{Cinematic}

Fade in to a view of the twin Martian moons, Phobos and Deimos, and the gaping hole left by Mars's absence. Piloting their ship, the Guardian arrives within the local orbit of Deimos.

Commander Zavala: The discovery of these mysterious beings we now call the "Shadowkeepers" and their connection to the Darkness is a breakthrough. Eris Morn is working with Ikora Rey and Osiris to form a plan to address this, and I believe they will see this through. In the meantime, the Hidden and Variks are investigating the activities of the Cabal. The loss of their planet, Mars to the Black Fleet is worrisome. More intelligence is required.

Ghost: Zavala, what exactly does this have to do with what's happened on Earth?

Zavala: We don't know much, but I can tell you that your encounter with Eobard Thawne was just the beginning of what's about to be a major battle. Rendezvous with the Stranger and find out what's going on, Guardian. We cannot allow this threat to compromise our safety and spread any further.

{Cutscene}

The camera fades in and pans down to the Aerodrome, where the Guardian previously escaped. The area is completely silent, and now overrun with Shadowkeepers. Dead Guardians blanket the field. A perspective view shows the members and followers of The Shadowkeepers—resurrected villains from the past—all gathering around the portal. Large black flames hove into view as The White Angel prepares for her partner's return. The Black Swordsman walks over to his allies, surveying the scene. All of them kneel to the floor in reverence.

Phoenixaro Uchihamaki: Welcome home, my King.

The Swordsman sneers down at the newly Shadowkeeper life forms. A Lord Shadowkeeper demonstrates his ability by splitting into two copies of himself, still kneeling. A Cherubic Shadowkeeper lowers her head.

The Black Swordsman: Finally... at long last... After 7 centuries, I am finally free.

Malcolm Merlyn: We've been waiting a long time for your return, Kirito, but I think you'll be surprised to find out that Eobard and Morgana had already lost their lives in the process.

Kirito: Not quite, Malcolm. With technology like this, anything is possible.

Malcolm Merlyn smirks as Eobard and Morgana approach near Kirito, looking over as their apparent corpses reveal themselves to be, in fact, the dead bodies of Lightbearers.

Eobard Thawne: I see you've pulled out a trick on our enemies, Kirito.

Morgana le Fay: If I didn't know any better, I'd say that you've managed to have the Guardians do our work for us.

Kirito smirks as he walks towards the audience.

Kirito: The Guardians... they think that they can kill us so easily and destroy everything we've built, but eventually, they'll come to understand that the Darkness can't be destroyed.

Sasuke Uchiha: And how do you know that?

Kirito: The Darkness showed me the truth about how the universe had fallen prey to the corrupt and the greedy with selfish needs ever since the Traveler arrived... and about how we can rewrite not only reality, but also history... all so that we can save our people and usher in a new era. A better world.

-The IP-C SC Capital Star-class Eclipse is one of two ships of the class whose specific function is for long interplanetary journeys. Being over four thousand five hundred meters long (the engines and fuel tanks adding the extra eight hundred meters) these ships are largest and most technologically advanced spacecraft ever built. They have to be for the cargoes they carry are infinitely precious to the City, being the difference between life and death. They also have to be big to carry all of the mining equipment and technology needed for the Titanian Expedition to function, not to mention carrying upwards of over three thousand men and women, and as such they are partial hybrids of space-station and spacecraft.
+==Trivia==
+(TBA)
-When launched the IP-C SC Capital Star-class ships are sent outward from the system in a long, elliptical flight path in order to reach Titania which is pulled about on a somewhat erratic yet stable (and therefore predictable) course by the trinaries’ gravitic influence, making it impossible to reach by normal craft. Fortunately these orbital stresses do not cause any significant surface distortions, and the Expedition is safe.
-A rough description for the IP-C SC Capital Star-class vessels can be summed up as an unnaturally long grappling hook or harpoon. Four vast wings nearly six times the size of six tractor-configured engines fan out as spines in an X-wing alignment, glowing red when the primary engines have fired. A series of lesser, progressively shorter spines line out behind the primary ones. When not in use they fold down along the ship’s longitudinal axis. A mast sticks out at the extreme forward end, containing the revolutionary photon sail.
-Connecting these massive instruments of propulsion and ventilation is a long tensile truss, the body of the harpoon. Roughly halfway along its thermally-shielded length are the cargo-pods which carry the ship’s primary payload: the energy crystals of Titania. Immediately afterward are the robotic arms and ship ports, arranged in a complicated array designed for ferrying goods and men to and from a planetary surface. Further along, two-thirds the tensile truss, are the twelve crew modules which deliver miners and soldiers to Titania, along with the ship’s crew to keep her running.
-Placed strategically along the tensile truss are the all important “pebble-killers” and drone modules. These defend the ship from threats that may endanger the vessel. Toward the ship’s “aft” are the communications and solar arrays, and finally the five immense Whipple shields, which protect the vessel when the laser array propels her up to speed. A centrally-mounted axial cannon protrudes out from the center of the Whipple shields for long-range combat, capable of launching projectiles at immense speeds.
