The '''Prison of Elders''' is a prison facility in [[The Reef]], formerly under the oversight of [[Variks, the Loyal]]. It is based on the [[House of Judgment]]'s traditions for settling disputes between [[Fallen]] through trial by combat. The Archon Priest [[Aksor, Archon Priest|Aksor]] was previously a prisoner before later being retrieved by [[Taniks]] and having his soul restored by the [[House of Winter]] on [[Venus]]. The Prison of Elders is also known to contain members of the [[House of Wolves]] that were captured during the [[Reef Wars]], <ref>'''Bungie (2014-9-9)''', ''Destiny, PlayStation 4, Activision Blizzard, [[Grimoire]]: [[Grimoire:Allies#Ghost_Fragment:_The_Queen|Ghost Fragment: The Queen]]''</ref> though it also contains [[Hive]], [[Vex]] and [[Cabal]] inmates who have attacked the Reef. These prisoners are considered "trophies" by the Reef, kept cryogenically frozen for the Queen's benefit. Though since [[Skolas]]' rebellion, the Queen now wants the prison cleared out, and has recruited the [[Guardian]]s to do it.<ref>'''Bungie (2015-5-19)''', ''Destiny: House of Wolves, PlayStation 4, Activision Blizzard, [[Grimoire]]: [[Grimoire:Activities#Prison of Elders|Prison of Elders]]''</ref>

A year after the [[Red War]], the undead [[Fallen]] horde known as the [[Scorn]] orchestrated an incredibly massive breakout from the prison, following a lack of order after [[Mara Sov]]'s and [[Variks, The Loyal|Variks]]' disappearances. [[Uldren Sov]] was behind the escape, and executed [[Cayde-6]] with his own [[Ace of Spades|weapon]] after he attempted to stop the breakout alongside the [[The Guardian|Guardian]]. Numerous prisoners not strictly affiliated with the Scorn, collectively referred to as [[the Wanted]], also escaped the prison, going on to roam [[Patrol]] zones and roost in [[Lost Sector]]s.

==Prison Layout==
==Prison layout==
 
The Prison of Elders is a massive complex in total, with at least four main prison blocks and a minimum of fifty-four floors. A-Block and B-Block are known to house  Fallen denoted as Scar and Rats respectively, C-Block contains a significant number of Cabal, and D-Block contains Hive. It is unknown what blocks the Taken and Vex are placed in, as they have not been shown to be associated with any particular one, though it is known that the Prison keeps a significant quantity of them. It could be that these blocks are organised in accordance to the security required to contain certain inmates, which would explain why the Fallen remnants of the [[House of Scar]] are placed in a different block from their unaffiliated rat counterparts.
