Taking place during an [[Season of the Undying|invasion]] of the [[Sol Divisive]] [[Vex]], the Guardians are tasked by [[Eris Morn]] to track a signal from the [[Unknown Artifact]], emitting from deep within the [[Black Garden]]. The raid features Guardians as they trace the signal to its [[Darkness#Veiled Figures|source]] at the center of the garden, all while battle an onslaught of Vex climaxing with the [[Consecrated Mind, Sol Inherent|Sol]] [[Sanctified Mind, Sol Inherent|Inherent]] Minds.  
When [[Vex]] from the [[Sol Divisive]] are [[Season of the Undying|drawn]] to the awakened [[The Lunar Pyramid|Pyramid]] beneath the [[Moon]], [[Eris Morn]] tracks a mysterious signal with the [[Unknown Artifact]] emitting from deep within the [[Black Garden]]. Now [[Guardians]] must enter the birthplace of the Vex as they trace the signal to its [[Darkness#Veiled Figures|source]] at the center of the garden, uncover [[Pyramid Scale|remnants]] of the [[Black Fleet]] and defeat the [[Consecrated Mind, Sol Inherent|Vex]] [[Sanctified Mind, Sol Inherent|Minds]] empowered by them.

Players will enter an arena containing an [[Ultra]] [[Harpy]] named the [[Consecrated Mind, Sol Inherent]]. However the boss will not initially attack; to start the encounter, look for a [[Vex]] box floating in the air. The box can spawn randomly in several different spots around the arena upon entering. If you fire at the box, it will project a tether to the nearest player. The tether can chain to multiple Guardians near each other. The goal is to lead the tether chain to a barrier at the back right-hand corner of the arena to get it to open. Once this is done, the Consecrated Mind will become active.

Players must split into two teams of three: one stays behind in the same area as the boss, and the other moves into the next area that was beyond the barrier. The first team must kill multiple waves of enemies while the boss roams around, occasionally firing at players. The Consecrated Mind is completely invulnerable to all damage during this phase. After some time the boss will spit a Voltaic Charge onto the ground, and one of the three team members must run over to it. The charge will resemble a Vex [[Conflux]]. Once they have done this, they will be afflicted with the ‘Voltaic Overflow’ debuff, lasting for two minutes and thirty seconds. If one player collects multiple Overflow debuffs, they will die, so it must be split evenly between the three team members. If nobody interacts with a Voltaic Charge to acquire the debuff in time, it will explode, wiping out the entire fireteam.

The other team, the one that proceeded into the next room, must make their way forward through several waves of enemies, including [[Champion]]s. Players must kill every single enemy in their way to progress. At the end of the room, there will be another barrier, and a unique [[Hydra]] called an [[Angelic]] will spawn. Destroy it to spawn another tether box, and guide the tether to the barrier to unlock it. Once this is done, the Consecrated Mind will teleport into the room where the team that killed the Angelic was in, and the two teams must swap roles; one stays behind to collect the Voltaic Overflow, the other moves forward. This process is repeated several times with alternating roles before all six players finally reunite at the penultimate room for this encounter.

The fireteam will arrive into a large diamond-shaped map, with a relay at each corner of the map. These relays contain Vex confluxes in the center, as well as [[Warp Gate]]s on either side. Close to each conflux is also a tether box, however normally they will be shielded. At the start of the encounter, Angelics will spawn near the relays. Players must destroy them to lower the shields around the boxes so they can shoot the box to activate the tether, then guide the tether to the conflux, which will give them the ‘Enlightenment’ buff for forty-five seconds. The Warp Gates will only activate when the tether has been guided to the conflux.

The objective will be to defend each of the confluxes from waves of Vex. They will head for the confluxes in order to sacrifice themselves to them. If enough sacrifices are made, the entire fireteam will be wiped. The Enlightenment buff is essential for this encounter; The Vex will spawn with immunity shields, and only buffed players will be able to break through them and kill the Vex. The buff must be constantly reapplied to get through this encounter.

