| '''The Sunken Pyramid''' is a [[Pyramid]] of the [[Black Fleet]] formerly commanded by [[Rhulk, Disciple of the Witness]]. It was moved to [[Savathûn, the Witch Queen|Savathûn's]] [[Court of Savathûn|Throne World]] by Rhulk at the request of the [[The Witness|Witness]] so that Rhulk could keep watch over the Witch Queen and provide assistance in the form of an inexhaustible supply of [[Worm]] larvae. Upon Savathûn's rebirth in the Light, the Pyramid was neutralized and sank into the swamp below, with a Light curse subsequently placed upon it to trap Rhulk inside.

| ==Overview and layout== | | ==Overview and layout== |
| From the outside, the Sunken Pyramid's hull appears cracked and fractured, likely a result of the damage inflicted by Savathûn after she was reborn in the Light. The interior contains vast cavernous spaces, similar to the [[Europan Pyramid]], throughout which can be found strange, vaguely humanoid or equine statues carved out of mineral-like substances, along with massive structures in semblance of a city.
| | Unlike its brethren, the Sunken Pyramid appears more open and less cramped but still possesses a similar chiseled rock-like texture seen on the surface and its inner sanctums. From the outside the ship appears cracked thanks to the efforts of [[Savathûn, the Witch Queen]] and her acquisition of the Light which is most notable for such a strong feat. |
| | |
| The Pyramid's interior contains many artifacts and trophies collected by Rhulk during his time as a Disciple, including a rib taken from the [[Leviathan (Fundament)|Leviathan]] of [[Fundament]] prominently displayed at the center of one open-air platform. Calcified and dissected [[Worm]] larvae can also be found throughout the ship, encased within blocks of a resin-like substance and often separated into segments. Some of these larvae can also be seen fused into calcified Scorn. Some parts of the Pyramid are also decorated with colorful murals, some of which seem to chronicle the history of its former owner Rhulk, as well as others which depict the Hive, the Witness, the [[Guardian]]s and even the [[The Traveler|Traveler]]. All of this makes the Pyramid's interior disturbingly resemble a twisted sort of art gallery or natural history museum. The monstrous creature known as the [[The Caretaker|Caretaker]] tended Rhulk's collection prior to its defeat by a Guardian Raid fireteam.<ref name="VOTD">'''Bungie (2022/2/22)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: [[The Witch Queen]] - [[Vow of the Disciple]]''</ref>

| ==History==
| |
| As with the other Pyramids, the Pyramid that would eventually become known as the Sunken Pyramid was presumably created by the Witness' Precursors, and became part of the Witness' Black Fleet when it left its home system in pursuit of the Traveler. Later, it was gifted to Rhulk, the first of the Witness' Disciples. Sometime later, Rhulk visited the gas giant Fundament and dove into its ocean in pursuit of the imprisoned [[Worm|Worm Gods]]. After making a bargain with the Worms and securing their fealty to the Witness, he took their mother [[Xita, the Nurturing Worm]] aboard his Pyramid,<ref>'''Bungie (2022/2/22)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: [[The Witch Queen]] - Item Description: [[Resonant Fury Suit (Titan)#Resonant Fury Helm|Resonant Fury Helm]]''</ref> where she remained ever after in servitude to Rhulk, who used her as a source of power for his super weapon, the [[The Upended|Upended]].<ref name="VOTD"/>
| |
| | |
| After being tasked with watching over [[Savathûn, the Witch Queen|Savathûn]], Rhulk took his Pyramid into her Throne World, where it would remain for countless millennia as he kept tabs on the Witch-Queen's activities and oversaw the production of Worm larvae for Savathûn's Hive. <ref name="Resonant Fury Cowl">'''Bungie (2022/2/22)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: [[The Witch Queen]] - Item Description: [[Resonant Fury Suit (Warlock)#Resonant Fury Cowl|Resonant Fury Cowl]]''</ref>
| |
| | |
| After Savathûn died and was reborn in the Light, Rhulk attempted to destroy the Witch-Queen and her Throne World using the Upended, but Savathûn managed to thwart his efforts and disable the Pyramid, fracturing its hull and causing it to fall into the swamps below. Savathûn then used the [[Wellspring]] within her realm to place a Light curse upon the Pyramid, imprisoning Rhulk inside.<ref name="Resonant Fury Bond">'''Bungie (2022/2/22)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: [[The Witch Queen]] - Item Description: [[Resonant Fury Suit (Warlock)#Resonant Fury Bond|Resonant Fury Bond]]''</ref> After Savathûn was defeated by the Guardian, the Sunken Pyramid was invaded by a Guardian Raid fireteam, who fought through the Scorn defending the Pyramid and defeated the Caretaker and Rhulk.<ref name="VOTD"/> The Scorn continued to infest the Pyramid afterwards, necessitating repeated forays into the Pyramid by the Guardians to clear them out.<ref>'''Bungie (2022/2/22)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: [[The Witch Queen]] - [[Preservation]]''</ref>
| |
| | |
| Following the destruction of the Witness, a group of the [[The Dread|Dread]] led by the Weaver [[Kerrev, the Erased|Kerrev]] ventured into the Sunken Pyramid in search of a power that could reshape them into forms that better suited their desires.<ref>'''Bungie (2025/2/4)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: [[Episode: Heresy]] - Item Description: [[Future Proof#Lore|Future Proof]]''</ref> Kerrev and eir compatriots traced the power to a vault deep within the Pyramid, but a fireteam of Guardians found and stopped them before they could open it. The Guardians later opened the vault themselves, revealing the source of power contained within: the chisel of [[Oryx, the Taken King]], with which he had carved the [[Tablets of Ruin]].<ref>'''Bungie (2025/2/4)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: [[Episode: Heresy]] - [[Sundered Doctrine]]''</ref>

| | On the inside of the Pyramid however, it is much more open unlike its [[Pyramid (Luna)|Lunar]] counterpart but similar to its [[Pyramid (Europa)|Europan]] counterpart, possessing strange statues carved out of the same material as the ship along with massive structures in semblance of a city. Some of the statues appear like strange humanoid creatures and even horses. |

| ==Trivia==
| | The Pyramid also acts as a sort of library, cataloguing Rhulk's entire backstory through the use of murals. Some of these murals appear as depictions of [[Hive]], the Witness, the [[Guardian]]s and even the [[Traveler]]. Some of the more gruesome parts of this collection would be a rib of the [[Fundament]] [[Leviathan (Fundament)|Leviathan]] placed in one of its open rooms. Another gruesome addition would be the calcified and dissected [[Worm]] larvae seen throughout the ship, frozen in calcified constructs, dissected and separated in various segments. Some of these worms can also be seen fused into calcified Scorn. All of this makes the Pyramid's interior disturbingly resemble a twisted sort of art gallery or natural history museum. |
| *The calcified Scorn found within the Pyramid produce the same growling and gurgling sounds as living Scorn when a Guardian draws near them, indicating either an audio glitch or, more disturbingly, that the Scorn within the displays are still alive.
