in a Vex time-loop after attempting to steal a Vex teleporter for the purpose of reaching Ghaul. After fighting the Vex and the Mind controlling the loop, the Guardian was able to free Cayde and convinces him to return to Zavala to form a resistance. Before departing, Cayde advises the Guardian to travel to Io, as he believes that Ikora would travel their to seek answers during trying times.
