— Throne

Eleusinia is the throne world of Mara Sov and the setting of "The Shattered Throne" dungeon. It served as a sanctuary for Mara Sov to prevent her death in the Battle of Saturn, with knowledge of the Sword Logic provided by Eris Morn and built with the aid of her Techeuns and Riven. It is accessible through a gateway built beneath the Blind Well in the Dreaming City.[1]

It was desecrated by Oryx, the Taken King during the Taken War, and its corruption began seeping into the Dreaming City, cursing it as a result of Riven's last wish. It is now a staging ground for Savathûn's daughter, Dûl Incaru, the Eternal Return.

Trivia

  • Eleusinia is the second known Throne World formed by a being that is not a Hive or Worm. Notably, it was constructed "artificially" with the use of Riven's wish-magic and the Sword Logic.
  • The name Eleusinia is similar to the ancient Greek city of Eleusis, which is also the site of the similarly named Eleusinian Mysteries which are yearly initiations held for the cult of Demeter and Persephone.
