Worse, Eris believed that Calus is doing this at the behest of The Witness in bringing about a second Collapse. If this succeeded, the Lucent Brood would be able to launch a full-scale invasion of Earth.

The Cabal language is Ulurant. Conquered worlds were enriched with ceremonial gold to ease defeat and afford the opportunity to challenge officers for representation within the Cabal's leadership. As u/Falkenhausen23 pointed out in his thread yesterday, Francis Parker Yockey is a bit of a nonsensical pick for the leader of the extreme right in America. Despite now serving as a Bracus, Caiatl allowed Saladin to continue operating the Iron Banner, having grown interested in the Guardian tradition, stating that she had some ideas of her own. In a short time, Saladin would settle in as a member of Caiatl's War Council, earning himself quite the reputation amongst the Cabal, having been challenged in a Rite of Proving six times in a week, and emerged victorious in all of them. WRITTEN BY DR MICHAEL SALLA ON DECEMBER 19, 2021. [49] In due time, the Cabal's response would arrive. However, to avoid making another conflict with the Cabal, Zavala arranged a meeting with Empress Caiatl in the Tower Hangar, where the Cabal Empress engaged in a heated argument with Lord Saladin before both the Guardian and Crow entered the meeting. The Cabal are always looking for ways to increase their power, and have devoted a lot of time to finding and adapting the technology of other races.

As the Guardian worked with Ikora in combating the Lucent Brood, they needed to hone and strengthen their Deepsight abilities to further traverse Savathn's Throne World. Prior to the start of the Taken War, the Vanguard speculated that a new task force, a "second fleet" led by the Skyburners, was being assembled at Phobos for the purpose of invading Earth. While the remains of the legendary sun destroyer plummeted into mountains close by with a small chunk chipping off a piece of the Tower, the Guardian's home was saved and the Cabal's latest scheme had been reduced to rubble. Ghaul also sent a powerful force to Mars to reinforce the Cabal forces there, finally driving the Vex from Meridian Bay and destroying the portal to the Black Garden, destroying most of the Virgo Prohibition, and all other places in the solar system.[50]. In time, Caiatl's most trusted Psion was able to glean truth from the Hive Lieutenants: the Lucent Brood were stockpiling stolen Light within the Cosmodrome but are having trouble getting a precise location as a barrier is blocking them, hiding their activities. Now knowing the identity of their foe, the Vanguard worked on disrupting Yirix's operations as much as possible, leading the Guardians to attack another base sending out Psion propaganda that is eroding Caiatl's legions. Katabasis piloted the ship to the Reef where he rendezvous with Calus in a Loyalists vessel and it was there where Loyalists brought the Crown of Sorrow. When a Cabal army goes to war it is exiled from the Empire, and is not permitted to return unless victory is secured. Ghost also noted on Mars that their security systems are absurdly easy to exploit, claiming they were less complex than DOS, which is a family of basic operating systems that were antiquated even before the human Golden Age. Just as Caiatl was about to kill Crow herself, Saladin Forge stepped in and offered his own life in Crow's place. Though the Guardian slew the Dominus, the ritual failed, with Caiatl's Nightmare denouncing Caiatl as not the one he had trained when he first rose to power. Caiatl explained that she was beholden to the will of her people and that after the loss of Torobatl she could not retreat from the Sol System empty-handed in order to preserve their honor. Osiris looked into its disappearance but found nothing hinting as to why the Leviathan left or where it was headed. As they progressed, the Guardians faced off against the Nightmare of Gahlran, Sorrow Bearer.

The Cabal are a warmongering race of giant bipedal humanoids with a heavy-set, rhinoceros-like appearance. Ghaul and his Red Legion launched his coup in the dead of night, arresting Calus and his Loyalists. There was still time to conduct one last, desperate, severance ritual at the seat of Calus's power, to dislodge him from the Pyramid before the change became permanent. However, conducting a ritual of such magnitude would require the aid of Caiatl, Crow, Zavala and Eris herself altogether. Eris directed the Guardian to the Lunar Pyramid, where they discovered a trail of deceased Loyalists, with Egregore lining their esophagus. On more recent events, The Cabal was responsible for a terrorist bombing of a 2011 festival in Taiwan that killed 32 people and an 2014 attack on a convoy headed to the Chinese Embassy in Jakarta, killing another 17 people.

