(This chapter takes place after mission "Homecoming".)

Aboard the Red Legion Command Ship"Vosiveraus", Excalibur (the Guardian)- along other Guardians- was being he prisoner by the Cabal Red Legion. They were draining the Light out the Guardians and the Ghosts they captured. In his attempt to stop the Red Legion, the Human Titan was captured by Dominatior Ghaul himself, that was three days ago.

Excalibur was in a cell specially designed for Guardians, while his Ghost was in a stasis field next to him. Then he heard gun shots, then the door blew open and a Cabal came in (he couldn't tell what type it was though) freed him and his Ghost, and carried them both away. The Guardian passed out on the way.

The Shattered Flagship "Tyraus"

Excalibur woke up on a soft bed, what looked like a medical room. He didn't now where he was, but he felt weak. Then he aw a woman(at least he thought it was a woman) she had black fur and claws. She turned and he saw her big piercing eyes and said something in a language he didn't understand, then spoke again with her hand touching her ear 'must be talking to someone else' he thought. Then he heard a hissing sound and then the door opened and Ghost came in, followed by two Cabal Legionaries. Excalibur got up and into a defensive position," No! Wait! Their on our side" Ghost said confusing the Guardian then he materialized Excalibur's armor and weapon "grab your gear, you'll need it to breath the ships atmosphere" the Guardian put his (Crotas End Raid) armor on and put his Necroatism auto rifle on his back (it was the only weapon he had left).

As the group walked down the halls, Excalibur saw not just Cab- sorry Shatary and Psions, but many different race. Some look like birds, others look like fish, and others looked just weird. They didn't look at the Human or the Ghost at all.

Once they reached the bridge, Excalibur saw a Colossus talking to a hologram, but couldn't make out who it was. When he was finished talking, he turned around to see the Guardian and the Ghost. Then spoke in the Shatary language, which Excalibur didn't understand, but his Ghost had learned all the languages on the ship from its AI "Failsafe" and translated for him," welcome to the Tyraus. I am Volkar: leader of the Shattered" he then explained what the shattered are and what their cause was. The Shattered were formed half a century ago in hope to reform the Empire into one of honor.

It turns out that the Tyraus was the emperors personal flag ship, but was stolen by the Shattered when their rebellion began. In order to stand a chance against the Red Legion, they would need more than one warship and two dozen volunteers, no they needed the aid of the rest of the Guardians. The Shattered managed to track the evac shuttles to an encampment in the European Dead Zone. A place called the "Farm"

If you don't know what the Farm is? Shame on you, and look it up.
