{{Quote|We are not your friend. <br>We are not your enemy. <br>We are your... salvation.|[[The Witness]]}}

The '''Black Fleet''' is an armada of massive [[Darkness]]-aligned tetrahedral vessels, known as [[Pyramid]]s. It is commanded by the entity known as [[The Witness|the Witness]] and its [[Disciples of the Witness|Disciples]]. The Black Fleet is the antithesis of [[The Traveler|the Traveler]], and is responsible for the cataclysmic destruction of countless civilizations uplifted by it, with the [[Whirlwind]] of [[Riis]] and the [[Collapse]] of [[Earth]] being two of the most recent examples.

==Overview==
The Black Fleet is closely associated with the [[Darkness]], so much so that it was once thought by the people of the Last City to be synonymous with the Darkness itself. Little is known about this mysterious fleet and the beings who appear to command it, but available information suggests that they have actively pursued the Traveler for countless eons,<ref name="Journey">[https://guides.gamepressure.com/destiny/guide.asp?ID=26797 '''Game Pressure''': ''[[A Guardian Rises]]'']</ref> bringing destruction to any civilization it has uplifted.

Voices have contacted [[The Guardian]] when near the Pyramids on Luna, Io, and Europa; in all cases, these voices have spoken through the Guardian's Ghost. The Ghost refers to the unknown speakers as 'The ones who spoke through me' rather than referencing the Pyramids directly. These voices likely belong to the [[The Witness|Witness]], due to the telltale usage of "we" rather than "I", as The Witness refers to itself.

On [[Europa]], several artifacts originating from the Black Fleet have been encountered, including Stasis Locks, Cruxes of Darkness, [[Splinter of Darkness|Splinters of Darkness]] and the [[Ziggurat]]. Following [[Mars]]' reappearance in the Sol System after having vanished during the Pyramids' arrival, another artifact of the Black Fleet known as the [[Relic]] was found to have appeared in a cliffside overlooking Mars' [[Cradle]].

==History==
===The Ancient Past===
According to the creature known as [[Ahsa]], the [[Pyramids]] were constructed by the species that gave rise to the [[the Witness|Witness]], and were later used by the Witness when it left its homeworld in pursuit of the Traveler.<ref>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GN7QkdWMV18&t=626s</ref> Over time, the Witness would recruit Disciples from various species, including [[Rhulk]] and [[Nezarec]], each of whom would be granted their own Pyramid.

===The Golden Age===
Sometime in the late Golden Age, [[Clovis Bray (corporation)|Clovis Bray]] and the [[Aeronautics of China]] launched a joint venture called [[K1]] to discover extra-spatial transmissions emitting somewhere beneath the surface of the [[Moon]]. Excavating at the [[Mare Cognitum|Ocean of Storms]], they uncovered an [[Anomaly (artifact)|artifact]] acting as a transceiver for the Pyramids, to which they believed to be communicating with the [[Traveler|Traveler's]] origin. Unfortunately, exposure to the artifact created [[Nightmares]] that plagued the crew with insomnia, hallucinations, and major psychosis to which [[Clovis Bray (corporation)|Clovis Bray]] had to have the artifact sealed in a sophisticated [[The Anomaly|containment system]]. [[Kuang Xuan]], the project commander of the K1 mission, instead turned to one of their sites' antennae to intercept the artifact's transmissions and had the project on lockdown. The team would stay isolated on the Moon for a time until the [[Collapse]], which they were slaughtered by the sudden appearance of the [[Hive]].

Before the [[Collapse]], [[Clovis Bray I]] led an expedition to the [[Jupiter|Jovian]] moon [[Europa]], which he had received visions of from the K1 Anomaly. 
He and his team uncovered a large statue of a veiled, humanoid female figure, which he appropriately named [[Clarity Control]]. It is believed that the statue was sent by the Pyramids two decades prior, if not in direct communication with them.

