The '''Descendants''' (or '''Sol Imminent'''), are a group of [[Vex]] reported to have been encountered within the [[Vault of Glass]]. They can be identified by their black and brown-colored frames and ring-shaped heads. <ref>'''Bungie (2014/9/9)''', ''[[Destiny]]: PlayStation 4, Activision Blizzard, [[Grimoire]]: [[Grimoire:Enemies/Vex#Descendants|Descendants]]''</ref>
The '''Descendants''' (also known as the '''Sol Imminent'''), are a [[Vex]] collective spanning from the far future of the [[Vex Network]], having first been encountered within the [[Vault of Glass (location)|Vault of Glass]]. They can be identified by their black and brown-colored frames and ring-shaped heads.<ref>'''Bungie (2014/9/9)''', ''[[Destiny]], [[Grimoire]]: [[Grimoire:Enemies/Vex#Descendants|Descendants]]''</ref>


==Overview==
==History==
According to multiple Ghost analysis, these Vex are extremely old, in that they have been active for an incalculable span of time—indicating that they may very well have come from the future. [[Gorgons]] are also members of this collective.<ref>'''Bungie (2014-9-9)''', ''[[Destiny]]: PlayStation 4, Activision Blizzard, [[Grimoire]]: [[Grimoire:Enemies#Descendants|Descendants]]''</ref>
===Origins===
The exact origins of the Sol Imminent is unknown. However it is often believed that they come from the future. They would eventually come to inhabit the [[Simulant Future]] in the [[Infinite Forest]] on [[Mercury]], the [[Glass Throne]] in the Vault of Glass and the [[Echo Chamber]] on [[Venus]].


Following the death of [[Dominus Ghaul]], they began to gather on [[Mercury]] alongside the [[Precursors]], in order to unite for a mysterious event.<ref>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3Gjl690gN1s</ref>
===Fall of the Great Titan===
After the [[Battle of the Twilight Gap]] and the death of [[Solkis, Kell of Devils]], [[Saint-14]] entered the Infinite Forest to search for [[Osiris]], coming into conflict with the Descendants. Saint-14 would destroy thousands of them. However the division would create [[Agioktis, Martyr Mind]] to drain Saint-14’s [[Light]], they would succeed and bring an end to the great [[Titan (class)|Titan]].


==Notable Members==
===Fall of the Vault of Glass===
*[[Gorgon]]s
Members of the division would later be encountered by a six Guardian fireteam led by [[the Guardian]] in the Glass Throne. They would fail to stop the fireteam and [[Atheon, Time's Conflux]] would be destroyed.
*[[Imminent Mind]]
 
===The Taken War===
When the Guardians entered the [[Black Garden]] to destroy [[The Groundskeeper]], the Descendants would enter the Garden alongside the [[Virgo Prohibition]] in an attempt to defend it. Despite their efforts, they would fail and the Groundskeeper would be destroyed.
 
===Curse of Osiris===
When the Guardian made their way to [[The Lighthouse (Destiny 2)|The Lighthouse]], the Descendants would assault the Guardian in an attempt to stop them. However the Guardian would prevail once more, defeating the Descendant forces and making their way to Brother [[Vance]] of the [[Cult of Osiris]]
 
===Changing Fate===
Shortly after [[The Undying Mind|the Undying Mind's]] destruction, the timeways of Mercury would become unraveled. Osiris would call upon Guardians to preserve time and find a way for Saint-14 to be saved. The Guardian goes back in time to when the Martyr Mind was draining Saint-14's Light. The Descendants battle with the Guardian who becomes trapped by Agioktis, freeing the Great Titan. Agioktis is destroyed and Saint-14 orders the Guardian to return to their own timeline and to open a portal for him. Even with their numbers, the Descendants are defeated by Saint-14, who emerges from the Infinite Forest years later, and returns to the [[Last City]].
