==Steps==
{{Verbatim}}
===Step i===
''Travel to the Moon and stave off the Hive resurgence alongside your fellow Guardians.''

;Note
See [[A Mysterious Disturbance#Transcript|A Mysterious Disturbance]] for a transcript of the mission.

===Step ii===
''Find Eris Morn at the encampment in Sanctuary.''
----
*'''Eris Morn''': Ghaul… The Fanatic… Crota. Like living nightmares, your past confronts you, Guardian. Old scars reopen around me as well. Phantoms of my friends return with a malice they never truly had. Every one of them, the twisted will of that looming Pyramid. We must not let it distract us from our goal: finding a way inside. Together, we have conquered our enemies. We will do it again.

''"A phantom of my deceased fireteam member Sai Mota haunts me. It is only a trick of the Pyramid."''

''From the Nightmare of Crota, you received an unknown object that harbors a dark energy. You leave it with Eris Morn so she can unearth its secrets.''

''In the meantime, the Moon hosts further mysteries to uncover regarding entering the Pyramid. The Hive seem to be exhibiting strange behavior that may be related.''

''Investigate the strange Hive behavior near the Scarlet Keep.''

===Step 1===
''Investigate the strange Hive behavior near the Scarlet Keep.''
*"In Search of Answers" completed

;Note
See [[In Search of Answers#Transcript|In Search of Answers]] for a transcript of the mission.

===Step 2===
''A Nightmare of Omnigul has stormed through the lunar encampment.''

''Return to Sanctuary to speak with Eris Morn.''
*Eris Morn visited in Sanctuary
----
*'''Eris Morn''': Sai Mota screams as she did the day Omnigul tore her apart and silenced her forever. Our fates nearly intertwined today when a Nightmare of Omnigul swept through camp. My survival was a gift, granted by the Essence you retrieved from the Crota Nightmare. Were we to truly harness the power of this Essence, it may provide aid in the fight against the Nightmares — and beyond, to the Pyramid itself. It knows we're coming. I can sense it. And we will have the upper hand.

''"It appears the screams of Sai's phantom have brought forth another burden for me to bear-the phantom of Vell Tarlowe."''

''As the Nightmare of Omnigul swept through camp, Eris noticed a strange reaction from the Essence of Despair. Upon further investigation, it appears the Essence can be of use in fighting these Nightmares. But first, it must be cleansed of any dark energy.''

''Take the Essence of Despair and purify it any way you can. Then, return to Eris Morn.''

===Step 3===
''Eris believes the Essence dropped by the Nightmare of Crota is a key to entering the Pyramid and learning the truth behind its presence on the Moon.''

''Cleanse the Essence of Despair to allow Eris to learn its secrets.''

''Complete the quest "Essence of Despair."''
*"Essence of Despair" completed

===Step 4===
''The Essence of Despair is cleansed. Its true purpose may now be uncovered.''

''Return to Eris Morn with the Cleansed Essence.''
*Eris Morn visited in Sanctuary
----
*'''Eris Morn''': In the depths of the Hellmouth, my very soul was shattered into pieces. It was all I could do to try and pick them up again. But some pieces, as you can see, required replacing. I must call upon one of them now — an ancient Talisman imbued with the magic of the Hive. Without it, the true power of the Nightmare Essence could not be harnessed. Through their union, we take our first step toward unearthing the secrets of the Pyramid. But it is only a step. Further Essences require further Hive magic, neither of which I possess. Acquire both, and our path to the Pyramid should present itself.

''"The Pyramid wastes no time—a phantom of Toland has arrived with every intention of distracting me. It will not work."''

''During Eris's time in the Hellmouth, she discovered many Hive curios. All that remained was an ancient talisman pulsating with Hive magic. Now, the union between the talisman and the Essence of Despair has yielded a powerful tool in the fight against the Nightmares.''

''Take this piece of Dreambane armor and use it to hunt the Nightmare of Omnigul.''

===Step 5===
''Eris used a Hive talisman of her own to create the first piece of protective armor.''

''To pass beyond the Pyramid's warding and discover what lies within, you'll need to wear a full set of Dreambane armor.''

''Take the first step and hunt the Nightmare of Omnigul.''
*Nightmare of Omnigul defeated
----
*'''Eris Morn''': Blind devotion is a dangerous thing, but when it came to Crota, Omnigul knew no other way. She raised for him an army of Hive and tore apart throngs of Guardians. Omnigul left much suffering in her wake. Suffering the Pyramid now uses against us. It expects us to fall to that which we have conquered. Not today.

::The Guardian defeats the Nightmare of Omnigul.

*'''Ghost''': Eris, the Nightmare of Omnigul is taken care of. For now, anyway. 

*'''Eris Morn''': Did you retrieve any further Essence? 

*'''Ghost''': We did. This time unique to this Nightmare. 

*'''Eris Morn''': I see. Then we will uncover its secrets together. Until then, the Hive await you inside the Scarlet Keep. Let me know what you find within.

