Even still, please just keep it this way, it is the most simple solution and doesn't sound weird.)

The Radial Mast as seen in the Downfall Story Mission

The Radial Mast was a paracausal artifact built by the Witness. It was intended to form a faster-than-light connection between the Traveler and the Veil so that the Witness could open a portal into the Pale Heart and enact its Final Shape. It was utilized by Emperor Calus and his Shadow Legion in their assault on Neomuna, seeking to bring it within range of the Veil and link it to the Traveler. This plan was ultimately thwarted by the Cloud Strider Rohan, who sacrificed himself in a self-detonation that destroyed the Mast.[1][2]

Overview[edit]

The Radial Mast appeared to be constructed out of similar materials and technology as many other artifacts of the Black Fleet, and in particular strongly resembled a larger version of the Suppressor devices utilized by the Shadow Legion throughout Neomuna, having a rectilinear box-like shape with an ornate golden armature projecting from its upper surface. Segments of the Mast's structure rotated when it was active, and when it was in the process of forming a connection with the Veil it opened up to reveal a seemingly abstract golden structure inside that resembled a more complex version of those seen within Suppressors.

Although the Veil is a source of Darkness, the Radial Mast resonated with Light;[1] after it was destroyed, the Witness took control of the Guardian's Ghost and used him in place of the Radial Mast, suggesting that Light was in some way necessary for forming the connection between the Traveler and the Veil.[3]
