|name=House of Shadow

}}

===Overview===

Seeing heightened activity among the fabled old crews, naturally, the House of Shadow would take great interest in their operations and would begin the active crews or would disguise themselves as participating pirates, in tandem with Black Legion forces. Distressingly, they would discover that Eramis has returned after years of being trapped in Stasis and was in search of mysterious reliquaries empowered by [[Darkness]]. Curious about the importance of the relics and in an effort to deny their enemies control over them for whatever they plan, the undercover "pirates" of the joint coalition between the House of Shadow and Black Legion attempted to wrest control over these artifacts under the pretense that they were attempting to collect a greater bounty in an effort to study them. Despite their numerous attempts to seize control over them, the only one they managed to get their hands on, from [[Val'aug, the Brute]] after being convinced by Black Legion forces through obligation to borrow it, was claimed by the Guardians in an attack on their lairs. Nevertheless, Sumeragi researchers, as well as intelligence from spies in the House of Light, would discover that the relics belonged to [[Nezarec, Final God of Pain|Nezarec]], a long dead disciple of the Witness. Though the spies would confirm that the reliquaries were turned into a remedial formula for a now lightless Osiris, Nova would become unsettled as to how Eramis mysteriously returned and the mysterious objective of recovering these ancient reliquaries. Regardless, the House of Shadows would lose a considerable amount of their infiltration forces during the numerous [[Ketchcrash]] operations.

After the numerous losses taken during the events of the [[Season of Plunder]], the House of Shadow would go to ground and attempt to stay hidden, even with the tempting chance at pursuing Warmind technologies left behind by both [[Wrathborn]] and Guardian operations. However, in the final weeks of the conflict, as Eramis attempted to destroy the Traveler with the restored WarSat network, jumping at the opportunity to fulfill their master's objective, House of Shadow infiltrators would attempt to sabotage the coalition's attempt to protect the Traveler only to be denied as Rasputin's sacrifice would fracture it entirely.

After years of anticipation, the Witness and its forces would finally bring war to the Traveler and begin committed operations against the Vanguard. While the Black Legion were preoccupied with deciphering what has happened with [[The Veil]] and what has happened to the Traveler following its scarring by the Witness, the House of Shadow would begin coopting Pyramid tech into their arsenal, granting their forces shield generators and suppression devices to further reinforce their dark arsenal. Nevertheless, the House of Shadow would remain underground and avoid much of the conflict, instead keeping a prying eye on [[Shadow Legion]] operations from their covert dens and begin experimenting with their new equipment, already creating a new division within the House of Shadows, the Tenebrous Claws. Despite the common goal of the destruction of the Traveler and the Light, Nova would insist that the Sumeragi would remain independent from the Witness' forces, distrustful of its intents and how it seeks to bring forth the Final Shape.

==Cult of the Darkness==

|name= Cult of the Darkness

====The Haunted====

When word came in from the Black Legion that [[Emperor Calus|Calus's]] personal flagship, [[Leviathan (ship)|the Leviathan]], has returned and was making its way to the Earth's Moon, many within the Moon's numerous enclaves feared the ship was coming for the satellite itself, and so fled through their Ascendant plane pockets. However, instead, they found the ship merely parked outside the world's atmosphere and soon uncovered that the ship was actually drawing power from the submerged Lunar Pyramid below. While the House of Shadow and the Black Legion were engaged in covert research operations aboard the ship itself, the Cult surveyed the connection between the Pyramid and Leviathan, eventually learning of Calus's "ascendance" with the help of the Witness. Despite the intelligence the cult gleaned through the connection with the assistance of Hidden Swarm technologies, however, the Cult would mostly remain uninvolved with the incident.

