At some point following the Collapse, Gilgamesh resurrected Katabasis as his chosen Guardian. The pair went on to serve under the Vanguard as protectors of the Last City.

Red War

During the Red Legion's surprise attack on the Last City, Gilgamesh's connection to the Light was severed when the Traveler was surrounded by the Legion's cage. He was separated from Katabasis in the chaos of the invasion, but later found him and accompanied him as he escaped the burning City.

Gilgamesh's connection to the Light would later be restored when the Traveler broke free of its cage at the end of the Red War.

Aboard the Glykon Volatus

Gilgamesh and Katabasis went to the Cabal ship Glykon Volatus to help Calus commune with the Darkness. After traversing through the anomaly left behind as Mars vanished, the carrier was left stranded near the Tangled Shore. As the Scorn trapped inside the ship now freely roamed the halls, Katabasis ordered Gilgamesh to leave him dead until help arrived, lest he starve onboard the ship over and over again. At some point before the events of Presage, Gilgamesh was consumed by whispers coming from a voice in the Darkness, compelling him to continuously resurrect his Guardian in dangerous areas, hoping the Scorn would eventually cut off their connection to the Light. Katabasis was forced to kill his Ghost with a barrage of shots from his rifle, dooming him.
