+===The Collapse===
+The massive hulks of dead [[Golden Age]] ships that make up the Reef mark the furthest point that people fleeing [[Earth]] and the Inner System during the [[Collapse]] were able to reach; the [[Darkness]] ensured they made it no further.<ref name="Destiny"/>
+===Arrival of the Awoken===
+A group of Awoken colonized the Reef at some point in the [[Dark Age]] after emigrating from the [[Distributary]] under the leadership of [[Mara Sov]], and established a society completely independent from the [[City]].<ref name="Destiny PlayStation 4 Official Announcement"/><ref name= "Pathways out of Darkness"/><ref>[http://multiplayerblog.mtv.com/2013/02/17/bungies-destiny-revealed/ ''''Bungie's Destiny Revealed''</ref> Outsiders, including Earth-born Awoken, were long considered trespassers and if necessary met with lethal force.<ref name="Destiny"/> This changed after the rebellion of the [[House of Wolves]], as Guardians were welcomed into the Reef to combat the Fallen menace.<ref>'''Bungie (2015/5/19)''', ''[[Destiny]]: House of Wolves Playstation 4, Activision Blizzard''</ref>
 The Awoken of the Reef have long preferred to remain distant and aloof from the affairs of the [[City]], but are known to be associated with the [[Nine]], who are said to control the planets beyond the asteroid belt.<ref name="The Queen">'''Bungie (2015/1/23)''', ''[[Destiny]]: Activision Blizzard, [[Grimoire]]: [[Grimoire:Allies#The Queen|The Queen]]''</ref> The current Queen allied with the Nine in a successful [[Reef Wars|war]] against the [[Fallen]] House of Wolves.<ref name="GFTQ">'''Bungie (2015/1/23)''', ''[[Destiny]]: Activision Blizzard, [[Grimoire]]: [[Grimoire:Allies#Ghost Fragment: The Queen|Ghost Fragment: The Queen]]''</ref> With half their House destroyed, their [[Kaliks Prime|Prime Servitor]] missing, and their [[Skolas, Wolf Kell|Kell]] and [[Aksor, Archon Priest|Archon]] sealed within the [[Prison of Elders]], the House of Wolves became vassals of the Queen and lived alongside the Awoken until their rebellion.<ref name="The Queen"/><ref name="GFTQ"/> In the aftermath of the uprising, and various thefts by Fallen, the Queen opened the Reef up to the [[Guardian]]s to fight alongside the Awoken.<ref>[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fPg3jWn6Nn0 '''YouTube''' - ''Official Destiny Expansion II: House of Wolves Prologue'']</ref>
-When [[Oryx]] invaded the Sol System, the Reef was on the forefront of repelling the [[Hive]] fleet. Their vast armada, led personally by the Queen, met Oryx's fleet in combat in the rings of [[Saturn]], but were overwhelmed by Oryx's [[Dreadnaught]]'s superweapon and virtually the entire armada was obliterated with very few survivors. With the Queen missing in action, her Emissary, [[Petra Venj]], became acting regent-commander.

 Though the Dreadnaught was restricted to Saturn, and most of its accompanying fleet annihilated by its own superweapon, hundreds of [[Seeder Ship|Seeder]]s nonetheless landed across the Reef, flooding it with Hive and causing widespread damage.<ref>'''Bungie (2018/9/4)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: [[Forsaken]], Playstation 4, Activision Blizzard, [[Lore]]: [[Lore:The_Awoken_of_the_Reef#Regent|Regent]]''</ref>
+===The Red War===
 The arrival of the [[Red Legion]] caused even more devastation in the Reef, facilitated by the supposedly-traitorous [[Broken Legion]] (in actuality a Trojan horse) from the Prison of Elders. Raids led by the [[House of Kings]] led to further destabilization, forcing Petra to pull back and consolidating the Reef's territory in order to protect civilian life.<ref>'''Bungie (2018/9/4)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: [[Forsaken]], Playstation 4, Activision Blizzard, [[Lore]]: [[Lore:The_Forsaken_Prince#Fanatic_.7C_Part_I|Fanatic | Part I]]''</ref>
