"Eris Morn returned to the Vestian Outpost. Because she spoke well, it was agreed that aid would be traded for intelligence and a long-term alliance. In this way, the Awoken were the first to know of the Great Navigator: his philosophies, his strategies, his weaknesses. And as the coven contemplated the possibilities laid wide before this god-king's far-flung sword, it was decreed that they would build a throne world beneath an energy well as blind as the ferryman Charon."
— Throne

Eleusinia is a location accessible in The Shattered Throne. It is an Throne World made for Mara Sov as a failsafe during the onset of the Taken War, with knowledge of the Sword Logic provided by Eris Morn and built with the aid of her Techeuns and Riven. Its entry 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 is now being used as a staging ground for Savathûn's daughter, Dûl Incaru, the Eternal Return, so that she can allow her mother to access the Distributary and ascend to god-like power through the realm's time dilation.
