At the end of this transmission from Callus that The City's Owl Sector intercepted, we read Callus saying to his followers:

Your sacrifice shall spark the Shadows of Earth.

I think this refers to Callus' Shadows. Elite warriors he has collected from different races including the Cabal, the Psions, and even a strange race of energy beings that live in filaments that run between stars. Now, he seems to be setting his sights on Guardians, hoping to recruit / turn some of us into his Shadows...

More on Shadows:

I have come to admire how you rally against the impossible. It's not your continual success that amuses me—your Light assures victory—it's your refusal to kneel. You fight and you die without a second thought. For what? Personal glory? Wealth? The wretched denizens of your refugee city?

You have made bitter foes of races older, nobler, and worthier than you.

You struggle so vainly and valiantly when you have so little. When you are so little. Everything this universe has thrown against you and still you persist.

I could finish you. And you would not be at my side at the dimming of the world. You, the Guardian of Guardians.

If I wished it, you would die your final death. But I won't. Why? Because I'm in love.

—Calus, Emperor of the Cabal

(Zenith of Your Kind)

You've shown the Red Legion you fly my banner. I know that when the time is right, I won't have to ask. You're on my side.

I see it when your body becomes a weapon with which you obliterate your opponents, when your knuckles become a part of your foe's countenance, when you smash them with your Light. And it is captivating. But Earth casts no Shadow. Not yet.

When you're ready, you will be magnificent. A Guardian of Guardians. Shadow of Shadows.

I reserve the right to be last when the end comes, and for that, I will need you with me.

You're so close.

—Calus, Emperor of the Cabal
