Black Garden

Line 33:

At some point, the [[Vex]] collective known as the [[Sol Divisive]] came to reside within the Black Garden, transforming it with their architecture and machinery.

===Post-Collapse and City Age===

The [[Cloud Strider]] [[Rohan]] of [[Neomuna]] stumbled upon the Black Garden early in his career, after being tasked with guarding the [[CloudArk]]-[[Nexus]] border by his mentor [[Tramontane]]. While trying to find a way out of the Garden, he witnessed the creation of the [[Black Heart]] by the [[Conceptual Mind]], and deduced that it was an attempt by the Sol Divisive to replicate the [[the Veil|Veil]]. He also overheard the voice of one of [[Maya Sundaresh]]'s many Vex-simulated copies, presumably as she conversed with her fellow simulated [[Ishtar Collective]] members.<ref>https://www.ishtar-collective.net/entries/deterministic-chaos</ref>

Some time later, a pair of [[Awoken]] from the [[Reef]], [[Uldren Sov]] and [[Jolyon Till]], explored the Black Garden. By then, the location of the Vex gate leading to it was common knowledge, as well as the fact that it could only be entered by tricking the Vex into opening it for them. To enter it, Uldren and Jolyon provoked a Cabal attack on the gate, forcing it to activate and produce a Gate Lord to defend it, and then slipped in while it was distracted.<ref>'''Bungie (2018/9/4)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: [[Forsaken]], PlayStation 4, Activision Blizzard, [[Lore]]: [[Lore:The_Forsaken_Prince#Through_the_Gate|Through the Gate]]''</ref> While in the Garden, they witnessed many bizarre sights: plants with roots of circuitry, vines with thorns shaped like letters, beetles that wrestled with each other despite being only hollow exoskeletons.<ref name= "In the Garden"/> They came across the site of a Cabal-Vex battle and interrogated one of the surviving [[Legionary|legionaries]], who claimed that he had been kidnapped by the Vex.

After learning of the Black Garden's existence from the [[Exo Stranger]], the [[Guardian]] traveled to the [[Reef]] to get information about the Garden's location. Queen [[Mara Sov]] and Prince [[Uldren Sov]] revealed that a [[Vex]] portal on [[Mars]] led to the Garden, but required the [[Zydron, Gate Lord|Eye of a Vex Gate Lord]] to access. After obtaining the Eye, the Guardian activated the Vex spire controlling the portal and then passed through the portal.<ref>[http://www.destinydb.com/activities/3467097080-the-gardens-spire '''Destinydb''': ''The Garden's Spire'']</ref> Deep in the Garden, the Guardian discovered the Black Heart, guarded by the [[Sol Progeny]] as it drained the [[Traveler]]'s [[Light]] and kept it dormant.<ref>[http://www.destinydb.com/activities/1577957526-the-black-garden '''Destinydb''': ''The Black Garden'']</ref> The Guardian defeated the Progeny, which in turn caused the destruction of the Heart.

Later, [[The Undying Mind]] arrived in the Garden and attempted to revive the Black Heart with assistance from the [[Sol Primeval]]. The Mind also attempted to separate the Garden from our timeline, but it was destroyed before it can do either.
