The initial area of the Infinite Forest, the interior of Mercury's core, contains four tower-like structures with gateways, three of which lead to different time periods within the simulation, and one that leads back to Mercury's surface. The sleek, futuristic tower to the left of the entrance leads to the distant past where Mercury is a lush jungle; the tower directly across the entrance, which is comprised of conventional Vex architecture, leads to iterations of the present; and the crumbling, darkened tower to the right of the entrance leads to the far future, where the Sun is long dead and the Vex have spread everywhere.<ref name="Livestream"/> As Guardians move toward the main towers, they encounter simulated [[Cabal]], [[Fallen]], and [[Hive]], as well as [[Vex]], and must defeat the disguised units called "Daemons" to generate new pathways and advance. The one enemy race that does not appear in simulations are the [[Taken]].<ref name="IF Tour">[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kYQA6m2v1lg YouTube: Destiny 2 Curse of Osiris Live Stream: Infinite Forest Gameplay]</ref> | The initial area of the Infinite Forest, the interior of Mercury's core, contains four tower-like structures with gateways, three of which lead to different time periods within the simulation, and one that leads back to Mercury's surface.

And just like on [[Nessus]], Time moves differently between inside the Infinite Forest and outside.

Within the actual simulations of the past, present, and future, Guardians will continue to encounter simulated enemies from the other races. For example, in one of the infinite variations of reality being analyzed, the far future where the Vex have triumphed over everything may also contain Fallen survivors.<ref name="IF Tour"/> | Within the actual simulations of the past, present, and future, Guardians will continue to encounter simulated enemies from the other races.
