![]() It was upgraded with Scrin-derived technology while inactive and Kane was confident that LEGION would reactivate, and it did so independently in 2052 after the Third Tiberium War. ![]() LEGION was not permanently deactivated, however. Kane, connecting LEGION with the Tacitus ( src) Time for you to achieve the purpose for which you were created. LEGION my child, you are my greatest creation. LEGION's final visual input before he shut down was her suicide, right in front of the Prophet. In what she perceived a defense of Kane, she infected LEGION with a powerful virus, corrupting its systems and forcing into the digital equivalent of a coma. Her mistrust of the AI, which only grew deeper as she agonized over her parents' murder by CABAL years ago, developed into an obsession as she gradually understood the scope of the project she was a ward of. When LEGION was finally ordered to capture the device in China, everything went wrong, as Alexas' paranoia finally made her snap. Curiously this problem was subverted when the Scrin invaded and Kane was able to contact LEGION directly, informing him about the Tacitus signals and their relevance to him. This was apparently achieved by a special module she used, which corrupted Kane's broadcasts and allowed only Alexa to come through. īefore the Temple Prime's destruction, LEGION was forced by Alexa to act against Kane and conduct a false-flag operation: an attack on the Temple in the guise of Kilian Qatar. Another assignment it was given during this time was the destruction of the ZOCOM MARVs in the African Red Zone. This was the first part of Kane's plan the second was preventing Doctor Alphonse Giraud from convincing Boyle not to use the ion cannon to level Temple Prime, while also " recruiting" another great mind for the Brotherhood. Another success came when the AI successfully staged an incident at the GDI Treasury, forcing Director Redmond Boyle to remain planetside and assume command over GDI. Under Kovacs' command, LEGION was crucial in securing access codes for the global defence matrix in Johannesburg, allowing them to identify weaknesses in the network of ion cannons protecting the Philadelphia. It awoke significantly enhanced and upgraded, in time for final preparations for the Third Tiberium War. The development of the fledgling AI became one of the Brotherhood's most secret projects, headed by Abbess Alexa Kovacs, the designated ward of the initiative. I pray for us all.ĭuring his period of slumber, Nod rebuilt, becoming a covert superpower. CABAL's cyborg army murdered many innocents, murdered my parents! I pray I am wrong about you LEGION. I fear, however, if you do, you will become something. The signal of the Tacitus has returned, you must find the artifact. LEGION was deactivated for upgrading as part of general preparations for the Third Tiberium War. This " grand gesture" signaled Nod's resurgence to the world. The cataclysmic aftermath turned much of the continent into Yellow and Red Zones. Finally LEGION destroyed a GDI Tiberium research facility in Australia. Marcion was thus forced to act as Kane's public face. This was a lead up to assaulting Marcion's Australian stronghold and securing the heretic's and the Black Hand's loyalty. It then recovered the last remaining record of Nod's stealth technology from a GDI facility in Australia. LEGION led the Rio de Janeiro insurrection against GDI, bringing the South American Nod factions under Kane's influence. Effectively abandoned by all others, Kane turned to LEGION in 2034 to execute his plan to reunify Nod. Forthwith the Brotherhood fragmented with Marcion leading the Black Hand, the strongest faction, with heretical beliefs. Anton Slavik, leader of the Black Hand and Kane's chosen successor, was assassinated and usurped by Marcion. Nod faced familiar difficulties after the Firestorm Conflict. Kane, deactivating LEGION in order to upgrade the AI ( src) and you my child, you must move to the next step in your evolution. By 2034, the first version of LEGION was operational (though not named yet). Kane used information gained from Tacitus shards to create the new AI. The previous AI ultimately failed but provided a firm foundation for improvement, and Kane envisioned the new creation that would surpass the old. While formulating the Brotherhood's future, and ultimately the direction of the Third Tiberium War, Kane decided to create a new lifeform based on CABAL. Inspiration for LEGION's creation occurred while Kane was confined in a medical tube after the Second Tiberium War and in the period immediately following his release. For together we shall raise a great army. You and I are all that remain but are all that is necessary.
