Arxus stepped into the Hall of Champions and was greeted by the three Vanguards of the Guardians. Zavala stared up from whatever documents he was looking over, and Ikora was consumed by her research. Commander Zavala soon began to speak.

"I've read over the reports that Major Boris and Scythe have provided. They told me that you went above and beyond what most Titans would do. Since this is usual protocol, I would like a full report from all members of the fireteam. Varying perspectives might offer differing details." Zavala leaned upon the war table.

"Well. We found out about the Bones of Enxor a while ago. Major Boris split our numbers into two teams. Argus went with him to their base on Ceres, and I was given command of Theseus to stop the Bones from collecting Enxor's pieces." Arxus shifted uncomfortably, as if not wanting to recall everything that happened. "My fireteam failed and we lost three of our numbers. I sacrificed myself to protect Sara and Scythe, but I was captured."

"The other reports tell me you were tortured by the 'Darkbringer', correct? What happened aboard his freighter?"

Arxus leaned his head down, placing his helmet on the table. He sighed. "He tortured me, probed my mind for information. He found out where Enxor was going to be resurrected at, and learned all about the survivors of Theseus and Argus. I shouldn't have made it out alive."

"But you did."

"I did." Arxus replied.

"Further reports say that you went to Ceres next. What happened?"

"We went down to stop Enxor from waking up. The Darkbringer was already there, and he boarded our Ketch-"

"The House of Blades' Ketch." Zavala interjected.

"Yes sir. We killed the Darkbringer's men and eventually confronted him in Enxor's fortress. By the time we found him, he had gone crazy. I put him out of his misery."

"Hm. Then you were drawn into Enxor's throne world?"

"Yes. He trapped us in our own nightmares at first, with these." Arxus motioned, and the same neon-green crystals from Enxor's throne world transmatted onto the war table. Once having a bright green glow, they had since lost that glow and became inert, perhaps because of Enxor's death. Ikora mentioned something about the crystals being the same ones that Scythe showed earlier. Arxus continued to speak. "We managed to break free from the nightmares and we ended Enxor."

"I see." Zavala paused for a moment. "What you've done for the city is more than what most Guardians have done in their entire career. Those down in the city below will sleep easier knowing there is one less phantom of the Hive haunting their very dreams."

"Thank you, sir." Arxus responded. It was difficult to keep himself composed at the time. His mind was a mess and he wasn't used to reporting straight to the top dog. But he did it. It was over. Argus won. The Guardians came out on top again. And Arxus felt proud of himself. He saluted and walked off.
