Tacitus Regained

"Those fools at GDI continues to destabilize the Tacitus with their... "experiments"! The Artifact must be taken from the hands of these childrens before they destroy it once and for all! Do not fail me!"
 * Kane, briefing LEGION of the situation

Operation "Tacitus Regained" is the final operation of the Third Tiberium War in 2052.

With the Marked of Kane under its control, LEGION seized the communication centers and hacked the energy barrier surrounding the facility that held the Tacitus, post-TWIII. It is rumored that LEGION started the battle by sealing the ZOCOM underground while dealing with the survivors on the surface.

Once the energy barrier was lowered, LEGION attacked and destroyed the Cheyenne Mountain Facility. It is suspected that LEGION had no fewer than three Redeemers under its command, one from the Marked of Kane, one from the Black Hand, and one from a smaller, baseline Nod force, that was sent to reinforce LEGION.

When all is said and done, the strikeforce quickly secured the Tacitus for their leader, Kane, and retreated in the face of GDI reinforcements.

Aftermath
Kane, with the now unstable Tacitus firmly in his hands, thanks the Nod AI, then fuses LEGION with it, infusing it with it's vast knowledge and was (presumably) transported into Ichor Hub with the AI, leaving the Legendary Insurgent wondering the whereabouts of Kane and LEGION. While the Scrin where reported to commence phase two of their harvesting operations: Invasion.


 * The last transmission from LEGION contained the following words (Scrin-English translation):

'EARTH WARP GATE STATUS ACTIVE'

'COMMENCING PHASE 2'

'INVASION'

For now, the future remains uncertain... time will tell, sooner or later, time will tell...
