During his efforts to perfect the [[Fr0st-EE5]]s, Marcus asked his fellow [[SRL]] racer Blue [[Boaz]] to help test them out. Boaz thought the boots were great despite the name, and Marcus was glad they worked so well despite the problems he still had not fixed, admitting that the Energy Transfer Capacitors had around a two-percent chance of exploding. His friend was furious that Marcus had him test them without warning about the danger, threating to inform Deputy-Commander [[Sloane]], but Marcus quickly offered him rare Sparrow mods to ensure his silence.<ref>'''Bungie (2018/5/8)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: [[Warmind (expansion)|Warmind]] Playstation 4, Activision Blizzard, [[Fr0st-EE5]]''</ref> | |||

Marcus was part of several fireteams of Guardians deployed to the [[Cosmodrome]] in the aftermath of the [[SIVA Crisis]]. The fireteams found most of the [[Fallen]] [[House of Devils]] hideouts abandoned, with their banners and House armor burned. After the mission, Marcus spoke with Sloane and stated that he believed that the Fallen's siege of the City was broken, as the other Fallen Houses across the system had also abandoned their holdings and disappeared.<ref>'''Bungie (2017/3/28)''', ''[[Destiny]]: [[Age of Triumph]], Activision Blizzard | Marcus was part of several fireteams of Guardians deployed to the [[Cosmodrome]] in the aftermath of the [[SIVA Crisis]].

During the [[Red Legion]]'s assault on the [[Last City]], Marcus was drained of his [[Light]] when the Cabal placed a [[Traveler Cage|cage]] upon the Traveler. Attempting to escape the occupied City, Marcus raced through the streets on his Sparrow while imagining commentary from the SRL narrating his ride. He was ambushed by a [[Centurion]] who destroyed his Sparrow, sending him crashing into a mound of debris, briefly knocking him out. As he came to, he found himself being picked up by the neck by the Centurion and with a broken leg. As the Centurion choked the life out of the Hunter, Marcus continued to imagine SRL commentary and thought that he had a good run, but this was the end for him.

However, his partner and fellow SRL racer [[Enoch Bast]] arrived and tackled the Centurion before killing it in hand-to-hand combat. With Marcus heavily wounded, Enoch carried him to safety, and the two left the City together.<ref>'''Bungie (2018/5/8)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: [[Warmind (expansion)|Warmind]] Playstation 4, Activision Blizzard, [[Comrades in Arms]]''</ref> | ||

Following the reclamation of the Last City from the Red Legion and the restoration of the Light, Marcus returned to the City. At some point, Marcus suggested to [[Amanda Holliday]] that they could attempt to use Sparrows for jousting, which Amanda thought was a great idea.<ref name="Hastilude"/> | Following the reclamation of the Last City from the Red Legion and the restoration of the Light, Marcus returned to the City.

While working on the creation of the [[St0mp-EE5]], Marcus invited Boaz to help test them. He asked Boaz to disintegrate him quickly if the boots ripped his legs off so that the rogue mechasynapses could not spread. Boaz was disconcerted about the dangers of the experiment, while also noting he would not even get [[Crucible]] credit for the kill. Marcus offered to let him win their next race and suggested that he could ask [[Ariadne Gris]] for help instead, as he was sure she would want to shoot him. His fellow racer agreed to help and Marcus began his first field test of the St0mp-EE5's.<ref | While working on the creation of the [[St0mp-EE5]], Marcus invited Boaz to help test them.

One day in his workshop, Marcus complained to his [[Ghost]], [[Didi]], that he was bored and needed a new project. She pointed out that he had three unfinished Sparrows and a task from [[Ikora Rey]] that he had yet to complete. Marcus complained she was not taking him seriously, causing her to fly over to his bright red racing jacket and point out that she had always wanted one for herself. Excited by the idea, Marcus agreed she needed a racing shell and that he was going to create the flashiest Ghost shell ever. He kissed Didi's shell and thanked her for the idea.<ref>'''Bungie (2017/5/12)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: [[Curse of Osiris]], Activision Blizzard | One day in his workshop, Marcus complained to his [[Ghost]], [[Didi]], that he was bored and needed a new project.

During the first [[Crimson Days]] event following the Liberation of the Last City, Marcus raced in the Crimson Cup to defend his win the previous year. During the final lap he had a four length lead on Enoch, but while looking behind him dropped his lucky coin. A moment later, Marcus' Sparrow fried a cell, causing him to lose speed. Just before the finish line, Enoch passed Marcus and won the race, stunning the crowd and announcers. Marcus sped off the track on his damaged Sparrow, casting one last look back at the [[ | During the first [[Crimson Days]] event following the Liberation of the Last City, Marcus raced in the Crimson Cup to defend his win the previous year.

After hearing rumors that the [[Scorn]] Baroness [[Yaviks, the Rider]] had successfully ridden through the chaotic asteroids of [[The Ragged Valley]] in the [[Tangled Shore]], Marcus set out to prove that it was impossible to do so in order to discredit the murderous Fallen raider. He made four runs through the Ragged Valley, and the ever-changing orbits of the crashing asteroids destroyed four of his Sparrows and required him to be resurrected by Didi once. After the fourth attempt Marcus declared the Ragged Valley to be too random to navigate and that predicting the path of the asteroids was impossible, however he decided to attempt it for a fifth time. He successfully managed to cross the Ragged Valley on that attempt, squeezing through a narrow gap just before two asteroids collided. Despite proving that the Ragged Valley could be navigated, Marcus refused to admit that Yaviks could have accomplished the same feat.<ref>'''Bungie (2018/9/4)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: [[Forsaken]], Activision Blizzard | After hearing rumors that the [[Scorn]] Baroness [[Yaviks, the Rider]] had successfully ridden through the chaotic asteroids of [[The Ragged Valley]] in the [[Tangled Shore]], Marcus set out to prove that it was impossible to do so in order to discredit the murderous Fallen raider.
