'''Eleusinia''' is the [[Ascendant Realm|Throne World]] of [[Mara Sov]] and the setting of "[[The Shattered Throne]]" [[Dungeon]]. It was artificially created by Mara using knowledge of the [[Sword Logic]] provided by [[Eris Morn]] and with the aid of her [[Techeun]]s and [[Riven]]. Since Mara's apparent death in the [[Battle of Saturn]], it has become overrun by [[Taken]] due to Oryx's desecration of the realm. It is now a staging ground for [[Savathûn]]'s daughter, [[Dûl Incaru, the Eternal Return]]. It is accessible through a gateway beneath the [[Blind Well]] in the [[Dreaming City]].<ref>'''Bungie (2018/9/4)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: [[Forsaken]], Playstation 4, Activision Blizzard, Lore: [[Lore:The_Dreaming_City#Throne|Throne]]''</ref>

It was desecrated by [[Oryx, the Taken King]] during the [[Taken War]], and its corruption began seeping itself into the [[Dreaming City]], cursing it as a result of Riven's [[Last Wish|last wish]]. It is also a staging ground for [[Savathûn]]'s daughter, [[Dûl Incaru, the Eternal Return]], who commands the Taken curse.

*Eleusinia is the second known Throne World formed by a being that is not a [[Hive]] or [[Worm]]. Notably, it was constructed "artificially" with the use of Riven's [[Anthem Anatheme|wish-magic]] and the [[Sword Logic]].

*The name Eleusinia is similar to the ancient Greek city of ''Eleusis'', which is also the site of the similarly named Eleusinian Mysteries which are yearly initiations held for the cult of Demeter and Persephone.
