The '''Haunting of the Moon''' was a massive conflict between Guardians and the Hive of the Hidden Swarm on the Moon after a sudden awakening by the Lunar Pyramid. In that conflict, Guardians fought against the Hive brood and Nightmares that were conjured due to the Pyramid's awakening. In addition, Sol Divisive Vex mobilized from the Black Garden in droves to claim the Moon, drawn to the awakened Lunar Pyramid and lead by the Undying Mind.

Years later after the death of Crota and Oryx, the Hive on the Moon were left scattered and leaderless. The broods on the Moon would be consolidated into the ranks of the [[Hidden Swarm]], but they would retain their faith in the [[Sword Logic]] while the daughters of Crota [[Hashladûn, Daughter of Crota|Hashladûn]], [[Besurith, Daughter of Crota|Besurith]], [[Voshyr]], and [[Kinox]] held faith in the belief of Oryx's return, and schemed to return their linage to greatness.

Later the daughters of Crota would be greeted by [[Savathûn, the Witch Queen]], who would encourage them to take control of the Hidden Swarm to be what the Hive needed to challenge the Guardians and build a fortress. The Witch Queen would also offer them the essence of Zulmak so he could be resurrected as a puppet champion, and a choir of [[Deathsinger]]s led by Ir Airâm. The Daughters would accept, successfully unite the Hidden Swarm under their leadership and begin constructing the fortress known as the [[Scarlet Keep]]. However, unknown to them, this was a trick by Savathûn as she was the one who influenced the three siblings and placed Azavath in the body of Malkanth with the promise she would lead the choir. This was done so they would attract the attention of the Guardians who would kill the Daughters of Crota as she believed Oryx's bloodline had run its course. <ref> '''Bungie (2019/10/1)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: [[Shadowkeep]], [[Lore]]: [[Lore:Inquisition of the Damned#XI.X: Apocrypha|XI.X: Apocrypha]]'' </ref>

When [[Eris Morn]] began to hear whispers from her Ahamkara bone, leading her deep into the [[Moon]]. She would find and touch a black surface, unknowingly releasing a curse upon the Moon and summoning a phantom of a member of her [[First Crota Fireteam|fireteam]].

Due to the Hidden Swarm's re-emergence and this disturbance, the [[The Guardian|Guardian]] would be sent to investigate. They would fight through forces of the Hidden Swarm, defeating an [[Eye of the Swarm]] and [[Gothrax, Protector of the Swarm]], and would descend into the Scarlet Keep.

Going deep into the Scarlet Keep, the Guardian would encounter [[Nightmare Thrall|strange Thralls]] that [[The Ghost|Ghost]] stated weren't actually Hive and possessed an unfamiliar energy signature. Pursuing further they would see strange phantoms and discover the source of the disturbance to be a [[The Lunar Pyramid|Pyramid]] deep beneath Luna. They would continue to go closer and discover a strange aura, when they get closer this summons the [[Nightmare of Crota, Son of Oryx]]. The Guardian would attempt to defeat the Nightmare, however they would be overwhelmed as the [[Nightmare of Dominus Ghaul]] and the [[Nightmare of the Fanatic]] appeared. Aiding the Guardian, Eris Morn uses her Hige magic to transport the Guardian to her location.

The Guardian would attempt to defeat the Nightmare but would fail, as the [[Nightmare of Dominus Ghaul]] and the [[Nightmare of the Fanatic]] appeared. Eris Morn would use her magic to teleport the Guardian to her.  


Upon arriving at the location, the Guardian would speak with Eris and ask her what that Pyramid was. She would remind them that they knew the story of [[The Traveler]]'s sacrifice during the Collapse as the [[Black Fleet|Darkness]] had descended upon Humanity. Eris would reveal that this Pyramid was a remnant of the Black Fleet, responsible for creating these phantom aspirations known as [[Nightmare]]s, manifestations of their deepest fears and regrets. The former Hunt would question whether this Pyramid was struck down by the Traveler or buried beneath the Moon on purpose, but ultimately recognized that the truth was for them to discover. When the Guardian asks how they would uncover the truth, Eris would declare they would enter into the Pyramid itself.
Upon being teleported, the Guardian would ask Eris what that Pyramid was. She would tell them that they knew the story of [[The Traveler]]'s sacrifice and the [[Black Fleet|Darkness]] descending upon Humanity and that this Pyramid was a remnant of its existence. Eris would explain that these phantoms were [[Nightmare]]s, created by the Lunar Pyramid. Seeking to end this, Eris would explain that they must breach the Lunar Pyramid.