===The Collapse===
During the [[Collapse]], the Black Fleet invaded the [[Sol System]] in force, laying waste to the worlds and colonies of the [[Solar System]] as they descended upon the [[Traveler]] and [[Humanity]], nearly wiping out all of humankind in the process. It was only thanks to the counterattack of the Traveler, and the interference of [[Savathûn]], that humanity was able to survive and have some of their people be resurrected as [[Guardian]]s, so that hope would still exist for the Solar System in their fight against the [[Darkness]].

===Red War===
[[File:The Darkness.jpg|thumb|300px|The Pyramids reacting to the Traveler's wave of Light]]
After the death of [[Dominus Ghaul]] at the hands of [[The Guardian]], the [[Traveler]] reawakened and sent a pulse of Light throughout the Sol System, and eventually the outer reaches of the Milky Way. This pulse eventually reached the Pyramids as they lay dormant in intergalactic space, and as the pulse washed over the fleet, they reactivated and began moving ''en masse'' toward the Sol System.

===Nightmares on Luna===
A single [[Pyramid (Luna)|Pyramid]] from the fleet was discovered by the [[Hive]] buried beneath the surface of Earth's Moon for an unknown amount of time, but their efforts were unsuccessful at awakening its power. It remains unknown how long this vessel was buried on the Moon, although [[Eris Morn]] speculates that it may have been struck down by the Traveler during the Collapse, or left behind intentionally. It became active by [[Eris Morn]] upon touching it, creating [[Nightmare]]s from the Darkness to haunt the Traveler's Light-bearing [[Guardians|Risen]].

Multiple Pyramids can be seen in the background when the Guardian receives a vision of the [[Black Garden]] from the [[Unknown Artifact]] found within the Pyramid on Luna. Later a Guardian [[Garden of Salvation|excursion]] into the Garden revealed that the [[Sol Divisive]] Vex having been communing with a Pyramid Scale and the [[Consecrated Mind, Sol Inherent|Sol]] [[Sanctified Mind, Sol Inherent|Inherent]] minds were destroyed to stop its spread of Darkness.

===The Darkness Descends===
Around the time of the [[The Almighty|Almighty's]] descent upon [[The Last City]], the Pyramids themselves had finally reached the outer [[Solar System]] and were approaching from all sides. At first, the fleet consisted of one lead Pyramid and seventeen smaller ones, numbering in eighteen total. As the ships passed through the Kuiper belt, the number increased to thirty-two. Seven additional Pyramids arrived, with the fleet itself approaching [[Neptune]]. The following week, the fleet increased to forty-three and began to make their way towards the inner system while the lead Pyramid held position above Neptune. The fleet next set its sights on [[Uranus]], now forty-nine in numbers, and was on its way to reaching [[Saturn]]. Uranus was swiftly taken as the fleet had now grown to fifty-one vessels strong. 

Eventually, the fleet increased to fifty-four vessels, though there may be other Pyramids that are undetected or have yet to reach Sol. With [[Pluto]], Neptune, and Uranus claimed by the Darkness, the Lead Pyramid and the rest of the fleet have set their sights on Saturn and its moon of [[Titan (moon)| Titan]]. This was all observed by [[Rasputin]] from his [[Seraph Bunker| Seraph Bunkers]] who shared this information to the [[Vanguard]]. All the Guardians and Rasputin could do now was wait in anticipation for the Darkness to descend.

Unbeknownst to Rasputin, however, another Pyramid had broken off from the main fleet and descended upon the inner system undetected. By the time of ''The Almighty's'' destruction, this Pyramid had reached [[Jupiter]] and made its way towards [[Io]] along with its escort fleet of Pyramid Scales.

===Arrival===
[[File:Io Pyramids.jpg|335px|thumb|[[Pyramid Scale]]s touch down on Io.]]
{{Quote|You bring weapons. You will not need them. We offer only truth.|The Witness through [[The Ghost]].}}

Several days after ''The Almighty's'' destruction, the Pyramids had [[Arrival of the Black Fleet|spread throughout the system]]. Alarmingly, many of these Pyramids appeared on worlds that were nowhere near where Rasputin had detected them. It is unknown if these vessels had broken off from the main fleet or if they are new ones who arrived in the system undetected. The first of these Pyramids made its way to Io. In a similar fashion to the attack on The Almighty, [[Anastasia Bray|Ana Bray]] deployed satellites against the Pyramid in hopes that it would be destroyed. However, the Pyramid remained undamaged and continued its approach on the Jovian moon, also managing to disable the [[Warmind]] and render the [[Warsat]] Network entirely useless.

