Guided by messages from the [[Anomaly (artifact)|K1 Anomaly]], [[Clovis Bray I]] discovered an artifact or entity on Europa which he called "[[Clarity Control]]", which granted him the ability to combine its power and [[Radiolaria]] to create an ingredient vital to the [[Exo]] project that he dubbed "[[alkahest]]." In doing this, the [[Deep Stone Crypt]] was constructed to facilitate the production of alkahest, processing Vex from the blue hypergiant [[2082 Volantis]].

In doing this, the [[Deep Stone Crypt]] was constructed to facilitate the production of alkahest, processing Vex from the blue hypergiant [[2082 Volantis]]. Following a series of mishaps involving Elisabeth Bray's objections to the project, Clovis sealed his consciousness within the Crypt for eternity. | ||

Later, [[Eris Morn]] and the [[Drifter]], who were contacted by the [[Elisabeth Bray|Exo Stranger]], were seen headed towards Europa to find the very ship. Additionally, [[Eramis, Kell of Darkness|Eramis]] and the [[House of Salvation]] arrived on Europa, acquired stasis from the pyramid and set up a [[Riis-Reborn|city]] there. Soon, [[Phylaks, the Warrior|Phylaks]] had claimed much territory from the Vex and [[Praksis, the Technocrat|Praksis]] was experimenting on them. Fallen built structures can now be found all over Europa. | ||
==Gameplay== | |||
Europa's [[Patrol]] area takes place in the Rathmore Chaos, with all its areas being part of it. There are three main public areas, each with a [[Lost Sector]], and several more Private and [[Mission]] areas. The main landing zone is [[Charon's Crossing]], an enemy-free area where the main location vendor, [[Variks, the Loyal]], is located. Completing the [[Beyond Light Campaign]] allows players to also land in the [[Beyond (Europa)|Beyond]], next to the [[Exo Stranger]], and in the [[Eventide Ruins]]. | |||
The main enemy factions are the [[House of Salvation]] and the [[Sol Collective]], though the [[Red Legion]] and [[Xivu Arath's Horde]] also appear for specific activities. | |||
One of the public areas is designated every week as the Europa Eclipse Zone. In this area, [[Crux of Darkness|Cruxes of Darkness]] will loom over while debris from the destroyed [[Morning Star]] rains from the sky. Players using [[Stasis]] subclasses will find their abilities have greatly increased regeneration in this area. | |||
The planetary resource consists of [[Glacial Starwort]], and players can also acquire [[Herealways]] Pieces throgh various means. | |||

*In [[Rasputin]]'s [[Seraph Bunker|bunkers]] during ''[[Season of the Worthy]]'', the advance of the Pyramids is monitored on a simple star chart, using a dot matrix to represent the system's planets and moons along with the Pyramids themselves. For unknown reasons, likely related to the single Pyramid's presence, Eris and Drifter's arrival on the moon, and interference from Clovis Bray in relation to the Pyramid and Deep Stone Crypt, markings for Europa are visible on this chart, but are not illuminated like the rest of the moons in the system. | *In [[Rasputin]]'s [[Seraph Bunker|bunkers]] during ''[[Season of the Worthy]]'', the advance of the Pyramids is monitored on a simple star chart, using a dot matrix to represent the system's planets and moons along with the Pyramids themselves.
