"Eris, why does Oryx have a prison?"
"Prison is the wrong term. He holds his victims, tortures them, then renders them down into chitin for his ships."
"Chitin. Lovely."

— Ghost and Eris Morn

The Hanging Crypts is a location within the Dreadnaught orbiting Saturn. It is accessible during The Sunless Cell Strike. The Hanging Crypts serves as a prison that captured organisms are sent to and are tortured for extended periods of time until they are rendered down into chitin for either the Dreadnaught itself, or for other Hive ships. The Hanging Crypts also includes the prison cell of Alak-Hul, the Darkblade, a powerful Knight who rebelled against Oryx.