After the Warmind fell, the [[Pyramid (Io)|Io Pyramid]] touched down near the [[Cradle]] and began deploying its Pyramid Scales in the [[Echo Mesa]] nearby. Eris Morn departed for it as soon as it arrived, resulting in [[Zavala]] tasking the Guardian to investigate the Pyramid and retrieve Eris. As the Guardian approached the vessel, the Darkness possessed their Ghost and brought them closer to the Pyramid. However, the Guardian was pulled into the [[Ascendant Realm]] by [[Savathûn, the Witch-Queen]]. After fighting through numerous Taken and Hive, the Guardian finds Eris in the center of the Cradle, where a [[Tree of Silver Wings]], spawned by the Traveler's Light, was situated inside. Over the week, the Pyramid continued to corrupt Io, deploying Pyramid Scales and infesting the planet with Darkness. The Drifter dispatched a special Bank device to collect Energy of the Darkness, while at the same time having Guardians fight off an arms race with the [[Cabal]] and the Vex, along with Savathûn's Taken forces.

Almost a month after the arrival of the first Pyramid, three more touched down on Titan, Mars, and [[Mercury]]. The [[Pyramid (Titan)|Titan Pyramid]] was the first to start deploying its Pyramid Scales, scuttling the Hive and Fallen in the [[New Pacific Arcology]] in an arms race to claim Darkness seeping in blooms from the alien vessels. From the depths of the Pyramid back on Io, a large force of Pyramid Scales was sent out to survey Io's surface, to presumably prepare it for terraforming. 

With the crippling of Rasputin, the choice was made by Zavala to evacuate the four worlds that had come under threat from the Pyramids. The Young Wolf would aid Zavala, by making final preparations, by completing a list of objectives for each destination following the needs of [[Sloane]], [[Asher Mir|Asher]], [[Vance]], and [[Anastasia Bray|Ana]]. Though the evacuation intended to have them leave, they chose to do the opposite, with Vance and Asher entering the [[Infinite Forest]] and [[Pyramidion]] respectively, and Sloane choosing to hold the line against the Pyramid occupying Titan, and the Hive. When it came to overseeing Ana Bray's exodus from Mars, the Young Wolf assisted in her attempt to salvage what was left of Rasputin, which resulted in his remains being placed in a specialized [[Engram]]. With what remains of Rasputin's mind preserved, Ana would make her final preparations before departing Mars. In the following weeks, Guardians were pulled into the Ascendant Realm, reminiscent of the [[Court of Oryx]] on the [[Dreadnaught]], this time encountering [[Nokris]], Savathun's supplicant. Upon defeating him, the Darkness finalized its message, telling Guardians there is an ancient power deep beneath the surface of Europa and that it must be embraced, displaying each race with a shadow of a Pyramid, with one shadow lingering over the Fallen.

A short while after the final message the Pyramids would finally consume Mars, Mercury, Titan, and Io in shadow, the final fates of those who stayed behind may never be known. However, despite the Darkness growing even more suffocating, hope was seemingly rekindled as quite unexpectedly the Traveler began to pulsate with energy as it started healing the wounds sustained from liberating itself from Ghaul's cage. The resulting energy would eventually erupt into a cascading flash of light.

===The Call to Europa===
{{Quote|The Light believes you thankless. Nothing more than a soldier asked again and again to do its bidding.<br>So we want to thank you. With [[Stasis|a gift]]. To help you finally take control.|The Witness to [[The Guardian|the Guardian]]}}

After the healing of the Traveler, the Young Wolf would arrive on the frozen wilds of Europa to find a Pyramid much like the one on Luna. However, a new [[Eramis, Kell of Darkness|threat]] was also rising on the moon, one in direct contact with the Darkness itself. 

