Something happened to them out on the edge of the deep Black, and they were forever changed. After their race was formed, they took up residence in in the [[Asteroid Belt]], constructing cities and habitats like the [[Dreaming City (destination)|Dreaming City]]. Today many Awoken live in [[the Reef]], aloof and mysterious, but others returned to [[Earth]], where their descendants now fight for the [[City]]. Earthborn Awoken sometimes venture out to the Reef, hoping to learn its secrets—but find no special welcome from the reclusive [[Queen of the Reef|Queen]].<ref>'''Bungie (2014-6-12)''', ''Destiny: Alpha PlayStation 4, Activision Blizzard, [[Grimoire]]: [[Grimoire:Guardian#Awoken|Awoken]]''</ref> | ||
In ''Forsaken'', it is revealed the Awoken are the descendants of the crew and passengers of the Yang Liwei, a generation ship that left Earth shortly before the Collapse in an attempt to find a way to live without the Traveler, and thus refused to take a side when the [[Darkness]] attacked the Traveler. During the initial sparring between the two acasual entities, the ship was at the centerpiece of an anomaly in space time that sucked it and all its inhabitants into a newborn universe, the [[Distributary]], during which they lost their physical forms and reincarnated into their present ones under the direction of their captain and first queen [[Alis Li]]. Unbeknownst to Alis at the time, she was not the first to regain consciousness, but rather [[Mara Sov]] was, and it was Mara who quietly manipulated Alis into giving the Awoken physical forms that could be injured or die, as Mara believed truly omnipotent entities could not evolve or live meaningful lives. Later, Mara would lead some of her people back into Earth's universe and colonize the Reef, though some of them would go farther and emigrate to Earth itself. | In ''Forsaken'', it is revealed the Awoken are the descendants of the crew and passengers of the Yang Liwei, a generation ship that left Earth shortly before the Collapse in an attempt to find a way to live without the Traveler, and thus refused to take a side when the [[Darkness]] attacked the Traveler.
