'''The Menagerie''' was a six-player [[Arena]] activity introduced in [[Season of Opulence]] and vaulted with the release of [[Beyond Light]].
Calus describes it as the oldest deck in the Leviathan, and it was his home in exile. It now serves as an enclosure to all the different species Calus collected amidst his journeys, including the [[Hive]], [[Vex]], and [[Arkborn]], and pits them against the [[Guardians]] invited aboard for their pleasure and glory as well as his own entertainment.

The goal of the Menagerie is to accumulate enough points to arrive at the boss. To do so, players must complete various objectives within the varying encounters. When players do well within an encounter, Calus will demand that the Guardians must fight better opponents, where higher power leveled enemies will spawn. There is no darkness zone in the normal variant of the Menagerie, however, the respawn time is increased, players will have to pick each other up if one dies to progress more through the encounters. On heroic, however, there will be a darkness zone for every encounter, and a wipe will result in the team being sent to orbit. There exists 3 rotating boss fights ([[Hasapiko, Beloved by Calus]], [[Arunak, Beloved by Calus]], and [[Pagouri, Beloved by Calus]] and 7 total encounters to run through. The encounters include:

===The Mockery===
The Mockery is a mockery of the [[Blind Well]] from the [[Dreaming City]]. Unlike the Well, the safe zones shrink over time, and must be revitalised with the balls that are dropped by the Hive [[Wizards]]. Depending on remaining havens, occasionally, a [[Treasured Ogre]] or 2 will spawn to support the besieging Hive. They must be killed to gather points and remove a dangerous enemy from the field. The encounter ends with either all havens faltering, time running out, or the point requirement being reaching.

To complete this encounter, the Guardians must fight off waves of Hive while others search for a [[Cherished Darkblade]]. Once slain, the knights drop their [[Cleaver]]s, which must be used to strip the white immunity shields from [[Tamed Knight]]s, [[Tamed Ogre]]s, and, finally, a [[Treasured Ogre]]. Guardians also should beware of a [[Shrieker]] which occasionally spawns in the center of the arena, which can quickly kill a Guardian.
