Prologue - Assault on the Avenger II
- Main article: [[Assault on the Avenger II|Assault on the Avenger II]]
Immediately following the events surrounding the Horizon plague the Dark Council responded with precise fury and immediate retribution upon the remnants of Zoraan's forces. The primary target was that of Zoraan's flagship, the Super-class Star Destroyer Avenger II, an ample prize and tool for the Brotherhood's plans against an encroaching threat. Calling upon all available forces, the Council immediately began actions against the rogue Destroyer within the Shroud as Task Force 62 began their engagement to keep the vessel trapped within their territory. This diversionary effort had been designed simply for the second half of the Master at Arms' plan, deploying small strike teams to board the vessel and capture it from within. Amongst the chaos of the combat surrounding the Avenger II, eighteen teams were deployed at the behest of the Grand Master with each dedicated to the cause or simply in it for their own personal glory.
While not amongst the first party to land aboard the Avenger II, a team comprised primarily of Sadowans and a singular Palatinaean landed in two separate craft in an exposed hanger. Swiftly clearing the hanger of potential threats, the team encountered a pair of Zoraan's acolytes by the names of Frost and Reaper. These Sith were of little match for the highly trained team as Araxis Farron tricked Frost into slaying his brother before the team put him down with ease. The lull in combat allowed the team to disconnect the hanger from the surrounding sub-systems aboard the Destroyer so that they could use it as a staging ground for further reinforcements. The Council responded swiftly, sending the Deputy Raken and the Herald's Praetor Ekeia Iclo amongst the reinforcements for a task unknown though they did leave the team with a message decrypted by Atra Ventus. This message was never communicated with the rest of the team before they were assaulted by a team lead by an Elder under Zoraan's employ, Dantella Novae. Eliminating the first waves of resistance, the team moved quickly to disable all the vessel's security using the knowledge of Brent "Archangel" Ligur Victae and Kalia Pepoi. In the midst of their efforts, the Sith Elder managed to assert control over Kalia and would have succeeded in using the woman against her own team had they not reacted appropriately. Asserting his own muscle within the Force, Methyas Pepoi L'eonheart helped free Kalia from Novae's grasp and assisted Atra in locking the Woman in stasis before rendering her unconscious to ensure she could be captured by additional Brotherhood forces.
With their capture of Dantella, the team was given a new directive: Capture the Bridge. On their approach to the Bridge, it became very apparent that one final threat still remained along with his creations. Twisted by his Master's death, Darth Necar and his modified Terentatek awaited them on the bridge having turned the Avenger II about in a final crazed effort to eliminate the Brotherhood by crashing the vessel into Antei and the Dark Hall. Before the confrontation even began, the team knew they were outmatched by an individual of Grand Master skill and strength; but this did not give them pause as they began their assault quickly. Splitting into two groups, one side dealt with the Terentatek as the other focused on keeping the crazed Grand Master busy. Together, Archangel, Atra and Kalia confronted the Terentatek and ensured at least one of the pair were captured for study by Krath Alchemists in the Brotherhood's employ though Atra had been incapacitated in doing so. Meanwhile, Araxis and Methyas dealt with the Sith Lord alone; their efforts rewarded in the loss of an arm and leg in the name of duty. As the battle wore on it was obvious that they would not survive the battle without grievous losses, knowledge Methyas utilized as he separated himself from his team by sealing the bridge and tricking the Grand Master into destroying a weakened viewport and venting the bridge to space.
The mission was a clear success for the Brotherhood as they assumed control of the vessel to refit it for their future endeavours. While many members of the strike team had been seriously injured, they did survive and were taken to the appropriate facilities to receive the attention they needed.

Chapter Two - Khar Delba Incursion
When the Dark Brotherhood's eyes turned toward the former homeworld of Naga Sadow himself, the Clan quickly forgot about its failing on Nfolgai as the drums of war hammered in their ears once more. Conquest, after all, was in the Disciples of Sadows' blood, and they would not lose their destined seat of power to anyone else in the Brotherhood anymore than they would to the One Sith. As the Sadow Warhound marched on Khar Delba, however, the dark cloud that hung over them returned and many of their advance teams failed to make successful landing, with several plumetting far off course. One party, amongst them the excommunicated apostate Darth Vexatus, whose decision to accompany the team had already unsettled their pilot Shirai Dupar, crash landed in the frozen ice fields outside the Spire Mountainrange. While they struggled to reestablish contact with the orbital strike fleet to organise an extraction, the team were set upon by warbeasts and troubled by strange apparitions and distressing visions, which were believed to have been caused by the residual dark side energy that permeated the planet's atmosphere, although Ylith questioned if the source was closer to home. Tensions flared when the apostate son and his apprentice, Sildrin failed to come to the assistance of Shirai, Amagon and Yuriko after their assent of the mountain was stalled by an assassination attack, and by the time the six eventually reached the summit of the mountain, they found forces from House Plagueis had already spread out into the ruins.