Once the Young Wolf arrives on Europa, they are tasked by [[Variks, the Loyal|Variks]] to fix the communication relays on top of the safehouse he is staying in. However, as the Ghost is fixing the second relay, a dark presence is detected and Ghost says, "The ones who spoke through me." As soon as the Ghost fixes the final relay, a [[Crux of Darkness]] teleports in and blows away the blizzard surrounding the facility. It then leads the Guardian towards the Pyramid all the while talking about how the Light sees the Guardian as an obedient soldier who asks no questions and how the Darkness wishes to thank them with a gift to help them take control. Upon arriving, The Pyramid sends out a [[Ziggurat]]. After the Guardian has defeated Eramis, she reaches out towards the Pyramid as she is being frozen, as if to signify that she is not worthy of the Darkness's powers. Later on, once the Guardian has finally attuned themselves to the power of [[Stasis]], they are teleported to a veiled statue inside the Pyramid and finally unlock Stasis for full use. It would also be during this time that the Darkness would seek out Savathun to punish her for her attempted interference, forcing the Witch Queen into hiding. [[Mara Sov]] would also reemerge having deployed her forces and fleets against what she referred to as the Black Fleet, however, none of these assets or even the Harbingers would be effective against the Pyramids. Ada-1 would also marshal the assets of the Black Armory against the Pyramids, however even these unique weapons would prove useless against the power of the Darkness.

Mara Sov would eventually divulge that during her absence after the events of Forsaken she did battle with the entity that directs the Black Fleet as well as the Hive, Taken and Scorn. She described the entity as a voice in the darkness.

===No More Pieces Left To Place===
{{quote|We have seen enough.|The Witness}}

After having been shrouded in darkness for some time following the arrival of the Pyramids, [[Mars]] suddenly reappeared. The surface of the planet was largely changed, with large swaths that appeared to be temporally displaced, bordered by curtains of eerie green light. There was also a new structure built into the cliffs overlooking Mars' [[Cradle]], bearing the same architectural hallmarks as the Pyramids.

In the pursuit of uncovering the truth of Savathûn's Throne World, the Young Wolf found themselves once more on Europa, this time at the [[The Communion|base of the Pyramid itself]]. Fighting through hordes of [[Imperial Deserter|Cabal deserters]] under the command of [[Valus Dralgur, the Exiled|an exiled Valus, Darlgur]], the Young Wolf entered the Europan Pyramid. Within the Pyramid was seemingly a city of structures, grander and more elaborate than what was able to be seen within the Lunar Pyramid. After purging the deserters from the Pyramid, the Guardian communed with the Darkness, gaining the ability of [[Deepsight]]<ref>'''Bungie (2022/2/22)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: [[The Witch Queen]] - [[Mission]]: [[The Communion]]''</ref>.

A [[Sunken Pyramid]] was later discovered within [[Savathûn's Throne World]]. A fireteam of Guardians [[Vow of the Disciple|ventured inside]], finding [[Rhulk, Disciple of the Witness]], who had been imprisoned within. Similarly to the Europan Pyramid, the Throne World Pyramid was immense in scale, housing many structures within. After overcoming many trials and obstacles, the fireteam faced Rhulk in combat and defeated him.

After the defeat of Rhulk, the Young Wolf would find themselves having to regularly travel [[Preservation|back into the Pyramid]], needing to clear out the Scorn as they attempted to further harness the Darkness.

===The March On Neomuna===

{{Quote|Disciple. You know what must be done.|The Witness after communing with the Traveler}}

[[File:Lightfall Intro Battle.png|350px|thumb|The Coalition defends the Traveler from the Black Fleet.]]

