What is the link between the witness and the darkness? Are the pyramid and black garden on the moon a coincidence? If not, does the witness have dominion over the bed like he does the taken? Why are the vex constructs in the garden of salvation raid warped? Is the witness reshaping the vex? What is the witness, what is his end goal?
I just wanted to put some questions out there, get some discussion started.

Edited by Shockwave 989: 7/1/2022 12:29:38 AMThe Vex within the Black Garden, specifically the Sol Divisive, are a faction within the larger network specifically focused around the Darkness. All Vex work towards the same goal but the Sol Divisive are the only ones known to engage in hostility with other Vex. They directed worship towards the Black Gardens heart in exchange for power. They suctioned power from the Pyramid remnants within the stump of the Tree of Silver Wings in order to use it as fuel. The Black Garden itself was not on the Moon, a portal to it was merely constructed there. Likely to aid in the Vex incursion on the Moon to claim the Pyramid for themselves, an effort that was thwarted by Guardians during Season of the Undying. As for the Witness, it’s unclear whether they’ve directly reached out to the Vex. We have no indication of such thus far. Not to mention the Witness and Darkness are separate, as are the Traveler and Light. The Witness is merely the primary user of Darkness, not an entity of Darkness itself.
