The '''Harmony''' were an intelligent species whom the [[Hive]] destroyed in the [[Hive-Harmony war]].

==Overview==
The Harmony were a species who benefited from the patronage of the [[Traveler]]. The Traveler realigned the orbits of ten planets, including the Harmony's homeworld [[Ana-Harmony]], around a black hole, and in the black hole's polar jet, it built the [[Gift Mast]], a hollow construct that radiated pure silver [[Light]] and allowed the Harmony to thrive.<ref name="Forty Five">'''Bungie (2015/9/15)''', ''[[Destiny]]: [[The Taken King]] Playstation 4, Activision Blizzard, [[Grimoire]]: [[Grimoire:Enemies/Books_of_Sorrow#XLV:_I.27d_shut_them_all_in_cells.|XLV: I'd shut them all in cells.]]''</ref> The Harmonious Flotilla Invincible guarded the Harmony core worlds and the Nicha Thought-ship, a ship of unknown purpose.<ref name="Forty One">'''Bungie (2015/9/15)''', ''[[Destiny]]: [[The Taken King]] Playstation 4, Activision Blizzard, [[Grimoire]]: [[Grimoire:Enemies/Books_of_Sorrow#XLI:_Dreadnaught|XLI: Dreadnaught]]''</ref> The Harmony figured out how to weaponize their black hole and use its accretion disc to fire relativistic plasma jets; this was called the "Harmony Sting".<ref name="Forty Five"/> 

The Harmony had a relationship with the [[Ahamkara]], whom they called upon to grant wishes in times of need. An Ahamkara bone originating from the Harmony would one day make its way into the hands of Emperor [[Calus]] during his tenure as ruler of the [[Cabal]].

==History==
[[Oryx, the Taken King]] used his newly-built [[Dreadnaught]] to destroy the Harmonious Flotilla when the latter gathered to defend the [[Nicha Thought-ship]]. Oryx boarded the Thought-ship to learn the location of the Gift Mast, but was ambushed by the Vex Mind known as [[Quria, Blade Transform]]; it is unknown if the Harmony was actively allied with the Vex, or the Vex independently prepared the ambush. After dispatching Quria, Oryx assaulted the Harmony core worlds.<ref name="Forty One"/>

[[Xivu Arath]] led the offensive and the Harmony defended themselves with the Sting; but her attacks stalled fifty years on as the Harmony turned to "dragon-wishes", allowing their "wishful bishops" to challenge Xivu Arath directly in her Ascendant Realm but she was ultimately victorious. [[Savathûn]] then infiltrated Ana-Harmony in secret and set up Hive covens that sowed chaos among the Harmony for a century, and in the process she acquired an unknown secret. Oryx had his broods colonize the rubble of the black hole's accretion disk, allowing them to direct asteroids at the Harmony's fleets and worlds. When they had been weakened sufficiently, he deployed [[Seeder Ship]]s and invaded the Harmony outright. When Oryx toppled the Gift Mast, the remaining Harmony reportedly despaired and drowned themselves.<ref name="Forty Six">'''Bungie (2015/9/15)''', ''[[Destiny]]: [[The Taken King]] Playstation 4, Activision Blizzard, [[Grimoire]]: [[Grimoire:Enemies/Books_of_Sorrow#XLVI:_The_Gift_Mast|XLVI: The Gift Mast]]''</ref>

==Trivia==
*The Harmony were the first recorded species to be attacked by the Dreadnaught following its creation, and also the first to fall victim to its [[Oversoul|superweapon]].
*The so-called "Sting" of the Harmony which harnesses the black hole's jet as a weapon is almost identical to a Nicoll-Dyson beam, a (purely hypothetical) megastructure/weapon that uses a sun's output as a weapon.
