 Nightmares usually takes the form of a miasma of crimson reddish-black [[Darkness]] that extrudes tendrils radiating away at its core; often appearing as previous enemies of humanity in corporeal form or former past allies; both which associated with painful or traumatic memories. Eris surmised that the true purpose of the Nightmares is a tool to manipulate and exploit [[Guardians]] at their weakest; for the explicit temptation towards the [[Pyramids]] and their [[Darkness|promises of power]].<ref>'''Bungie (2019/10/1)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: [[Shadowkeep]], Lore: [[Lore:Letters From Eris#Regarding the Pyramid|Regarding the Pyramid]]''</ref>
 The Nightmares were found primarily near and in the [[Scarlet Keep]] citadel, which was built in close proximity towards the Pyramid. Beyond the Moon, Nightmares had propagated on other celestial bodies, roosting in [[Lost Sector]]s as its previous enemy tenants.<ref>'''Bungie (2019/10/1)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: [[Shadowkeep]], Lore: [[Lore:Letters From Eris#Regarding the Spread of Nightmares|Regarding the Spraed of Nightmares]]''</ref>
-Before the events of the ''[[Shadowkeep]]'' campaign, the Hive of the [[Hidden Swarm]] had experimented with various ways to harness the phantasmal essence of the Luna Pyramid and created a means to immunize themselves from its trauma-influenced abilities. Under the command of the Daughters of Crota, they even attempted to recreate [[Oryx, the Taken King]] as a Nightmare or even as a true version of himself; a necessary violation of the [[Sword Logic]], since the Taken King was never succeeded by his killers.  Unable to conjure Nightmares themselves, however, the Swarm opted instead to make use of the Nightmares conjured by Eris and the Guardians<ref>[https://www.ishtar-collective.net/entries/regarding-nightmares?highlight=corporeal Regarding Nightmares].</ref>
-Initially thought to be limited to targeting traumas related to Guardians, a week after containment efforts began, a [[Nightmare of Horkis, Fear of Mithrax|Nightmare of significance]] was sighted in the [[Anchor of Light]], intriguingly titled after [[Mithrax, the Forsaken]] as a fear. It is stated that the creation of Nightmares can reach across the Galaxy.