Arriving at the base that was set up near [[Sorrow's Harbor]], the Guardian speaks with Eris. She speaks about how the Nightmares of Crota, Ghaul, and the Fanatic now confront them and how the Nightmares of her friends return with a malice they never had. To learn more, Eris orders them to investigate the Hive's behaviour to learn more.

Eris orders them to investigate the Hive's behaviour to learn more.


When the Ghost asks where they must go, Eris explains that they must understand the Pyramid in order to enter it. She believed the Hive might have the answers they need as they have lived near the Pyramid for eons, and that due to the construction of the Scarlet Keep they clearly knew of its existence.

To learn more the Guardian arrives at the Altars of Sorrow to discover the Hive preparing a ritual. They discover that the Hive were attempting to draw in the Nightmares for a ritual and that the Nightmares appear to have no effect on them. Eris would state that they must learn how they have achieved this feat as that was the way to discovering how to enter the Pyramid. However, she is interrupted by the horrifying scream of a Hive Wizard. Ghost would remark they sounded like [[Omnigul, Will of Crota|Omnigul]] and they must return back to the campsite.

Arriving to camp, the Guardian speaks with Eris once again, who explains that the Nightmare of Sai Mota screamed like when Omnigul brutally murdered Sai Mota. Eris would reveal that a [[Nightmare of Omnigul, Will of Crota|Nightmare of Omnigul]] swept through the camp and she only survived due to the Essence of Despair, which they retrieved from the Nightmare of Crota. She would explain that the essence might assist them against the Nightmares and the Pyramid. Giving them the Essence, Eris would send them to purify it.

She would explain that the essence might assist them against the Nightmares and the Pyramid. Giving them the Essence, Eris would send them to purify it.


After they successfully cleanse the essence, the Guardian returns to Eris who uses it to craft a piece of Dreambane Armor to give them protection against the Nightmares. She then sends them to hunt the Nightmare of Omnigul and retrieve its essence. Beginning their hunt, the Guardian arrives at [[The World's Grave]] and defeats the Nightmare of Omnigul, retrieving the Essence of Anguish.

Returning to Eris, she would be unable to cleanse the essence due to being out of Hive curios. Discovering a dark power that the Hive possessed within the Scarlet Keep, she realizes that could be what was protecting them from the Nightmares and what they needed to create more Dreambane Armor. Thus a fireteam led by the Guardian is sent to infiltrate the Scarlet Keep to uncover more about this power.

Entering the Scarlet Keep, the Guardians fight their way through the forces of the Hidden Swarm. Eris explains that the tower at the Scarlet Keep might be where the Hive archives their immunity to the Nightmares. Upon arriving at the bridge to the tower, Hashladûn appears and the bridge leading to the rest of the Keep lifts away from before she teleports away. To break the spell to lower the bridge, the fireteam places [[Void]] charges into two ritual circles while fighting off Hive. With the bridge lowered they activate Altars to activate the gate leading to the [[Tower of Woe]]. At the top of the Tower, they confront Hashladûn and despite her power and strength, kill her, allowing the Guardians to retrieve a tablet mentioning a [[Cryptoglyph]].

Upon returning to Eris, she would explain that the Hidden Swarm were using the Cryptoglyphs to protect themselves from the Nightmares. The Guardian would be ordered by Eris to infiltrate the Hellmouth and find the Cryptoglyph of Hashladûn located within the [[Catacombs]].

Entering the depths of the Hellmouth, the Guardian makes their way to the Catacombs, closely located to the Lunar Pyramid. They discover the Cryptoglyph and kill Besurith and although they are ambushed by hordes of Hive, ultimately still manage to escape the treacherous Hellmouth. Returning to Eris, she tells them they must forge more Dreambane Armor before entering the Pyramid.

