*The Pyramid seen in the pillar room at the end of the last interference mission in Seasons of Arrivals is a miniature version of the titanic ships, albeit with the lights off. | *The Pyramid seen in the pillar room at the end of the last interference mission in Seasons of Arrivals is a miniature version of the titanic ships, albeit with the lights off. | ||
*A possible inspiration for the Pyramid ships is Arthur C. Clarke's short story, "The Sentinel." In Clarke's short story, an ancient alien structure was left upon Earth's Moon, described as being "made of a polished mineral, is tetrahedral in shape, and is surrounded by a spherical forcefield."<ref>[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Sentinel_(short_story) Wikipedia - The Sentinel (Short Story)]</ref> | *A possible inspiration for the Pyramid ships is Arthur C.

*Various artifacts associated with the Black Fleet recall the forms and colors of game pieces or tokens; for example, the [[Relic]] in the [[Enclave]] on [[Mars]] has a section that resembles a tic-tac-toe game, and the [[Dark City]] is filled with sculptures and blocks of black-and-white stone which recall the forms of chess pieces. These may thematically allude to the Darkness' view of the universe as a "game" to be won. | |||
