The '''Dreaming City''' is a [[Destination]] in ''[[Forsaken]]'', featuring many endgame activities, such as the [[Last Wish]] raid and the [[Blind Well]] horde activity.<ref name = "NewExpansion">[https://www.kotaku.com.au/2018/06/destiny-2s-next-expansion-is-changing-a-lot/ '''Kotaku''' - ''Destiny 2's Next Expansion Is Changing A Lot'']</ref> It is the most sacred location of the Reefborn [[Awoken]], and is where they study and meditate on greater paracausal powers through dreaming.<ref name = "ReallyDead">[https://www.eurogamer.net/articles/2018-06-15-destiny-2-why-bungie-killed-cayde '''Eurogamer''' - ''Bungie says Destiny 2 expansion Forsaken really does kill Cayde for good'']</ref> It served as the prison of the last known Ahamkara, [[Riven]], before becoming cursed upon her death. It now serves as the backdrop for an endless battle between the [[Awoken]] with their [[Guardian]] allies and the [[Taken]], [[Hive]], and [[Scorn]]. [[Petra Venj]] is the world vendor for the city. To access the city, Guardians must complete the campaign of ''[[Forsaken]]'' and embark on a long and difficult questline. | |||

It was created by [[Mara Sov]] after her departure from the [[Distributary]] as her personal realm. At one point, Prince [[Uldren Sov]] brought Mara a baby [[Ahamkara]] named [[Riven]]; whose assistance was proven essential in the City's construction with its wish-magic. The Dreaming City was built by Mara Sov and Techneun [[Illyn]], the Coven Mother; this artifical world was nothing but bare rocks when they started.<ref>'''Bungie (2018/9/4)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: [[Forsaken]], Playstation 4, Activision Blizzard'', Pilgrimage: Garden of Esila, View</ref> | ||

After The Queen and her followers left the Awoken homeland, the [[Distributary]], she created the Dreaming City as her own personal realm. There, she and other Awoken could reside in peace.

As the curse continued to blight the Dreaming City for three weeks, Petra was able to identify the true source of the city's Taken curse: [[Dûl Incaru]], a daughter of the Witch-Queen and the mastermind behind her mother's scheme to access the [[Distributary]] using the Awoken secrets found within the City, commanding the curse from Mara's desecrated throne-world of [[Eleusinia]]. With the curse now at its peak, the [[Techeun]]s used the [[Blind Well]] (which was kept charged with [[Light]] by the Guardians) and open a rift into Eleusinia, where the Guardians could confront the Witch and her [[Darkblade]] bodyguards. | As the curse continued to blight the Dreaming City for three weeks, Petra was able to identify the true source of the city's Taken curse: [[Dûl Incaru]], a daughter of the Witch-Queen and the mastermind behind her mother's scheme to access the [[Distributary]] using the Awoken secrets found within the City, commanding the curse from Mara's desecrated throne-world of [[Eleusinia]].

The curse then spread in the same manner it had previously, with it being revealed that the curse trapped the Dreaming City within a time loop that resets the events of Riven's death and Dûl Incaru's defeat. Through messages left by an unknown sender, it is revealed that the loop was made possible through the wish Riven granted upon her "death", and modeled upon Vex simulations overseen by the Taken Vex Mind [[Quria, Blade Transform|Quria]]. While the curse looping every three weeks, there is currently no way to permanently rid the city of the curse despite the efforts of both [[Rasputin]] and [[Osiris]]. Following every reset, the Guardian made reports to Mara Sov using the Oracle Engine, occasionally visiting her personally within her new throne world. | ||

Two years after the Taken Curse first settled on the Dreaming City, Xivu Arath turned her attention back on the city, following the Witch Queen's disappearance. Unburdened by the bond of siblinghood, the Hive God of War had her [[High Celebrant of Xivu Arath|High Celebrant]] establish at least three [[Cryptolith]]s in the Awoken city, creating powerful [[Wrathborn]] from the local Hive including [[Dul Arath, Retainer of Xivu Arath]] and [[Xillox, Oppression of Xivu Arath | Two years after the Taken Curse first settled on the Dreaming City, Xivu Arath turned her attention back on the city, following the Witch Queen's disappearance.
