As the Mind responsible for bridging the Vex's own calculations into existence, it was difficult for the [[Vanguard]] to describe whether Atheon was the creator of the Vault of Glass or whether it created Atheon. Atheon had control over time within the Vault and converged causal pathways from every axis in the space-time bulk. This meant that Atheon could send [[Guardian]]s into the past, future, or spaces without time at its discretion. It was the centerpiece of the Vex [[Conflux]] network, which extends the gate networks across space and time as part of their plans to incorporate the Vex into reality itself.<ref>'''Bungie (2014/9/9)''', ''[[Destiny]], [[Grimoire]]: [[Grimoire:Enemies/Vex Axis Minds#Atheon, Time's Conflux|Atheon, Time's Conflux]]''</ref> | As the Mind responsible for bridging the Vex's own calculations into existence, it was difficult for the [[Vanguard]] to describe whether Atheon was the creator of the Vault of Glass or whether it created Atheon.

While it held total control over the time streams in the Vault, it became subject to the paradoxical strain of maintaining multiple time streams in its favor.

Atheon's attempts to separate the Guardians across different timestreams proved to be insufficient as their reconvening ultimately led to the destruction of itself, thwarting the Vex of their command over the Vault and the current time stream.<ref>'''Bungie (2014/7/7)''', ''[[Destiny]], [[Raid]]: [[Vault of Glass (raid)|Vault of Glass]]''</ref> | ||
