The nature and purpose of the Black Garden is one of the longest-running mysteries known to the scholars of the Tower. According to [[Pujari]], the Black Garden is a reflection of the Traveler's actions: when it terraformed the "[[Mars|iron world]]," the Garden either came to be or changed to match. The mesa-like structure in the center of the Garden strongly resembles the [[Cradle]] left behind by the Traveler on [[Io]], which was also seemingly a product of the Traveler's terraforming activities. However, it was not created by the Traveler.<ref name = "Pujari"/> When the [[Sol Divisive]] Vex arrived, they attempted to control it and impose their own changes through rigorous engineering and earth-moving.<ref name="In the Garden">'''Bungie (2018/9/4)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: [[Forsaken]], PlayStation 4, Activision Blizzard, [[Lore]]: [[Lore:The_Forsaken_Prince#In_the_Garden|In the Garden]]''</ref> | |||
