History of The Moon

The Moon is the Earth's moon and a destination in Destiny 2 introduced in the Shadowkeep expansion. It is home to a derelict Pyramid buried beneath the Scarlet Keep, a sign of the Darkness, and is overrun by Hive, Fallen and Vex forces and by Nightmares conjured from Guardians' pasts.

Overview

The Moon has two landing zones: the Sanctuary in the south, an enemy-free area with Eris Morn and the Lectern of Enchantment, and a second landing zone near the Scarlet Keep at Sorrow's Harbor in the north. Enemy factions on patrol are the Hive (the hidden Swarm), House of Dusk Fallen, and Sol Divisive Vex.

Regions

• Sanctuary - the safe hub.
• Anchor of Light (east) - holds the Temple of Crota and the Lost Sector K1 Communion.
• Archer's Line (west) - holds K1 Logistics and the Seraph Bunker.
• Hellmouth (centre) - the Hive's underground fortress, with several sub-locations (including the Gatehouse leading to the Circle of Bones) and the Lost Sector K1 Crew Quarters.
• Sorrow's Harbor (north) - the Altars of Sorrow public event and access to the Scarlet Keep.

Vendors and NPCs

Eris Morn and the Lectern of Enchantment are the Moon's vendors, in the Sanctuary.

Activities

Lost Sectors (K1 Communion, K1 Logistics, K1 Crew Quarters), the Altars of Sorrow public event, weekly Nightmare hunts, and champion-hosting private areas. Planetary materials are Helium Filaments; Phantasmal Fragments drop from defeated Nightmares.

Lore

The Pyramid under the Scarlet Keep, discovered during Shadowkeep, set the Guardians against Hive and Vex while Eris Morn hunted the Nightmares. Details here follow Destinypedia; later seasons have changed what is available on the Moon.
