The Invasion of Neptune was a massive conflict that unfolded on Neomuna after the Witness's attack on the Traveler. After communing with it and discovering the location of the Veil, a paracausal object related to the Traveler, the Witness ordered Calus, its newest disciple, and his forces to invade Neptune and secure the Veil. This prompts Osiris to stow away on one of the Shadow Legion’s carriers in order to stop the invasion. The Guardian follows him on orders from Ikora Rey, and after sabotaging their carriers, The Guardian and Osiris make their way to Neomuna via Drop Pods. From there, they would befriend and ally the Cloud Striders Nimbus and Rohan, and along with the Imperial Cabal, would work to stop both Calus and the Witness.

After the defeat of Calus, the conflict would spill over into the flagship of the Witness, Essence, as a team of 6 Guardians would confront Nezarec, Final God of Pain and permanently put an end to both him and his haunting of the CloudArk.
