===The Ancient Past=== | |||
Long before the evolution of humanity, Venus and the other planets of the Sol System served as gravitational foci for interstellar streams of dark matter particles. When life evolved elsewhere in the System, the movements of lifeforms created perturbations in these looping streams, which caused the dark matter loops to "awaken" into consciousness. These nascent consciousnesses would one day become known to Humanity as the [[Nine]]. | |||
===Golden Age=== | |||
When the [[Traveler]] came to the [[Sol System]], it terraformed Venus, transforming its surface from a corrosive and superheated wasteland into a lush jungle, filled with life. | |||
During the initial exploration of Venus, ancient ruins predating humanity's existence were discovered, leading to a colonization rush by some of Earth's brightest minds.<ref>'''Bungie (2014/9/9)''', ''[[Destiny]]: Playstation 4, Activision Blizzard, [[Grimoire]]: [[Grimoire:Places/Venus#Ishtar_Sink|Ishtar Sink]]''</ref> It has been acknowledged that the ruins came from another Venus in a different reality.<ref>[https://www.ishtar-collective.net/cards/ghost-fragment-vex-4?highlight=Venus]</ref> Following the [[Collapse]], the [[Vex]] lay claim to those ruins and began protecting them for unknown reasons.<ref name="Planetview">[https://www.destinyplanetview.com/en/home '''Destiny Planet View''']</ref> | During the initial exploration of Venus, ancient ruins predating humanity's existence were discovered, leading to a colonization rush by some of Earth's brightest minds.<ref>'''Bungie (2014/9/9)''', ''[[Destiny]]: Playstation 4, Activision Blizzard, [[Grimoire]]: [[Grimoire:Places/Venus#Ishtar_Sink|Ishtar Sink]]''</ref> It has been acknowledged that the ruins came from another Venus in a different reality.<ref>[https://www.ishtar-collective.net/cards/ghost-fragment-vex-4?highlight=Venus]</ref> Following the [[Collapse]], the [[Vex]] lay claim to those ruins and began protecting them for unknown reasons.<ref name="Planetview">[https://www.destinyplanetview.com/en/home '''Destiny Planet View''']</ref> | ||
===City Age=== | |||
The [[Ahamkara]] had a strong presence on Venus during the [[City Age]], and appeared to be engaged in terraforming the planet for unknown purposes. The nature of the changes wrought by the Ahamkara are unclear; according to [[Eris Morn]], eyewitnesses disagreed over what they saw, or the order in which events had occurred. During the Great Ahamkara Hunt, a "paracausal phenomenon" appeared over the Ishtar Academy which prompted at least one Guardian who witnessed it to apparently attempt permanent suicide. Ultimately, the Ahamkara were exterminated on Venus by the Guardians, although their skeletal remains continued to telepathically influence those who encountered them. | The [[Ahamkara]] had a strong presence on Venus during the [[City Age]], and appeared to be engaged in terraforming the planet for unknown purposes.
