 ==History==
 ===In the Distributary===
-After the establishment of [[Awoken]] society in the [[Distributary]], the eutechs were charged with preserving the technology that had been brought with them into the pocket universe.<ref>'''Bungie (2018/9/4)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: [[Forsaken (expansion)|Forsaken]], PlayStation 4, Activision Blizzard, [[Lore]]: [[Lore:Marasenna#Ecstasiate_III|Ecstasiate III]]''</ref> Under the rule of Queen [[Devna Tel]], two eutechs, [[Imar]] and [[Yara]], rose to prominence as her advisors. Imar was notable for being one of the few male eutechs.<ref>'''Bungie (2018/9/4)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: [[Forsaken (expansion)|Forsaken]], PlayStation 4, Activision Blizzard, [[Pilgrimage (patrol)#Statue_of_Devna_Tel|Pilgrimage]]''</ref>

 ===In Service of the Reef===
+After her faction departed the Distributary, Mara decreed that the paracausal forces apparent in the Solar System, including those newly inherent to the Awoken, required an order of witches to explore and tend to them, as such forces could not be explained through science alone. Those eutechs who accompanied her out of the Distributary were thus invested as the first Techeuns.<ref name = "Techeun Force"/>
 The Techeuns possess strange powers of mysterious origins; they wear blue, jewel-like implants of some kind,<ref name="Queen 2">'''Bungie (2015/5/19)''', ''[[Destiny]]: [[House of Wolves (expansion)|House of Wolves]], PlayStation 4, Activision Blizzard, [[Grimoire]]: [[Grimoire:Allies/The_Queen#Ghost Fragment: The Queen 2|Ghost Fragment: The Queen 2]]''</ref> which may enhance or refine these powers.
