'''Phobos''' is one of two asteroid moons orbiting [[Mars]]. The [[Cabal]] used Phobos as a beachhead for their invasion and occupation of Mars when they arrived in the [[Sol System]]. Later, they somehow altered the asteroid moon's orbit for unknown reasons, bringing it significantly closer to the planet. A common belief among [[Warlock]]s is that Phobos was moved to its current orbit and is being held in place by the [[Ice Reapers]] and their [[Psion Flayers]], who are only an order away from unleashing it as a weapon.<ref name="PF">'''Bungie (2015-1-23)''', ''[[Destiny]] | '''Phobos''' is one of two asteroid moons orbiting [[Mars]].

The City Vanguard believed Phobos to potentially be the command center and staging ground of the Cabal [[Skyburners]], who were commanded by [[Primus Ta'aun]] and his lieutenants. Presumably the Skyburners were marshaling a "second fleet" with the intent of launching a full assault on the inner system.<ref>'''Bungie (2015-1-23)''', ''[[Destiny]] | The City Vanguard believed Phobos to potentially be the command center and staging ground of the Cabal [[Skyburners]], who were commanded by [[Primus Ta'aun]] and his lieutenants.

The Asteroid appears to have already been settled with a Cabal base, with [[Cabal Plow]]s clearing out more area. | ||
With the arrival of [[Oryx]] in the Sol System, the [[Taken]] have swarmed Phobos, overwhelming the Cabal and forcing them to evacuate a major base.<ref>[http://planetdestiny.com/the-taken-king-vidoc/ '''Planet Destiny''': The Taken King Vidoc]</ref><ref>[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5We-IDpnm18 YouTube: Planet Destiny: Full Taken King Story Mission | The Coming War]</ref> | With the arrival of [[Oryx]] in the Sol System, the [[Taken]] have swarmed Phobos, overwhelming the Cabal and forcing them to evacuate a major base.<ref>[http://planetdestiny.com/the-taken-king-vidoc/ '''Planet Destiny''': The Taken King Vidoc]</ref><ref>[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5We-IDpnm18 YouTube: Planet Destiny: Full Taken King Story Mission | The Coming War]</ref> |