In order to look at the Pyramid with her own eyes, [[Ikora Rey]] arrives on the Moon, wondering how long it has been here. Eris appears, now being tormented by Nightmares of all her fireteam members, stating that the Pyramid's presence had been on the Moon for far too long. Feeling guilty, Ikora tells Eris that she feels responsible, however Eris reminds her that she is responsible for her own fate and that she hasn’t come here to apologize. Recognizing the threat, Ikora explains she had come here to tell her that she was right and that the individual responsible for the Collapse is returning. Overwhelmed by the torment of her Nightmares, Eris screams at them to be silent, panting as she is submerged in grief. Ikora reminds Eris that the Vanguard is at her disposal before ordering the Guardian to assist her with anything she needs.

Now fully prepared to enter the Pyramid, the Guardian infiltrates the Scarlet Keep and travels deep into the surface of the Moon. Fighting their way through hordes of Hive and making their way to where the Pyramid resides. Ghost senses that the Pyramid is waiting. After defeating more Hive, Ghost states that the Pyramid beckons them to come closer. Upon coming closer, the Guardian begins to get pulled in by a tracker beam, as Ghost's voice is possessed by the Voice in the Darkness, [[The Witness]]. The Witness declares that violence, beauty, and truth resided inside and there was no turning back now. Upon entering the Lunar Pyramid, the Witness welcomes the Guardian.

Travelling down the hallways of the Pyramid, The Guardian confronts and defeats the Nightmares of Dominus Ghaul, the Fanatic, and Crota. The Witness reminds them of the Light's failures, including the [[Red War]], the death of [[Cayde-6]], and the [[Great Disaster]], declaring that in Light there was only weakness, failure, and death. The Guardian then climbs upstairs where a statue resides. An artifact appears and the Guardian interacts with it, giving them a vision in the [[Black Garden]], where the Witness taking their form and appearance walks towards them. It declares it has heard their cries for help and it will soon answer. When the Guardian asks what it is it claims it is neither their friend nor enemy, but their "Salvation". After the vision ends, the Guardian returns to Eris with the mysterious artifact.

The artifact that the Guardian received from the Lunar Pyramid sent out a signal deep within the Black Garden. With the discovery of a portal on the Black Garden on the Moon, the Guardian leads a fireteam to enter the Black Garden. They fight their way through the forces of the [[Sol Divisive]], defeating the [[Consecrated Mind, Sol Inherent]], and later the [[Sanctified Mind, Sol Inherent]]. The fireteam would then discovered a [[Pyramid Scale]] forming shortly after the Mind's defeat, which led them to a veiled statue identical to the one in the Lunar Pyramid where the signal would end.

Shortly after the destruction of the Sol Inherent, [[The Undying Mind]] would return, creating hundreds of thousands of copies of itself across different timelines. It would direct the Divisive to begin an invasion of Luna, seeking to claim the Moon due to being attracted to the dark presence of the Pyramid.

Due to the Vex presence, Ikora Rey would order the Guardian to speak to Eris Morn, who would order them to hold off the Vex invasion. The Guardian would enter the Black Garden, defeat Vex forces, and destroy [[Crotheon, Gate Keeper]]. After the Guardians' assault in the Black Garden, Ikora Rey determined that the Undying Mind had returned and was attempting to recreate the [[Black Heart]]. Knowing that the Undying Mind had created many copies of itself across different timelines, Ikora would instruct the Guardian to retrieve Vex chassis components so they could build a portal and destroy the Undying Mind across every timeline.

With only two of Eris's Nightmares remaining, the Guardian defeats Nightmares across the Moon once more to retrieve the throwing knives of [[Omar Agah]]. They return to Eris as she states she tried to save Omar and recognizes that this phantom was not the friend she knew. The Guardian gives the retrieved throwing knives to Eris as she uses them to banish the Nightmare of Omar Agah. She comes to the conclusion that Omar made the talisman for her.

Now with only the Nightmare of [[Eriana-3]] remaining, the Guardian defeats enemy forces and discovers Eriana's lost letters from [[Wei Ning]]. Upon returning to Eris, she would state that she knew this phantom of Eriana was not truly the friend she knew, with Eriana herself saying 5hat she did not want to be remembered this way. Giving her the letters, Eris banishes the Nightmare of Eriana-3 and is finally at peace with the fates of her friends.
