Kala was in a bit of a dry spell.  Her last mission, a simple assassination of a Cabal commander, had gone smoothly as usual; that was six months ago.  Her Guardian colleagues that she often teamed up with were all on personal matters, and she didn't work well alone.  The last six months had been endless training, keeping her ready for the next mission.  She went to a shooting range in the eastern part of the City.  It was seedy, but it was the best shooting practice you could get, besides an actual mission.

She was shooting her way through the Vex targets, having blasted a round of bullets right in a fake Hobgoblin's stomach, when her Ghost Velox chimed up.

"Ma'am, the Speaker has sent you a transmission.  Do you accept?" the little droid droned in a monotone voice.

"Of course.  I've been needing fieldwork."  Kala said, slinging her SUROS Regime back onto her back.  She was excited.  A mission straight from the Speaker had to be important.  Kala's eyes followed Velox as he floated away from the shooting gallery.  The Speaker's message began emitting from the Ghost's tiny speaker.  It explained the House of Blight, her mission to enter the Exclusion Zone with a group, and where to go to rendezvous for the mission.  After it was finished, Kala nodded her head to her ghost and began walking towards the Tower.

"Thanks you, Velox.  We need to get to this ship as soon as possible."  She said, quickening her pace.  Not only was it important to fight this dangerous new House sooner rather than later, but she also would need time to become familiar with her teammates.

As she stepped into the out-of-date ship, Kala could see the several of the group's other Guardians were inside, as well as the Fallen she was informed they would be working with.  She had fought through Variks' Prison of Elders many times before, so she knew she could probably trust this Fallen, though he was far larger than Variks.  She was a bit worried on how other, less open-minded Guardians might take it; that was something that could jeopardize this crucial mission.  Taking her place next to the alien being, she loudly introduced herself to all present.

"Hello, fellow Guardians.  My name is Kala Janas.  I am an Awoken Sunsinger, here to assist you on your mission against the House of Blight."
