Guided by messages from the [[Anomaly (artifact)|K1 Anomaly]], [[Clovis Bray I]] discovered an artifact or entity on Europa which he called "[[Clarity Control]]", which granted him the ability to combine its power and [[Radiolaria]] to create an ingredient vital to the [[Exo]] project that he dubbed "[[alkahest]]." In doing this, the [[Deep Stone Crypt]] was constructed to facilitate the production of alkahest, processing Vex from the blue hypergiant [[2082 Volantis]]. Following a series of mishaps involving Elisabeth Bray's objections to the project, Clovis sealed his consciousness within the Crypt for eternity. | Guided by messages from the [[Anomaly (artifact)|K1 Anomaly]], [[Clovis Bray I]] discovered an artifact or entity on Europa which he called "[[Clarity Control]]", which granted him the ability to combine its power and [[Radiolaria]] to create an ingredient vital to the [[Exo]] project that he dubbed "[[alkahest]]."

Nearly three years after the conclusion of the [[Red War]] and after the long journey of the main fleet back to the system, the Europan Pyramid re-emerged from the ice and out into the open surface, where it was quickly re-discovered. Later, [[Eris Morn]] and the [[Drifter]], who were contacted by the [[Elisabeth Bray|Exo Stranger]], were seen headed towards Europa to find the very ship. Additionally, [[Eramis, Kell of Darkness|Eramis]] and the [[House of Salvation]] arrived on Europa, acquired stasis from the pyramid and set up a [[Riis-Reborn|city]] there. Soon, [[Phylaks, the Warrior|Phylaks]] had claimed much territory from the Vex and [[Praksis, the Technocrat|Praksis]] was experimenting on them. Fallen built structures can now be found all over Europa. | Nearly three years after the conclusion of the [[Red War]] and after the long journey of the main fleet back to the system, the Europan Pyramid re-emerged from the ice and out into the open surface, where it was quickly re-discovered.

*In late 2013, Europa was a major location planned for the [[Comet]] that would eventually become ''[[The Taken King]]''.

**Concept art exists for a [[Cabal]] military installation known as Fleetbase Everest on Europa.

*In [[Rasputin]]'s [[Seraph Bunker|bunkers]] during ''[[Season of the Worthy]]'', the advance of the Pyramids is monitored on a simple star chart, using a dot matrix to represent the system's planets and moons along with the Pyramids themselves.