===Step 6===
''Speak with Eris Morn to learn what she believes lies within the Scarlet Keep.''
*Eris Morn visited in Sanctuary
----
''You have acquired further Nightmare Essences but are out of Hive curios with which to create more Dreambane armor.''

''After discovering the Hive's ability to shield themselves from the Nightmares, Eris learned of a dark power possessed by the Hive inside the Scarlet Keep. This power may be our answer to how they've protected themselves—and our key to creating more Dreambane armor.''

''Investigate the dark power within the Scarlet Keep.''

===Step 7===
''Investigate the Scarlet Keep to locate more Hive curios and discover a connection between the Hive and the Pyramid.''

''Launch the strike "The Scarlet Keep" from the Moon on the Director.''
*Strike "The Scarlet Keep" completed

;Note
See [[The Scarlet Keep#Transcript|The Scarlet Keep]] for a transcript of the mission.

===Step 8===
''Cleanse the Essence of Anguish dropped by Omnigul.''

''It can be viewed in the Quests tab of the Director.''
*"Essence of Anguish" completed

===Step 9===
''Hashladûn's death has yielded information of great value: the existence of the Hive Cryptoglyph and where to find it.''

''Return to Eris Morn with news of the Hive Cryptoglyph uncovered during the strike "The Scarlet Keep."''
*Eris Morn visited in Sanctuary
----
*'''Eris Morn''': The Pyramid trembles under the weight of our progress. With every victory, we draw closer to conquering it. The spoils of Hashladun's death are twofold. We now know what the Hidden Swarm have been using to shield themselves from the Nightmares — and where it lies. The Cryptoglyph. If ever there was a more powerful set of runes the Hive use to conjure their magics, I have yet to learn of it… Of course, to acquire it, we must delve into horrific depths. Our Cryptoglyph lies… at the bottom of the Hellmouth.

''"It is no surprise that the Pyramid now inflicts the phantom of Omar Agah upon me. The Pyramid will do anything to stop us from getting inside."''

''Hashladûn has been disposed of, and with her death comes a path to victory: the Hive Cryptoglyph.''

''Travel to the Hellmouth and locate the Catacombs within. Hashladûn's Cryptoglyph lies inside for the taking.''

===Step 10===
''Somewhere in the horrific depths of the Hellmouth lies the Hive Cryptoglyph. With it, Eris Morn can craft further Dreambane armor for your quest to find a way inside the Pyramid.''

''The Cryptoglyph is yours to take from the Hive… if you can.''
*"In the Deep" completed

;Note
See [[In the Deep#Transcript|In the Deep]] for a transcript of the mission.

===Step 11===
''Taking the Cryptoglyph from the Catacombs has interrupted the dark rituals planned by the Hidden Swarm… for now.''

''With the Cryptoglyph and Eris's magic, you should be able to craft further Dreambane armor.''

''Return to Eris Morn with the Cryptoglyph.''
*Eris Morn visited in Sanctuary
----
::Eris turns to the phantoms.

*'''Eris Morn''': I. Don't Care. [grunts] 

::Eris turns to the Guardian.

*'''Eris Morn''': You reek of the Hellmouth. That armor will prove useful in the battles to come — but the Pyramid demands greater power to enter it. Three further pieces of armor — three more Nightmares. These diseases torture the Moon with their very presence. Send them back to the past where they belong, and in return they shall provide us with power. 

''"The phantom of Eriana-3 now haunts me alongside the rest. They are a burden that weighs heavy on my mind."''

''The Cryptoglyph must be used to empower the Lectern of Enchantment near Eris. In tandem with the cleansed Essence of Anguish, this will yield another piece of Dreambane armor.''

''Empower the Lectern of Enchantment with the Cryptoglyph before setting off to hunt the remaining Nightmares.''

''More Nightmare Essences are required to craft the remaining three pieces of Dreambane armor.''

===Step 12===
''Use the Cryptoglyph to empower the Lectern of Enchantment near Eris Morn.''
*Lectern of Enchantment empowered
----
''The Lectern of Enchantment glows with the magic of the Hive thanks to its newly affixed power source, the Cryptoglyph.''

''The Lectern of Enchantment can now alter Cleansed Nightmare Essences to create more Dreambane armor.''

===Step 13===
''Ikora has arrived on the Moon to see the Pyramid for herself and deliver a message.''

''Take the portal near Eris to meet Ikora in the Enduring Abyss on the Moon.''
*Ikora visited on the Moon

===Step 14===
''Defeat the three remaining Nightmare bosses to collect their Essences: the Essence of Fear, the Essence of Isolation, and the Essence of Pride.''

''Each piece of Dreambane armor crafted is another step closer to entering the Pyramid and searching within for anything that can help stave off the impending threat Ikora has warned us about.''
*Dreambane armor pieces created: x/3
----
;Fear

*'''Eris Morn''': Crota's Brood had an appetite for destruction that knew no bounds. Thus, Phogoth, the Untamed was created. To enact the will of evil upon all. Were he to have succeeded, we might not stand here today. Phogoth is fear incarnate. There's no Nightmare more fitting for the Pyramid to bring forth. And no Nightmare more fitting for you to slaughter.

