The Pyramids are closely associated with the [[Darkness]], and are even sometimes referred to as "the Darkness" themselves.

The Pyramids vary widely in size, ranging from city-sized "flagships" to smaller but nearly identical vessels closer to the size of a [[Fallen]] [[ketch]]. They are accompanied by fleets of smaller entities 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. | |||

A single, seemingly derelict [[Pyramid (Luna)|vessel]] from this fleet was discovered beneath the surface of Earth's Moon in the years following the Red War. It remains unknown how long this vessel was buried on the Moon, although [[Eris Morn]] speculates that it may have been struck down by the Traveler during the Collapse, or left behind intentionally. Its very presence creates [[Nightmare]]s from the Darkness to haunt the Traveler's Light-bearing [[Guardians|Risen]]. | |||
Multiple Pyramids can be seen in the background when the Guardian receives a vision of the [[Black Garden]] from the [[Unknown Artifact]] found within the Pyramid on Luna. | |||
Around the time of the [[The Almighty|Almighty's]] decent upon [[The Last City]], a Pyramid, or perhaps multiple, had reached [[Jupiter]] and were making their way towards the inner system. | |||
