| '''Neptune''' is the eighth planet of the [[Sol System]]. It is also a living consciousness, and one of the [[Nine]]. | | '''Neptune''' is the eighth planet of the [[Sol System]], with strong winds, glassy dunes, and high pressure at its surface. The ice giant has fourteen moons, including the [[Hive]] occupied moon of [[Nereid]].<ref>'''Bungie (2020/11/10)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: [[Beyond Light]] - [[The Fourth Mark]]''</ref> |
| An ice giant, it has fourteen moons, including the [[Hive]]-occupied moon of [[Nereid]] <ref>'''Bungie (2020/11/10)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: [[Beyond Light]] - [[The Fourth Mark]]''</ref>, [[Triton]], where the [[Neomuni]] established a small radio telescope array and turned it into a listening post, and [[Thalassa]], an asteroid-like moon explored by the Neomuni. The hidden city of [[Neomuna]] is located on an ocean below its outer cloud layer.

| | |
| ==Overview==
| |
| Neptune's [[Patrol]] area takes place in the city of Neomuna, with all its areas being part of it. There are three main public areas, each with a [[Lost Sector]], five private areas explorable in Patrol, and a few more accessible in [[Mission]]s, including parts of the [[Vex Network]]. The main landing zone is [[Strider's Gate]], an enemy-free area where the location vendor, [[Nimbus]], is located. After completing the [[Lightfall]] [[story]], players can also land at the [[Hall of Heroes]] and at [[Límíng Harbor]].
| |
| | |
| Player power level is capped to 15 lower than the current maximum when in this location, resulting in stronger, more resilient enemies.
| |
| | |
| The main enemy factions are the [[Shadow Legion]] and the [[Vex]] [[Sol Collective]], although the [[Taken]] appear in specific activities.
| |
| | |
| The [[Terminal Overload]] [[Public Event]] takes place in one of the three public areas, overriding all other Public Events for the day. Players can also land on its node.
| |
| | |
| The Vex constantly attempt to invade the city, and one of the public areas is designated weekly as the '''Vex Incursion Zone'''. In here, enemies will be more powerful, with [[Hobgoblin]]s constantly perched around the area on floating platforms. While it is harder to fight in the area, one can also find [[Strand]] sources that will empower a character with Strand abilities with a very short cooldown for 30 seconds. The highly rewarding [[Supernumerary Blitz]] Public Event can only happen there.
| |
| | |
| The planetary resource consists of Cloud Accretions.

| ===Golden Age===
| | At some point prior to the Collapse, Humanity established a location called [[Nefele Stronghold]]. Then, the Humans aboard The ECHO pods comissioned by [[Soteria]] survived the Collapse and managed to hide the planet and eventually developed inventions that surpasses the technology developed during the Golden Age before it, including enhancements that enables them to be a [[Cloud Strider]] at the expense of a maximum of a 10-year lifespan. |
| According to an audio log recorded by [[Chioma Esi]], the surface of Neptune was terraformed at some point.
| |
|
| |
|
| ===The Collapse===
| |
| Immediately prior to the Collapse, the [[Ishtar Collective]] AI [[Soteria]] foresaw the imminent arrival of the Black Fleet using its Vex-derived powers of prediction, and against the orders of [[Clovis Bray I]] prematurely launched a fleet of ECHO colony ships with a heading for the Andromeda Galaxy.<ref>https://www.ishtar-collective.net/entries/long-arm</ref> Before Clovis Bray managed to contain the AI within a [[Ares Spire|pillory installation]] and retake control of the fleet, Soteria split off a submind of itself within a single colony ship, which would eventually become caught in the gravity well of Neptune and crash into its surface.<ref>https://www.ishtar-collective.net/entries/into-the-sunset</ref> A second colony ship, the [[Exodus Indigo]], would subsequently land on Neptune during the [[Collapse]] when following a distress signal broadcast by the submind, bringing with it several high-ranking Ishtar Collective scientists such as [[Maya Sundaresh]] and [[Chioma Esi]]. These survivors of the Collapse would go on to found the city of [[Neomuna]], which remained hidden for centuries thanks in part to Neptune's erratic magnetic field.
| |
|
| |
| At some point during the Collapse, [[Savathûn, the Witch Queen]] killed the [[Disciples of the Witness|Disciple of the Witness]] [[Nezarec, Final God of Pain|Nezarec]] and stole the [[the Veil|Veil]] from his [[Pyramid]], hiding it away on Neptune so as to keep it from the Witness. As a result of her deception, the Witness chose to leave the Sol System and withdraw its Black Fleet to intergalactic space.
| |
|
| |
| ===City Age===
| |
| After [[Empress Caiatl]] and the [[Imperial Cabal]] arrived in the system, increased Cabal traffic around Neptune's gravity well was detected with an unknown purpose.<ref>'''Bungie (2021/2/9)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: [[Season of the Chosen]] - [[Crow]]: [[Uldren Sov#Quote|"Huh, Cabal Cruisers keep returning to Neptune's orbital path. I wonder if they are hiding something in its gravity well."]]''</ref> | | After [[Empress Caiatl]] and the [[Imperial Cabal]] arrived in the system, increased Cabal traffic around Neptune's gravity well was detected with an unknown purpose.<ref>'''Bungie (2021/2/9)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: [[Season of the Chosen]] - [[Crow]]: [[Uldren Sov#Quote|"Huh, Cabal Cruisers keep returning to Neptune's orbital path.

