'''The Coalition''' is a military alliance between the [[Vanguard]] of the [[Last City]], the [[Imperial Cabal]] led by [[Empress Caiatl]], the [[Eliksni]] [[House of Light]] led by [[Mithrax, Kell of Light]], the people of [[Neomuna]] protected by the [[Cloud Strider]] [[Nimbus]], and the [[Awoken]] of the [[Reef]] led by Queen [[Mara Sov]]. They actively work to defend the [[Sol System]] from the forces of [[The Witness]], its various [[Disciples of the Witness|Disciples]], and [[Xivu Arath, God of War|Xivu Arath]].

The Coalition begins to form after signing an armistice with Empress Caiatl, integrating the House of Light into the [[Last City]], and assisting the [[Awoken]] in rescuing the [[Techeun]]s from the forces of Xivu Arath. It would start with Imperial Cabal upon learning that [[Savathûn, the Witch Queen]], has gained the powers of the Light from the Traveler and uses her [[Lucent Brood]] to steal Light from the Guardians. Although [[Uldren Sov|Crow]]'s ineptitude almost placed the fledgling Coalition in danger, it remained strong thanks to the bravery of [[Saladin Forge]] and would continue to grow over time when Empress Caiatl tasks the Guardian to shut down [[Psion]]ic propaganda instigated by [[Yirix]] and spread by [[Qabix, Insurgent]]. Empress Caiatl discovers the future where [[Neomuna]] is under assault, [[Emperor Calus]]'s flagship, the [[Leviathan (ship)|Leviathan]] returns, [[Eramis, Kell of Darkness]] is freed her Stasis prison, and the Traveler is infected with Darkness from her Psions. She declares that the Coalition must remain united in order to stay vigilant, especially as the Witness begins to reveal itself and declared war with the forces of Sol and the Traveler itself. They would also work with Mara Sov to gain information about the [[Collapse]] from Savathûn's worm and stop the Scorn from taking over [[The Sunken Pyramid]] following the death of the First Disciple, [[Rhulk, Disciple of the Witness|Rhulk]].

The Leviathan returns in the Sol System, but derelict, heavily infested with [[Egregore]], and in [[Moon|Luna]]'s orbit. They receive intelligence from [[Eris Morn]] that Emperor Calus has begun communing with [[The Lunar Pyramid]] and has unleashed the [[Nightmare]]s once intended as the Lunar Pyramid's security mechanism. She and the Guardian work together in order to sever Calus's connection to the Lunar Pyramid. They begin with Crow, who is facing up against the [[Nightmare of Uldren]]. They were successful when Crow turns his Nightmare into a Memory and learns from the Memory to not ignore his past as Uldren Sov. Then they turn to Zavala, who is facing up against the [[Nightmare of Safiyah]], his former wife. He turns his Nightmare into a Memory when he lets go his grief for [[Safiyah]] and [[Hakim]]. Finally, they turn to Caiatl, who is facing up against the [[Nightmare of Dominus Ghaul]]. Unfortunately, since she doesn't have the protection against the Nightmares, she is vulnerable to its influence. After Eris gives her the protection needed, she is able to turn her Nightmare into a Memory and finally realizes she is more worthy than her idol in leading the Cabal Empire. The Guardian, Eris, Crow, Caiatl, and Zavala all begin to srrike, but Calus anticipates their arrival and has his forces ambush them. The Guardian makes their way to the [[Chantry of the Darkest Hour]] within the Lunar Pyramid and together with Empress Caiatl, faces the Herald of the Witness. Although they were able to to banish his influence from the Lunar Pyramid, they were too late in stopping Calus from becoming a Disciple of the Witness.

The next to join the Coalition would be the House of Light. Upon learning that Eramis has rallied the old crew of pirates, Ketchkillers, and Skiffblades, the Guardian with the [[Drifter]], [[The Spider]], [[Eido]], and Mithrax team up to prevent Eramis from acquiring the relics containing body parts of another Disciple of the Witness, [[Nezarec, Final God of Pain|Nezarec]]. They do so and help improve the Eliksni Quarter so Mithrax can use the relics to bring [[Osiris]] out of coma.

