Line 27: Line 27:
Each of the Pyramids varies in size, but the ones seen currently in the system are near-double the size of a [[Fallen]] [[Ketch]]. They all share a tetrahedral shape, broken up by lines of yellow-orange lights. They are accompanied by fleets of smaller entities known as [[Pyramid Scale|Pyramid Scales]]; about the size of a jumpship, these objects are hexahedrons with floating dagger-like extensions extending from their undersurface and are made of the same chiseled obsidian-like material as the larger Pyramids. Various other polyhedral, jagged artifacts are evident on Europa and various other worlds, such as the [[Cruxes of Darkness]], [[Stasis Locks]] and [[Resonant Splinters]].

It is unclear to what degree the Pyramids can be considered vehicles or fully autonomous machines. Based on [[The Guardian|Guardian]]'s exploration of the [[Pyramid (Luna)|Lunar]], [[Europan Pyramid|Europan]] and [[Sunken Pyramid|Sunken Pyramids]], the Pyramids have interior spaces designed for roughly human-scale inhabitants; the Europan pyramid is also filled with numerous artifacts pointing to its habitation, including what appear to be workstations at which partially-completed statues of colored stone sit unfinished. These statues vaguely resemble humanoid or equine figures, but it is unclear what, if anything, they actually represent. Both pyramids also contain what appear to be urns of various shapes and sizes, either arrayed in open spaces or stored in racks set into walls. Thus far, only one "native" Pyramid inhabitant has been encountered: [[Rhulk, Disciple of the Witness]], who commanded the [[Sunken Pyramid]] in [[Savathûn's Throne World]]. [[The Witness]] has also been shown aboard a Pyramid, presumably the commanding Pyramid of the entire fleet. It is unknown at this point whether all other Pyramids are home to a single Disciple, or whether some contain armies or are empty of life entirely.

Voices have contacted [[The Guardian]] when near the Pyramids on Luna, Io, and Europa; in all cases, these voices have spoken through the Guardian's Ghost. The Ghost refers to the unknown speakers as 'The ones who spoke through me' rather than referencing the Pyramids directly. These voices may belong to the [[The Witness|Witness]] or its [[Disciples]], or are possibly the voices of the Pyramids themselves.
