The [[Cosmodrome]] quakes under a killing wind: fire sent roaring from entrenched [[Cabal]] gunlines across the [[Mothyards]]. A Cabal advance threatens to encircle a defensive line held by crimson frames and one lone [[Light]]. | The [[Cosmodrome]] quakes under a killing wind: fire sent roaring from entrenched [[Cabal]] gunlines across the [[Mothyards]].

Lord Saladin strides into the no-man's-land surrounded by advancing Redjacks and a billowing aura of searing refraction. He hurls a fusion grenade across the expanse without breaking pace and demolishes one of the dozens of machinegun nests outright. Shaw moves behind him. Flame licks down the [[Ahamkara]] [[Young Ahamkara's Spine|spine]] lashed to his arm until it meets the hammer of his weapon and ignites his [[Golden Gun]]. He singles out several enemy flak cannons and skewers them with Solar points, incinerating nearby Cabal. | Lord Saladin strides into the no-man's-land surrounded by advancing Redjacks and a billowing aura of searing refraction.

Hot barrels realign on the | Hot barrels realign on the Guardians as a magnificent flare emblazons Lord Saladin's armor in Solar Light. From his palms erupts a mighty maul that clinks into his gauntlets. Heavy slugs clang as they shrug off his immolated plate. He does not flinch or falter. Saladin charges the line, heat intensifying and melting slugs into slag droplets that ping and sizzle against him. He slams his maul into the dirt, driving a sweeping inferno toward the Cabal gunline. It hits like a bursting artillery shell, catching oil alight and spreading hot panic through the Cabal ranks. | ||
Shaw dodges around incoming fire and reloads his weapon. He snaps off two more golden rays into the remaining enemy flak cannons. Frames push forward alongside them, absorbing slugs for the Guardians and keeping pressure on the gunline. Shaw spots several Gladiator detachments redirecting to confront them. He pushes the bulk of his Light into his weapon, spreads its influence to reach the nearby Redjacks, and reignites his gun before touching the barrel to the ground and firing. The ground bubbles with hot magmatic Light; a warmth envelops the Redjacks as Solar flame imbues and empowers their rifles with golden power. Shaw directs the firestorm of golden Redjack rifles to incinerate every last charging foe. | Shaw dodges around incoming fire and reloads his weapon.

He is a wildfire of Light and death. Legionaries flee their nests rather than challenge him. Frantic Cabal radio transmissions crackle across the battleground. All remaining guns turn to stop the [[Iron Lords|Iron Lord]]'s advance, but only succeed in slowing it. Saladin's voice bellows above the gunline. | ||
"Now, [[Siegfried]]!" A Vanguard vulture-class battle carrier shrieks through the sky above, just long enough for a lone Guardian to drop from the clouds, a meteor wreathed in lightning, bringing down havoc from the skies. | "Now, [[Siegfried]]!"
