Lectern of Enchantment

The Lectern of Enchantment is a vendor station on the Moon in Destiny 2: Shadowkeep, which offers essence quests that provide lunar themed gear upon their completion.

Lore
The Lectern of Enchantment is made from a Hive Cryptoglyph stolen from the daughters of Crota and a table used by Eris Morn to cleanse Nightmare Essences found on Luna. It is used to craft the Dreambane Armor set the Guardian needs to infiltrate the Lunar Pyramid in addition to Luna-themed weaponry. The Guardian can spend Helium Filaments on the Lectern to convert it into a Phantasmal Fragment when can then be converted into a Phantasmal Core, which allows them to reuse Nightmare Essences to be cleansed upon returning to the Lectern of Enchantment.
