The Dreaming City is the Reefborn [[Awoken]]'s most significant stronghold.

The Dreaming City is built upon a flat disk, constructed from the remains of at least one unknown rocky celestial body. Its upper surface contains a "silver sea", water from which continually spills off the edge of the disk and is reclaimed by a stabilization ring that also holds the City in place. The entire city is a closed ecosystem, with water being recycled by hydrocapture systems within the bedrock<ref>'''Bungie (2018/9/4)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: [[Forsaken]]'', Pilgrimage: Harbinger's Seclude, Cliffs</ref>. | The Dreaming City is built upon a flat disk, constructed from the remains of at least one unknown rocky celestial body.

A massive ring-shaped structure can be seen in the sky of the Dreaming City, along with what appears to be a gravitational singularity directly overhead. The ring is a portal that controls access to the Dreaming City from the [[Tangled Shore]], and utilizes some form of cloaking technology to seal the Dreaming City off from the outside world<ref>'''Bungie (2018/9/4)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: [[Forsaken]]'', Pilgrimage: Gardens of Esila, Bridge</ref>. The nature of the singularity is unknown, but [[Arach Jalaal]] speculated that it could be the singularity that leads to the Distributary, the Awoken's original homeland.<ref>https://www.ishtar-collective.net/records/the-hidden-dossier?</ref> | A massive ring-shaped structure can be seen in the sky of the Dreaming City, along with what appears to be a gravitational singularity directly overhead.

After The Queen and her followers left the Awoken homeland, the [[Distributary]], she created the Dreaming City as her own personal realm. There, she and other Awoken could reside in peace. Uldren Sov desired to bring the Queen a gift and returned with an [[Ahamkara]] named [[Riven]], who would stay in the City for the rest of her life. | After The Queen and her followers left the Awoken homeland, the [[Distributary]], she created the Dreaming City as her own personal realm.

While Riven was instrumental in the creation of the Dreaming City, she was not the only Ahamkara who visited the Dreaming City.

Three years following the Taken War, the Dreaming City remained infested by Oryx's leftover Taken unaware from the outside until [[Uldren Sov]] was manipulated by Riven into unsealing the City using a shard of the [[Traveler]] and the Taken-tainted Darkness within himself, unleashing an [[Voice of Riven|agent]] of hers which promptly devoured Uldren. The Guardian quickly killed the Taken Chimera and fulfilled their vengeance for [[Cayde-6]]. The [[Scorn]] that accompanied Uldren and the [[Fikrul, the Fanatic|Fanatic]] remained in the city to exact revenge for their deaths and were met with opposition by the Taken. | Three years following the Taken War, the Dreaming City remained infested by Oryx's leftover Taken unaware from the outside until [[Uldren Sov]] was manipulated by Riven into unsealing the City using a shard of the [[Traveler]] and the Taken-tainted Darkness within himself, unleashing an [[Voice of Riven|agent]] of hers which promptly devoured Uldren.

However, upon the death of Dûl Incaru, the Dreaming City reverted back to the state just after Riven's death, when the curse was first unleashed. The curse then spread in the same manner it had previously, with it being revealed that the curse trapped the Dreaming City within a time loop that resets upon Dûl Incaru's defeat. Through messages left by an unknown sender, it is revealed that the loop was made possible through the wish Riven granted upon her "death", and modeled upon Vex simulations overseen by the Taken Vex Mind [[Quria, Blade Transform|Quria]]. With the curse looping every three weeks, there is currently no known way to permanently rid the city of the curse despite the efforts of both [[Rasputin]] and [[Osiris]]. Following every reset, the Guardian made reports to Mara Sov using the Oracle Engine, occasionally visiting her personally within her new throne world. | However, upon the death of Dûl Incaru, the Dreaming City reverted back to the state just after Riven's death, when the curse was first unleashed.

Two years after the Taken Curse first settled on the Dreaming City, Xivu Arath turned her attention back on the city, following the Witch Queen's disappearance. Unburdened by the bond of siblinghood, the Hive God of War had her [[High Celebrant of Xivu Arath|High Celebrant]] establish at least three [[Cryptolith]]s in the Awoken city, creating powerful [[Wrathborn]] from the local Hive including [[Dul Arath, Retainer of Xivu Arath]] and [[Xillox, Oppression of Xivu Arath]]. Ultimately, the High Celebrant was also lured and taken down in the city after a long hunt by [[the Guardian]] and [[the Crow]]. | Two years after the Taken Curse first settled on the Dreaming City, Xivu Arath turned her attention back on the city, following the Witch Queen's disappearance.

The Guardians cleanse a corrupted egg, then reactivate the Oracle Engine to recover the final egg. Once all of the eggs are recovered, Crow shares his plans with the Guardian, Mara, and Osiris: he volunteers to be the first Guardian to enter the Pale Heart via the Ley Lines since the 15th wish only allows one individual to enter it. The Guardian returns to the [[Wall of Wishes]] and enters the 15th and final wish. The final wish causes Riven to meet the same fate as Taranis before her, but allows Crow to enter the Ley Lines so Osiris can replicate the link with the Veil and allow [[The Coalition|the Coalition]] to enter the Pale Heart and finally confront the Witness before it can enact the [[Final Shape]]. | The Guardians cleanse a corrupted egg, then reactivate the Oracle Engine to recover the final egg.