|
| Neptune would become a focus of Vanguard attention thanks to the conclusion of [[Season of Plunder]], as Osiris had gained visions of a city hidden upon its surface, gleaned from his time as the puppet of Savathûn. Despite all the searching performed during [[Season of the Seraph]], nothing was detected upon Neptune, until Rasputin confirmed the existence of the city, and that the information was kept hidden in a vault in the Cosmodrome.
| | After [[Savathûn, the Witch Queen|Savathûn]] possessed [[Osiris]]'s body following the appearance of the [[Wrathborn]] up until the moment [[Mara Sov]]'s coven of [[Techeun]]s excorsised her worm and returned Osiris's body, Osiris would stay in a coma until [[Mithrax]] purified the relics of [[Nezarec]] the Guardian recovered from the Pirate Lords recruited by [[Eramis, Kell of Darkness|Eramis]]. Mithrax would reduce the relics to a concoction to be delivered to [[Saint-14]], who then delivers it to Osiris, where he would wake up from his coma and tell Saint-14 the experience of being possessed by the Witch Queen and the visions of a city on Neptune (eventually called Neomuna). |
|
| |
|
| With the advent of [[Lightfall]], Neptune has become the subject of an invasion by the [[Shadow Legion]], seeking to take a paracausal artifact from Neomuna, known as the Veil. This artifact was hidden on Neptune by Savathûn, with the people of Neomuna using its powers to create technology such as the [[CloudArk]]. The shimmering city of Neomuna has now become scarred with damage, with an unquantified section of the city demolished by the parking of Calus's flagship, the [[Typhon Imperator]].
| | The Vanguard and Empress Caiatl's fleet believe he is being tricked by the Witch Queen, so decides to get knowledge from [[Rasputin]], but finds out that Rasputin has not yet returned. He and the Bray family suggest that Rasputin be rebuilt by recovering the subminds and housing them in a [[Seraph Cipher|root kernel]]. Rasputin is finally awake upon recovering data from [[Felwinter]]'s Ghost [[Felspring]], with Osiris inquiring Rasputin about the knowledge he holds of a city of Neptune (Neomuna) Osiris saw while being possessed by the Witch Queen. Rasputin and Osiris collaborate on the data referencing Nefele Stronghold. Then, Rasputin tasks the Guardian with recovering data related to Nefele Stronghold from a bunker in the Cosmodrome. They do so and hand it over to the Vanguard and Rasputin for decryption. He finally decrypts them confirming the existence of Neomuna and a mysterious paracausal object called "[[The Veil]]" prior to his sacrifice, when Eramis attempted to use the [[Warsat]]s to initiate ABHORRENT IMPERATIVE, a protocol designed to strike down the [[Traveler]], and allow [[Xivu Arath]]'s forces to invade Earth at the command of [[The Witness]]. The Guardian begin preparations for Neptune as the Witness instructs its new Disciple [[Emperor Calus]] to have his [[Shadow Legion]] attack Neomuna. |

| ==Trivia==
| |
| *It is not explained how [[Neomuna]] withstands the immense pressure of Neptune's interior.
| |
| *The surface of Neptune is depicted in-game as "sand" made of diamonds and surrounded by an ocean, likely inspired by a [https://web.archive.org/web/20131203065217/http://www.astronomynow.com/news/n1001/21diamond/ theory] that Neptune's surface consists of liquid carbon and solid diamonds.
| |
| *The massive storm located outside [[Neomuna]] is known as the 'Cerulean Front' and has been present for around 80 years before the events in [[Lightfall]].
