Unfortunately, despite their efforts in severing all of Calus's connections between the Leviathan and the [[Lunar Pyramid]], the former emperor had succeeded in what he intended: to become a new Disciple of the Witness and gain entry into the Pyramid to claim its power. However, as the transformation hadn't been complete yet, Eris was able to put together a Severance Ritual of a much larger scale to prevent Calus from taking control of the Pyramid but required not only the Guardian's and Zavala's aid but also that of Crow and Caiatl. Racing to the Leviathan to begin the ritual, Zavala would find himself overwhelmed by [[Scorn]] forces but managed to place his amplifiers. Despite being unable to lend aid, the Guardians and Caiatl managed to enter into the Pyramid and confront Calus at the [[Chantry of the Darkest Hour]]. Against the odds, they managed to push Calus back, preventing him from claiming the Pyramid's power. Zavala would be present as Caiatl confirmed that her father had given himself over to the Witness and would gaze on as the Memory of Safiyah dissipated. Left completely exhausted by the entire ordeal, Zavala sits down upon his knees but would be comforted by his allies.

===Restoring the Warmind===
When [[Anastasia Bray|Ana Bray]] began her to restore Rasputin, Zavala would be confronted over this endeavour by Empress Caiatl. She would remind him that he was a machine, Zavala would acknowledge this before asking her to elaborate. The Empress would explain her skepticism that he was entrusting him with potent military supplies, including orbital artillery, an arsenal of advanced ordnance, coordination of gunship deployments, and forward operating bases. Zavala would remind Caiatl that Rasputin was designed for this purpose, to which she remarked that something as valuable as a warrior's spirit couldn't be designed as a true warrior understands that victory comes at a cost. Remaining doubtful, Caiatl would ask the Vanguard Commander if he truly believed that Rasputin can truly understands these concepts, to his astonishment, he would state that he believed he could. Turning away from the window to face the holoprojector, Zavala admits that he once distrusted the Warmind due to believing that he only ever saw them as mere accessories. Zavala then leans towards his desk and explains that he now understands the daunting task that Rasputin has to bear to protect humanity and even the losses he has suffered himself. Caiatl then him asks if he sees in Rasputin a kindred spirit. Zavala admits to the Empress that he only sees an old warrior doing his best and that is something that will always earn his trust.<ref>'''Bungie (2022/12/6)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: [[Season of the Seraph]], [[Jumpship|Jumpship Lore]]: [[Spirit of the Warmind]]''</ref>
Ultimately Ana would succeed in her objective of restoring Rasputin so he could aid them in their battle against the Witness. However, Mara Sov would uncover that Xivu Arath intended for them to use the Warsats against her Wrathborn to not only feed her worm from the destruction, but also fuel a ritual to open a portal to send fourth her armies to begin a mass invasion of Earth. When Eramis infiltrated the Warsat station and attempt to fire on the Traveler, causing the Great Machine to drift away from Earth. However Rasputin activates "AURORA SACRIFICE", his self-destruction sequence to delete all of his systems and destroy the Warsats, courageously sacrafing himself to prevent Xivu Arath's arrival and causing the Traveler to return to Earth. Although the Traveler had briefly left Earth when Eramis had prepared to fire the Warsats, Zavala believed that the Traveler did not intend on running, but instead was preparing to make its final stand against the Witness as it's ancient enemy now approaches Earth.
