Editing Dreaming City

|image = [[File:Dreamingcity.png|350px]]

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>.  

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>

The City is named after a group of unknown entities known as the [[Dreaming]], who are connected in some way with the will of the Awoken people as a whole<ref>'''Bungie (2018/9/4)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: [[Forsaken]]'', Pilgrimage: Spine of Keres, Cave</ref>.

While Riven was instrumental in the creation of the Dreaming City, she was not the only Ahamkara who visited the Dreaming City. Another wish-dragon, [[Azirim]], was barred from entering the City but still visited the second solstice festival, massacred many Awoken by beguiling them into leaping from the cliffs<ref>'''Bungie (2018/9/4)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: [[Forsaken]], [[Lore]]: [[Lore:The Dreaming City#Azirim|Azirim]]''</ref>. [[Eao]], another male Ahamkara, resided in a chamber known as Eao's Nest before he learned the secrets of the Awoken and escaped the City, threatening to reveal them to the Warlocks of the [[Last City]]. The Awoken, specififcally [[Sjur Eido]], hunted and killed him for this betrayal, with his bones becoming various [[Bones of Eao|powerful]] [[Knuckles of Eao|items]] for the Guardians of [[Earth]]<ref>'''Bungie (2018/9/4)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: [[Forsaken]], Pilgrimage: Harbinger's Seclude, Eao's Nest''</ref>. [[Taranis]] would eventually meet Riven once he was able to find a path into the Dreaming City on his own and together, they would create whims.

During the onset of the Taken War, Mara Sov ordered the Dreaming City to be evacuated and locked down on the advent of the God-King [[Oryx, the Taken King|Oryx]] and his [[Hive]] armadas, leaving Riven behind as its only prisoner. She and the Techeuns sealed off the Watchtower, barring the only known point of entry into the city, and charged [[The Spider]] with protecting the tower while turning a blind eye on his illicit dealings.

During the [[Battle of Saturn]] however, the Techeuns attempted to escape the death impulse of the [[Oversoul|superweapon]] from Oryx's [[Dreadnaught]] via emergency selfgates to the Dreaming City as the Awoken fleet was annihilated, but Mara remained behind as part of her gamble with [[Eris Morn]].<ref>'''Bungie (2018/9/4)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: [[Forsaken]], [[Lore]]: [[Lore:The Awoken of the Reef#Tyrannocide V|Tyrannocide V]]''</ref> Unfortunately, Shuro Chi's efforts to save Mara left her selfgate open long enough for the Taken essence of Oryx's death impulse to seep into the Dreaming City,<ref>'''Bungie (2018/9/4)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: [[Forsaken]], [[Reverie Dawn Armor#Reverie Dawn Casque / Helm / Hood|Reverie Dawn Helmet]]''</ref> which resulted in the Techeuns becoming [[Taken]] by Oryx and causing the Dreaming City to be overwhelmed with Taken forces, which eventually made its way to Riven joining the Taken King.<ref>'''Bungie (2018/9/4)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: [[Forsaken]], [[Reverie Dawn Armor#Reverie Dawn Cloak / Mark / Bond|Reverie Dawn Class Item]]''</ref> Realizing the danger of their clutch being at risk of being corrupted, Taranis eventually grants his own wish to scatter Riven's eggs into the [[Ley Lines]].

After the Guardian recovers one of Riven's eggs from the [[The Imbaru Engine|Imbaru Engine]] inside [[Court of Savathûn|Savathûn's Throne World]] and discovers a solution to bypass the portal into the Pale Heart created by [[The Witness|the Witness]], they return to the Keep of Voices. The Witness sends in the [[Sol Divisive]], a [[Vex]] collective loyal to it, to invade the Dreaming City and hamper their attempt to bypass the portal. They visit Riven's corpse and recover a tooth to allow the Techeuns to conjure her spirit along with the heart they extracted after her physical form was destroyed. Riven's spirit rises but refuses grant the 15th wish unless the remaining eggs are recovered from [[Riven's Lair|her lair]]. Despite the threat of having the Ahamkara terrorize the system again, Queen Mara agrees to Riven's bargian.<ref>'''Bungie (2023/11/28)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: [[Season of the Wish]] - [[Final Wish (mission)|Final Wish]]''</ref>
