An undetermined amount of time passes within the Garden as it and the Vex within lies patiently in wait for the [[Darkness]] to return power to them both. During then, the inactive Undying Mind became a part of the Black Garden in a barrow of flora growing around it. During the events of "''[[Shadowkeep Campaign|Shadowkeep]]''", however, Darkness returns to the realm in the form of the [[Pyramids]], which have sent an distant pulse throughout the Black Garden waking it yet again. The Undying Mind likewise wakes from its barrow in response as well. [[Goblin]]s write more circuits to weld them to the Mind, building it up to take advantage of the power.<ref name="Realis">'''Bungie (2019/10/09)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: [[Season of the Undying]]'', [[Lore]]:[[Lore:Aspect|Aspect]] - [[Lore:Aspect#Realis|Realis]]''</ref> <ref name="Irrealis">'''Bungie (2019/10/09)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: [[Season of the Undying]]'', [[Lore]]:[[Lore:Aspect|Aspect]] - [[Lore:Aspect#Irrealis|Irrealis]]''</ref>
The Undying Mind re-establishes itself in the Vex network after the destruction of the [[Consecrated Mind, Sol Inherent|Consecrated Mind]] and the deactivation of the [[Sanctified Mind, Sol Inherent|Sanctified Mind]], and directed the [[Sol Divisive]]’s invasion of the moon in an effort to seal entry into the Black Garden. In addition, it established itself across thousands of timelines by creating copies of itself. The Mind was considered unreachable until [[Ikora Rey]] constructed a modified Vex portal from Vex chassis components, allowing the Guardians to draw the Hydra out of the timelines it established and destroy it once again. However, as multiple copies of the Undying Mind existed in the timeways, the Guardians had to pull every single copy one at a time until all were destroyed. With the destruction of every copy, timeways on [[Mercury]] became unstable, prompting the [[Cabal]] [[Red Legion]] to attempt to change the past and retroactively win the [[Red War]].
