'''The World's Grave''' is an area of the [[Hellmouth]] on the [[Moon]]. It is a large archive that houses much of the [[Hive]]'s lore.

==History==
===The Guardian's Rise===
When [[The Guardian]] first came upon the forces of the Hive, they made several forays into the World's Grave. Most notably, to [[The World's Grave (mission)|recover]] all the information the Hive had of [[Earth]], and then to stop a [[Chamber of Night (mission)|ritual]] that was taking place in the area, which the invaders were using to drain the [[Traveler]]'s [[Light]]. <ref name="Destiny">'''Bungie (2015-3-3)''', ''Destiny'': Activision Blizzard</ref>

===The [[Taken War]]===
During the Taken War, the Guardian was forced to flee the depths of the Moon by passing through the World's Grave, which had is chambers sealed with [[Tomb Husk]]s by the [[Oryx, the Taken King|Taken King]]'s forces.

===[[Haunting of the Moon]]===
Several years later, [[Guardian]] forces returned to the Grave to find it in a state of semi-abandon, many of its halls now filled with discolored filth. The [[Nightmare of Omnigul, Will of Crota]] made her lair here, in the chamber where the ritual to drain the traveler took place years before, and was repeatedly hunted down by Guardian [[Fireteam]]s.

The World's Grave is the Hive's entire archive where they store their information of [[Earth]], their operations there and of every world that has been encountered, things that they fear and have buried in the archives, and overtaken by the forces of the [[Darkness]].<ref>'''Bungie (2014/9/9)''', ''[[Destiny]] - [[The World's Grave (mission)|The World's Grave]]''</ref> It even possesses a detailed schematic of the [[Dreadnaught]]<ref>'''Bungie (2015/9/15)''', ''[[Destiny]]: [[The Taken King]] - [[Ghost scan]]s: [https://www.ishtar-collective.net/transcripts/ghost-scan-a-dreadnaught?highlight=world%27s+grave A Dreadnaught]''</ref> and references of Hive anatomy based around ingesting [[Worms]] for survival.<ref>'''Bungie (2015/9/15)''', ''[[Destiny]]: [[The Taken King]] - [[Ghost scan]]s: [https://www.ishtar-collective.net/transcripts/ghost-scan-worm?highlight=world%27s+grave Worms]</ref> However, contents can also be expunged from the Hive's records of the World's Grave, including the existence of [[Nokris, Supplicant to Savathûn|Nokris]] after the latter

In ''[[Shadowkeep]]'', a [[Barrier Knight]] occasionally lurks in the area, and [[Lunar Scavenger]]s can also appear here.
