The '''New Pacific Arcology''' | The '''New Pacific Arcology''' was a [[destination]] on [[Titan (moon)|Titan]]. It was once one of the great cities of the [[Golden Age]], but was evacuated and abandoned during the [[Collapse]]. Over the centuries, the decaying ruins have begun sinking into the moon's methane oceans and have recently become infested with [[Hive]]. It was added in [[Destiny 2]] and vaulted with the release of [[Beyond Light]]. | ||

Much later, when the [[Black Fleet]] arrived in the system, a Pyramid arrived on the arcology's surface. This prompted [[Eris Morn]] and [[The Drifter (character)|The Drifter]] to attempt to [[Contact|harvest the darkness ]] from [[Pyramid Scale|smaller pyramids]] which had been seen touching down on the arcology. However, [[Savathûn, the Witch Queen]] dispatched platoons of [[Taken]] to the arcology to interrupt this ritual, resulting in a vicious battle between the guardians and the Taken and Hive. Eventually, the entire moon of Titan vanished leaving the fate of those aboard the arcology uncertain. | Much later, when the [[Black Fleet]] arrived in the system, a Pyramid arrived on the arcology's surface.

*Some of the structures in the Sinking Docks have names, such as "Kemphaan" and "Poelruiter". These are Dutch birds that usually live in wet areas, suggesting that some of the first people on Titan were Dutch. This could also be a reference to the fact that the Dutch are famous for dealing with water, or in this case, the oceans of Titan. | *Some of the structures in the Sinking Docks have names, such as "Kemphaan" and "Poelruiter".
