Immediately before the Collapse, an entity or group of entities were detected just beyond the edge of the Solar System, in what was termed a "TRANSIENT NEAR EXTRASOLAR EVENT"; later information suggests this was the [[Black Fleet]] entering the Sol System. The only means of determining that a transient event had even occurred was through the detection of a 0.3-second displacement of gravity waves, as well as anomalous interactions in the local Higgs field traced to sterile neutrino scattering. An AI observing the event, the Warmind Rasputin, was able to derive some information but was unable to ascertain its mechanism. Rasputin conducted an "Omnibus analysis" of the event's effects on local spacetime, measuring a wide range of data points including direction, distance, range, speed, and size as well as a comprehensive pattern analysis of the event itself. This last set of data showed, to a certainty of "9 Sigma", a definite and measurable pattern that had a complex, almost linguistic, structure that demonstrated both intelligence and intent. | Immediately before the Collapse, an entity or group of entities were detected just beyond the edge of the Solar System, in what was termed a "TRANSIENT NEAR EXTRASOLAR EVENT"; later information suggests this was the [[Black Fleet]] entering the Sol System.

In an attempt to better understand the phenomenon by recreating all of its known variables (also known as a "bootstrap simulation"), Rasputin reran the data through a series of iterations which included a number of randomized inputs, in a process known as a Monte Carlo analysis. Despite this, it was unable to derive any definitive information about the event or its source; however, it was able to determine that whatever was behind the event was clearly a complex structure, acting with clear purpose. Rasputin concluded that the source of the event not only failed to conform to any known phenomena in the [[Wikipedia:Standard_Model|Standard Model]] of particle physics (thus labeling it "[[wikipedia:Anticausal_system|acausal]]"), it was also directed, acting with anger, and almost certain to reach the solar system in a short amount of time. As a result, the previously issued Skyshock alert was upgraded to OCP:EXTINCTION, and a number of defensive protocols were added.<ref name = "GrimoireDarkness">'''Bungie (2014/6/12)''', ''[[Destiny]]: Alpha PlayStation 4, Activision Blizzard, [[Grimoire]]: [[Grimoire:Enemies#Ghost Fragment: Darkness|Ghost Fragment: Darkness]]''</ref> In the interim, Rasputin activated TWILIGHT EXIGENT to shift his priorities towards maximizing the amount of Humans that would survive an attack by the Black Fleet; most notably, he would use this protocol to destroy information on the Fleet the [[New Pacific Arcology]] had discovered independently of his own analyses by killing those responsible. | In an attempt to better understand the phenomenon by recreating all of its known variables (also known as a "bootstrap simulation"), Rasputin reran the data through a series of iterations which included a number of randomized inputs, in a process known as a Monte Carlo analysis.

Following the arrival of the phenomenon, natural disasters tore across the solar system<ref>https://www.ishtar-collective.net/entries/severing#book-constellations</ref>. On Titan in particular, a gravitational anomaly deformed the shape of the moon, <ref>https://www.ishtar-collective.net/entries/kalkis-burning-sword-part-ii#book-last-days-on-kraken-mare</ref> causing devastating methane tidal waves to wash the surface of the moon and shatter the arcologies. Evacuation efforts began, but were silenced by the continued gravitational forces, as well as continuous Warsat fire that for unknown reasons targeted civilians leaving the moon. Scattered records exist of monstrous creatures and strangling miasmas of [[Darkness]] tormenting the people of Sol during the Black Fleet's assault. | Following the arrival of the phenomenon, natural disasters tore across the solar system<ref>https://www.ishtar-collective.net/entries/severing#book-constellations</ref>.

In what semi-mythical accounts survived to the City Age, it is said the Traveler released a huge pulse of energy, driving back the forces of Darkness to the outer reaches of the system but entering a state of dormancy as a result. However, in reality, the Traveler was not solely responsible for driving away the Black Fleet: [[Savathûn, the Witch Queen]] betrayed the [[Disciples of the Witness|Disciple]] [[Nezarec]], hid the [[The Veil|Veil]] on [[Neptune]], and apparently tricked the [[The Witness|Witness]] into leaving the Sol System<ref>https://youtu.be/9kkoxMXm2Ew?t=906</ref> | In what semi-mythical accounts survived to the City Age, it is said the Traveler released a huge pulse of energy, driving back the forces of Darkness to the outer reaches of the system but entering a state of dormancy as a result.

After the Black Fleet was pushed back, the Traveler released countless Ghosts. These small beings would go on to find their chosen ones, imbuing them with the gift of Light. After this, the Traveler entered a comatose state while humanity entered the [[Dark Age]]. | After the Black Fleet was pushed back, the Traveler released countless Ghosts.