::The Guardian enters the Summoning Pits and finds the Nightmare of Phogoth.

*'''Ghost''': That's the Nightmare of Phogoth. Let's get it.

::The Guardian defeats the Nightmare of Phogoth.

*'''Ghost''': The Nightmare of Phogoth is no more, Eris.

*'''Eris Morn''': And we grow stronger yet.
----
;Isolation

*'''Eris Morn''': Years ago, Taniks tore the Vanguard apart over a mere bounty. Andal Brask was murdered in cold blood, and the Hunter Vanguard was left without a leader. Taniks would ultimately die for this on the orders of Cayde-6. But the scars he left among all Guardians would never fully heal. Once again, the Pyramid takes advantage of our collective pain. We will not succumb.

::The Guardian defeats the Nightmare of Taniks.

*'''Ghost''': Taniks put up a fight. But we got him in the end, Eris.

*'''Eris Morn''': Good. We draw closer to the Pyramid with every victory.
----
;Pride

===Step 15===
''You now have a full set of Dreambane armor.''

''Return to Eris Morn for final preparations before entering the Pyramid.''
*Eris Morn visited in Sanctuary
----
*'''Eris Morn''': Of all the things that haunt me, hesitations is not among them. Our world collapsed in pain and agony under the weight of these pyramids. What lies within? More of the same? It doesn't matter. We must know. The unknown can act as a siren that draws us in… and swallows us whole. Please… do not let yourself be consumed.

''You now stand at the precipice of the future. The Pyramid holds many secrets within. Lift the veil, and find a way inside. Look for something within—anything that might help humanity fight the oncoming storm.''

''Return to the Enduring Abyss with a full set of Dreambane armor equipped, and find a way inside the Pyramid.''

===Step 16===
''What secrets lie within the Pyramid? It sits in silence, waiting for you.''

''Head to the Enduring Abyss, past the Pyramid's warding, and find a way inside.''
*"Beyond" completed

;Note
See [[Beyond#Transcript|Beyond]] for a transcript of the mission.

===Step 17===
''Return to Eris Morn with the Unknown Artifact.''
*Eris Morn visited in Sanctuary
----
*'''Eris Morn''': They are not our salvation… They're our destruction. This has been a manipulation from the very start. They know we're here. They know what we've found. The artifact you recovered may be tainted. After all, they wanted us to have it. But a treasure such as this is far too valuable to destroy. I must stay and study it with the utmost care. Whatever I discover, you will be the first to know.

''Eris believes that whatever these things are, they want nothing more than to destroy everything we hold dear.''

''Eris takes the Unknown Artifact from you. She desires to study it in hopes of making sense of all that you saw within the Pyramid.''
----
*'''Eris Morn''': In the meantime, the Nightmares continue to plague parts of our galaxy, leaving only suffering in their wake. If we ignore them, they fester and spread. How long before they reach the Last City? How long before our friends become infected with this same torment? We will not let this come to pass. These Nightmares must be kept at bay. Whatever it takes.

''Speak to Eris.''

''Your success in entering the Pyramid and obtaining the Unknown Artifact has prepared us more than ever for the looming threat of the Darkness. But this is no time for rest.''

*''Help Eris dispel the phantoms of her lost fireteam''

*''Hunt Nightmares at higher difficulties''

*''Uncover the secrets of the Moon's Lost Sectors''

*''Find further Nightmare Essences spread across the Moon''

*''Gather Phantasmal Fragments to choose Essences from the Lectern of Enchantment''

===Step 18===
''Share your findings from the Moon with the Vanguard leaders in the Tower.''
*Speak with Zavala
----
*'''Zavala''': Crota. Oryx. Ghaul. The list of those who have tried to strip us of our Light goes on and on. But this new threat… They will be like nothing we've faced before. I've often wondered about the Collapse. About how it might have been different had Guardians been there. But I don't have to wait for them to come back to have my answer. It's already standing right in front of me. They claim to be our salvation. No. We will be theirs.

''No need to waver, Guardian. The Vanguard stands behind you every step of the way.''

''The Light is our strength. The Darkness will never take that from us.''

''Fight on.''

===Step 19===
''Share your findings from the Moon with the Vanguard leaders in the Tower.''
*Speak with Ikora
----
*'''Ikora Rey''': Those things… Our "salvation." They drudge up our traumas, and for what? To distract us? Destroy us? We've spent too much time looking backwards at tragedies beyond our control. Towards the collapse. The Red War. …Cayde. Enough. Our enemy lays themselves bare out of ego. But they underestimate the strength of Guardians. They want a fight. We will give it to them.

''Your discoveries within the Pyramid are key to the future and survival of all—but the Nightmares continue their attack across the entire system, beyond our Moon. They must not be allowed to spread any further.''

''Stay vigilant. Keep Nightmares at bay on every planet.''

''Our fight has only just begun.''