Taking her blade, Caiatl stabbed the Nightmare of Ghaul, transforming it into the Memory of Ghaul, with it acknowledging her accomplishments, taking note that where he sought to conquer the Light, he burned for it, but Caiatl was able to utilize it through her War Council, stating that she had surpassed him. Despite her insistence in not taking part in a Hive ritual, Caiatl would find herself haunted by her former co-conspirator, Dominus Ghaul.

These transmissions are intercepted in the Adventure Invitation from the Emperor. The disadvantage is that power struggles can easily emerge when a committee member shows weakness. Some time later, following the end of the Red War, in the vacancy that was left behind by Ghaul's death, Val Ca'uor took advantage of the power vacuum and quickly asserted himself as the commander of the Red Legion.

[46] This presumably provides Cabal troops with the incentive and motivation needed to endure long-term campaigns, though they can still wear down eventually. Over the next few weeks, Guardians would battle Loyalists Cabal, allied with Scorn and their own Nightmares, on the Derelict Leviathan, as they collected the energy needed for the severance rituals. Red states that the map is lacking the Cabal's new operations. Meeting with Vanguard Commander Zavala and former commander Osiris (Savathn in disguise), Caiatl reasons that even though the Hive and the Pyramids have been pushed back, they have not been stopped and offers an alliance, bringing together the might of her empire to bear with the Guardians' Light and together, they can destroy their shared foes. His Empire was an immense military power, but valued willpower, learning, gentility, and subtlety. [21], The rise of Calus as Emperor would mark a paradigm shift in Cabal society as he began a campaign to reorganize the empire from its militant roots into one favoring art and philosophy. The Cabal operates through series of political assassinations or terrorist acts set to either manipulate the worlds nations into doing the Cabals bidding or simply weaken and topple governments or regimes that pose as adversaries for the organization. [20], During this time, Calus moved the Capital to Torobatl so it could be closer to his people, throwing parades daily as he bought from the local marketplaces. [13][68] However, they are indistinguishable from the males in gameplay, making the Cabal seem androgynous in human eyes. Legionaries are the foot soldiers of both armies, Phalanx is a military formation, and Centurions were officers in the army. The Cabal entered into a stalemate with the Hive for control of Hellas Basin, while the Guardians stopped their attempts at using Rasputin. The Guardians succeeded in thwarting numerous and desperate plots the Cabal planned to give them an advantage, from using Taken energy to strengthen their forces, to destroying Protheon, Modular Mind before they could utilize the Axis Mind as a weapon, and acquiring deadly weapons from Bracus Zahn and his disgraced forces. The capital city was quickly overtaken by Cryptoliths which emerged throughout its streets. Caiatl reminded Umun'arath that it was she who had taught Caiatl about how the bravery to defy death was what made soldiers. Disturbed as Umun'arath explained that she saw the future of the Cabal in the ways of the Hive and their lack of fear towards death. With their current state, it is possible they could turn to either Calus' Loyalists or, more likely, Caiatl's Regime. It also allows a reckless member to be removed.

The Blacklist Wiki is a FANDOM TV Community. Seeing this as folly, Eris had the Guardian follow Caiatl to the ritual location. In the wake of many destinations vanishing, Xivu Arath's Cryptoliths began corrupting many Red Legion Cabal just as Caiatl was beginning to rally the remaining remnants of the Legion through both the use of encrypted communications and blue emissaries. Nonetheless, with the recent discovery in the Admittance, Eris was able to figure out that Calus is seeking to become one with the Lunar Pyramid and claim its power. After eliminating the threat of the Almighty, the Guardian heads back to Earth to join the fight. She misinterpreted Eris' ritual as simply "conquest" of a foe and believed she was enough to take out the Nightmare of Ghaul.

After their crippling defeat at the Sundial, a contingent of the Red Legion, headed by the last remaining Psion Flayer, Amtec, decide to direct the Almighty into an ongoing collision into the Last City itself; disabling its propulsion engines and navigation systems despite the efforts of Zavala and Ana Bray. Though Caiatl refuses to take part in the ritual, she stood firm in leading the charge, claiming her armor is protection enough. Wishing to take the fight to the Cabal, the Vanguard saw an opportunity to strike a blow against the Cabal when Valus Ta'aurc, the infamous commander of the Siege Dancers, was seen in his Land Tank, Cerberus Vae III, stationed in the Valley of Kings. It is implied by Calus that if infant Cabal are turned out before they are developed enough to survive, it is possible for them to survive if a surrogate father is found. Around the same time, Calus, the Loyalists, and the Leviathan mysteriously vanished from the orbit of Nessus.
