Metus was part of a mercenary team commanded by Tuma, which was hired by Blackout to kill Ynot.
Having watched Tuma and Stronius being defeated very quickly, Metus decided it wasn't a good idea to stay around anymore, teleported up to his ship, set it to crash into the cathedral where everyone was, and ran away in an escape pod. However, Ynot threw Stronius and some Skrall at the ship, knocking it off-course.....and right into Metus' escape pod, which had just activated his warp drive. The escape pod was torn apart, and so was Metus.
