The Black Heart is a fragment of Darkness[1] located in the Black Garden.
Overview
The Black Heart may have arrived in the Black Garden sometime during the Collapse.[2] It is of central importance to the Vex, who worship it as a god, even remaking themselves in its image.[3] In the Garden, the Black heart appears as a massive, floating mass of chaotically fluid with energy emanating from it.[4]When in danger, the Heart summons its vessels the Sol Progeny, to defend itself.[5]The Black Heart was destroyed when the three Sol Progeny were destroyed. Its destruction helped light to return to the Traveler, allowing it to heal.[6]
Following its destruction, Ikora Rey hypothesized that the Black Heart was a being so beyond comprehension that even the Vex saw no logical option other than worship it. However, the abomination was too weak to summon all three Sol Progeny at once, and the fact that it needed to summon them in the first place meant that it was vulnerable. Nonetheless, she asserted it must have been just a portion of a greater power. [7]
Some time after, The Undying Mind attempted to restore the Black Heart by reverting the Garden back to the darkness, but the Guardians were able to stop it before the Mind could complete its task.[8]
During the Taken War, Oryx and his Taken also attempted to reawaken the Black Heart, but was foiled when the Guardian intervened.[9]
