The Distributary is a pocket universe, accessible via a gravitational singularity that was created when the Traveler's Light and the Black Fleet's Darkness clashed with one another during the Collapse. The present location of the singularity in the Sol System is unknown; in an exchange with [[Ikora Rey]], [[Arach Jalaal]] speculated that following its formation, it could have fallen into the Sun, flown outward into interstellar space along the trajectory of the ''[[Yang Liwei]]'', or have been pulled by the gravity of the Sol System's planets to end up at some other unknown location. Jalaal also suggested that the light-warping phenomenon seen in the sky of the Dreaming City could be the Distributary's singularity, which would indicate that the Awoken had found a way to harness it.<ref>https://www.ishtar-collective.net/records/the-hidden-dossier?highlight=clarity+control</ref> | The Distributary is a pocket universe, accessible via a gravitational singularity that was created when the Traveler's Light and the Black Fleet's Darkness clashed with one another during the Collapse.

In the Distributary's universe, time flows differently, and Awoken society has had thousands upon thousands of years to flourish and build. The centuries in which Humanity suffered the [[Dark Age]] saw the exponential growth and abundance of the Awoken in their pocket universe. Only near the end of the Dark Ages were the Awoken able to detect and confirm that they were inside a singularity - identifying this information from bits and pieces of radio transmissions that the singularity ensnared from the [[solar system]]. | In the Distributary's universe, time flows differently, and Awoken society has had thousands upon thousands of years to flourish and build.
