Currently, the Vex maintain active forces across multiple worlds in the Solar System, including [[Mercury]], [[Venus]], and [[Mars]], and it is thought that their structures are buried within every known celestial body and linked together in a massive trans-dimensional and trans-temporal network.

On Mars, the Vex (under the [[Virgo Prohibition]]) wage an intense war with the [[Cabal]], who manage to repel the machines despite the vast numbers of them that continually assault Cabal positions.<ref | On Mars, the Vex (under the [[Virgo Prohibition]]) wage an intense war with the [[Cabal]], who manage to repel the machines despite the vast numbers of them that continually assault Cabal positions.<ref>[[Grimoire/Enemies/Vex#Virgo_Prohibition]]</ref> The reason for this massive, if ineffective, offensive against the Cabal is that the Vex are surging to protect the [[Black Garden]],<ref>[http://www.destinydb.com/activities/1587374275-a-rising-tide '''Destinydb''': ''A Rising Tide'']</ref> their birthplace, which the Vex are being summoned to for an unknown purpose. Guardians who manage to break into the Black Garden discover that the Vex in fact worship an entity within the Garden known as the [[Black Heart]], an abomination that lends power to the Vex.<ref name = "Destiny"/> Even after the destruction of the Sol Progeny and the Black Heart, the Vex seek to control the Black Garden and pull it back out of space and time. Besides the Black Heart, the Vex may have another connection with the Darkness; [[Osiris]] speculated that Vex technology such as [[the Timekeeper]] are designed to activate in the presence of the Darkness.<ref>'''Bungie (2014-9-9)''', ''Destiny, PlayStation 4, Activision Blizzard, [[Grimoire]]: [[Grimoire/Activities#Timekeeper|Timekeeper]]''</ref> | ||