The forces of the Coalition would rally together as the threat of the Witness and its Disciples loom in the Solar System. After assisting the Bray family and Osiris in bringing [[Rasputin]] back online, Mara Sov informs the leaders of the Coalition that the usage of the [[Warsat]]s would allow Xivu Arath's forces to invade Earth. In response, Rasputin is forced to sacrifice himself to not only destroy all of the Warsats but also prevent Eramis from successfully completing ABHORRENT IMPERATIVE and allowing Xivu Arath from commencing her invasion. The Traveler departs from Earth to confront the [[Black Fleet]]. In its absence, the Vanguard declares that the forces of the Coalition: the Guardians, the Awoken, the House of Light, and the Imperial Cabal will unite to stop the Witness and its Disciples together.

The Witness and its forces finally arrive at Earth's orbit to confront the Traveler. The forces of the Coalition respond to defend it, but the defense fails as the pilots go down in the fight and the Witness soon learns the location of [[The Veil]]. The Guardian and Osiris follow the [[Shadow Legion]] fleet heading for [[Neptune]]. Upon landing on Neptune, the Coalition begins an alliance with the people of Neomuna by assisting the Cloud Striders in the fight against the Shadow Legion led by the newly-risen Disciple of the Witness, Emperor Calus. Mara informs the Guardian that she is responding to the Vanguard's aid and they are fighting a two-front war with the Shadow Legion, with one front on Neptune, and the other front on Earth. With the information in mind, the Guardian works to prevent Calus and the Witness from establishing a link with the Veil alongside Osiris, Nimbus, Rohan, and Caiatl. Rohan is forced to sacrifice himself to destroy the [[Radial Mast]] and prevent it from establishing a link with the Veil, leaving Nimbus as the sole Cloud Strider to defend Neomuna. They would work to make their final assault on Calus by having Caiatl rallt her Cabal, Nimbus reactivate the remaining [[CloudArk]] defenses throughout Neomuna, and Osiris assist the Guardian in their mastery of Strand. Once the mastery of Strand is complete, the Guardian eventually confronts Calus at the [[Veil Containment]] site underneath the Veil. They defeat him, but the victory is short-lived as the Witness possesses Ghost to establish a link with the Veil and open the portal using its energy. Despite the setback, the Guardian work to assist Nimbus in tracking down Rohan's notes leading into the [[Black Garden]], repair Cloud Strider monuments damaged by the Vex, and end Nezarec's influence on the people by confronting him inside the [[Essence|terraformed Pyramid]] once inhabited by the Witness.

The Guardian returns to Earth and meets with Mara, Devrim, and Mithrax at the [[Farm]]. They follow Amanda's distress signal into the EDZ and breach the Pyramid outpost's warding with the [[Ascendant Scepter]]. They kill the [[Warden Vincu'us, Shadow Legion|warden]] in charge and rescue the prisoners captured by the Shadow Legion including Amanda. They go and rescue more prisoners in the [[Cosmodrome]] by killing the [[Zatocc, Devoted to the Witness|warden]] in charge there and overcoming its Psionic powers. Next, they infiltrate a Shadow Legion prison ship to kill the [[Bracus Kravaum, Shadow Legion|warden]] there and rescue more prisoners. Amanda and Mithrax intercept a distress signal inside the EDZ Tunnels and requests the Guardian's assistance. After defeating a [[Tormentor]] named [[Vereziia, Reverent of the Witness]], they assist in getting the prisoners out. Amanda is killed in the prison facility's explosion. The Coalition holds a vigil for Amanda in the Farm as Crow forms a plan to avenge Amanda. He soon does do and tells the Guardian of the plan: they would infiltrate the Shadow Legion flagship while he, Devrim, and Mithrax would assist them in eliminating the forces occupying it. After dispelling the Pyramid beacons, Crow detonates the charges set up in the hangar. The Guardian then makes their way to the engine room and use the powers sent by Mara Sov to destroy the cooling fans, then the engine. They finally scuttle the flagship and see it blow up from the sky. The forces of the Coalition celebrate their victory and honor Amanda's memory