====The Lost and the Damned====

Predictably, the Chaos Collective would have little influence over the war between the Awoken and Xivu Arath, but that didn't stop them from utilizing their window into the Vex domain in search of a new means of controlling it and attempting to find a way into the Ley Lines. However, during a joint operation with the Hive in their initial expedition of the Ley Lines, an Axis Mind, Sylvanos, Cultivating Mind, would mysteriously and inexplicably go missing, causing great concern within the Collective and effectively ending their expeditions into the dimensions.

===Leadership===

They are more complicated than more collective due to having multiple Axis Minds that some of them have categorized themselves into different ranks to better identify themselves.

After the Darkness consumed Titan, Io, Mercury and Mars, the Black Legion intercepted a mysterious signal coming from Europa. Surprised to have intel about Eramis again, considering what happened from what they know as she attempted to raid the Tower for SIVA weapons over a year ago. However, they were more surprised, in a good way, to heard about the origin of the Exo located in Europa. They also received the Splinters of Darkness from the House of Shadow, leading them to create a new Legion called the Frost Legion. A few weeks later, after the discovery of the Deep Stone Crypt, they sent a massive regiment of Black Legion troops to create Exo bodies for the Cabal. Days later, they managed to do so, creating the Exo Legion.

====Season of Sumeragi====

====Trial of the Empress====

====The False Night====

Despite the strong temptation to attack an [[Endless Night]] weakened Last City, the Black Legion would resist this urge in fear of retribution from Caiatl's vast forces with a loose, yet honorable alliance with their enemies. After the substantial damage taken during the Sumeragi's assault on the Guardians and their minuscule influence over the events of Quria's plague on the Last City, the Black Legion would almost be entirely left out of the conflict. On the other hand, they would occupy themselves with research on their findings within the Glykon and the light-suppression devices learned from their prior conflict.

====Caiatl's War====

Despite their rather patriotic duty to their people as a whole, the Black Legion would remain impartial to Caiatl's efforts against Xivu Arath's forces crowding the edges of Sol, where the hope is that the two sides will soften each other enough to the point where their destruction would be achievable with what remains of Sumeragi. Meanwhile, Psion infiltrators within the Dreaming City would attempt to get a read on the scope of the operations enacted by both the Awoken and Guardians and Xivu Arath's dark forces, as well as understand the technology used to infiltrate Ley Lines. Regardless, the Legion's influence on the War between Queens would be inconsiderable to say the least.

==The Corrupted==

Alongside the Vex of the Chaos Collective, the Corrupted would be among the first few to detect the presence of a Taken influence within the Vex Domain. Using the rifts torn open by their Fallen and Vex allies, the Corrupted would begin to explore and investigate the inscrutable Vex Domain, as well as cautiously and covertly establish vector points where the Vex and mysterious Taken invaders couldn't find. Eventually, the Corrupted would discover the presence to be Quria from House Shadow and Chaos Collective expeditionaries. The Cult suggested the subversion of the Dreaming Mind in the hopes of hijacking it's influence and seizing control of the Vex who fell under it's thrall. However, they would be too late when they would discover the Mind's destruction at the hands of the Guardians. Despite this loss, however, the Corrupted would take what remained of it's body, harvest what data remained within it's rift-severed head and create a shadowy likeness of it in it's material stead.

===Overview===

Some Shadow Guardians would become shocked at the discovery of the Endless Night looming over their source most of their lucent power. However, with the discovery of Lakshmi-2's broadcasts and the friction generated between the Fallen of the [[House of Light]], some Shadow Guardians would body attempt to compound the issue by instigating as much anarchy as they could without getting caught by ambitious bounty hunters. Finally, when the friction finally gave and the factions began their coup, a few Shadow Guardians would join their assault on the Vanguard and House of Light, however, would instead find a problem on two fronts between the undivided Vex and the ecumenical alliance between Guardian and Fallen, forcing retreat. Despite this loss, the battle would serve as a learning experience for their forces, as they now realize the threat of a unified front of Vanguard, Fallen and Cabal. They surmised and broadcast to all Sumeragi forces that if they hope to achieve victory over the Traveler, they had to make their move and quickly.