After Rasputin's final sacrifice to prevent [[Eramis]] from using the Warsat Network on the Traveler, the Black Fleet finally advanced on the Traveler and began their assault on the defending forces of the Coalition, effortlessly destroying any craft that came too close with waves of Resonant energy. The Traveler responded to the attack with a massive beam of [[Light]], which struck the lead Pyramid containing the Witness and created blooms of paracausal flora. However, the Witness itself was unaffected, and floated out from its Pyramid to meet the Traveler face-to-face. Eight Pyramids followed it and took up a formation around the Traveler resembling an eight-pointed star, and halted the Traveler's attack by striking it with a concerted Resonant energy surge.

After the Witness succeeded in creating a link between the [[Traveler]] and the [[the Veil|Veil]] using the Guardian's [[Ghost]], it opened a triangular portal on the surface of the Traveler. The Pyramids entered the portal, seemingly dissolving into purplish mists of energy as they did so, followed by the Witness itself.

==Trivia==
*The ending cutscene of the Red War campaign shows a single massive Pyramid in the center of a fleet of smaller Pyramids. It was later seen depicted by Mara Sov's hologram of the Pyramid fleet in the Queen's Court, which also shows a massive Pyramid in the midst of smaller ships.
*The tetrahedral forms of the Pyramids allude to the philosophy of the Darkness; just as the Darkness seeks to reduce the universe to a maximally simplified state, tetrahedrons are the simplest possible three-dimensional shape. Also of note is that the Pyramids appear to have faces representing the three archetypal triangles: regular, isosceles and right.
*The Pyramid on Luna can be seen from the peak of the Scarlet Keep, through the gate that [[Hashladûn, Daughter of Crota|Hashladûn]] comes through (you may also need to jump to catch a glimpse). 
*When the player encounters the Pyramid on Luna there are two pieces of dialogue that their Ghost can say, dependent on whether the player has completed the final Invitation of the Nine where the Pyramids were briefly pictured. If it has not been completed, Ghost will say that he does not recognize the ship, but if the player has completed it he will say that he does recognize the Pyramid and notes the impossibility of it being there. 
**Ghost Quote 1: ''"What... is that? I've never seen anything like it."'' 
**Ghost Quote 2: ''"That's... one of those Pyramids. It can't be. That should not be here."''
*Early in [[Season of the Worthy]], it was revealed that the Pyramid fleet had already reached the Kuiper Belt and made contact with [[Osiris]]. The fleet attempted to take control of [[Sagira]] in the same fashion that the Pyramid of Luna did to the Guardian's Ghost.
*The total time it took for the Darkness to arrive in the solar system was 1,007 days. That is the time between the release of Destiny 2 on the 6th of September 2017 and the start of Season of Arrivals on the 9th of June 2020.
*Though the tetrahedron shape of the Pyramids has remained consistent with their appearance in both concept art as well as the ending cutscene for the Red War campaign, the ships that are featured within Season of Arrivals are far more sleek and feature less prominent segmented sections. The most likely reason for this change was a redesign, however this cannot be confirmed. 
*A possible inspiration for the Pyramid ships is Arthur C. Clarke's short story, "The Sentinel." In Clarke's short story, an ancient alien structure was left upon Earth's Moon, described as being "made of a polished mineral, is tetrahedral in shape, and is surrounded by a spherical forcefield."<ref>[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Sentinel_(short_story) Wikipedia - The Sentinel (Short Story)]</ref>
*Various artifacts associated with the Black Fleet recall the forms and colors of game pieces or tokens; for example, the [[Relic]] in the [[The Enclave|Enclave]] on [[Mars]] has a section that resembles a tic-tac-toe game, and the [[Dark City]] is filled with sculptures and blocks of black-and-white stone which recall the forms of chess pieces. These may thematically allude to the Darkness' view of the universe as a "game" to be won.
*In ''[[The Final Shape]]'', it is revealed that the Precursor statues in the [[The Pale Heart|Pale Heart]] contain the dissenting minds that were cut out from the collective of the [[The Witness|Witness]] after opposing its ideals of a [[Final Shape]]. However, whether they apply to the entirety of the veiled statues in the Black Fleet remains largely unclear and up to speculation.