For the final boss of the raid, players will be split into three teams of two. Two teams will collect motes and one team will stay behind. There are two [[Vex]] confluxes or "banks", one blue and one red. An [[Angelic]] will spawn, which must be killed. Once this is done, the first team will either shoot the Mind's left shoulder which will drop a teleportation portal to go to the Red zone, or its right knee to go to the Blue zone.

Once this is done, the first team will either shoot the Mind's left shoulder, dropping a teleportation portal to the Red zone, or its right knee to go to the Blue zone.
Once they jumped in either portals, players must kill [[Goblin]]s, [[Harpy]]s and a [[Minotaur]] in order to get 15 Voltaic Motes (Tainted Voltaic Motes in the Red zone) in total, with a maximum of 10 per player. Once they have collected all Motes, they must call out to the players left behind who will shoot the same area of the [[Sanctified Mind, Sol Inherent]] that was used to drop the portal, so right knee for Blue, left shoulder for Red. This will teleport the two collectors back at the start point of the encounter, and they will need to bank their Motes at the appropriate conflux (blue on the left, red on the right).

This will give both players the Enlightenment buff, which must be used to prevent Vex from sacrificing to both confluxes.

As soon as the first collector team comes back, the second team must depart for the same zone from which the first team came from and repeat the process. When the second team comes back, the first team will teleport to the other zone, collect Motes, bank and protect the confluxes while the second team goes to same the zone and does the same.

When the second team banks for the second time, both banks should be full and the Sanctified Mind will make a big cross appear and spawn an [[Angelic]] which must be killed. Once the [[Angelic]] is dead, three or four players (four recommended for comfort) will need to start a tether chain of the same color as the boss's cross, starting at one of the banks and linking to the cross. The Sanctified Mind's core will then be vulnerable, and the damage phase will be started. It is advised to have at least one player of each class : a [[Titan (class)|Titan]] to use their [[Ward of Dawn]] for protection, a [[Warlock]] with the [[Well of Radiance]] for healing and damage buff, and a [[Hunter]] who will use bottom tree [[Golden Gun]] combined with the [[Celestial Nighthawk]] for immense damage. Precision damage weapons, like Linear Fusion Rifles, are preferred for damaging the boss, due to the great distance between the boss and the fireteam, and the prominent critical weak point.

Once the damage phase is over, players will need to repeat the whole process again. It is worth noting that [[Cyclops]] will spawn on pillars and can one-shot a player with their powerful [[Void]] attack, so it is highly suggested to kill them as soon as they are spotted.

==The Divinity Sidequest==
==The Divinity Sidequest==
The Divinity Sidequest is initiated by defeating an Ultra Minotaur that spawns from the same portal used to enter the Black Garden during Moon Patrol. The portal is located on the Lunar Battlegrounds, to the right of the gateway leading to Sorrow's Harbor. When re-entering the Lunar Battlegrounds from Sorrow's Harbor, players can find the cavern by taking an immediate left and following the wall until they reach it. Upon entering the cavern, the portal to the Black Garden will activate, and after several waves of Vex are defeated, the Ultra Minotaur players must kill will spawn. Upon defeat, the Ultra Minotaur will drop the quest to obtain Divinity, titled "What's This...What's This?"
The Divinity Sidequest is initiated by defeating [[Zeteon, Redemptive Mind]] at the Black Garden portal in the [[Lunar Battlegrounds]]. The portal can be found by heading to the right of the gateway leading to [[Sorrow's Harbor]] and entering a cavern: Once the portal is in sight it will activate, sending out several waves of Vex. Eventually, Zeteon will exit, and defeating the Redemptive Mind will grant the players the [[Quest]] "Divine Fragmentations"


Players must locate and scan the data nodes in hidden rooms within the following Lost Sectors on Nessus; The Orrery, The Conflux, and Ancient's Haunt. Next, players must collect 120 Decryption Fragments and 30 Phantasmal Fragments.

After entering the portal on the Moon during the Garden of Salvation Raid, players must turn around and jump off the platform they are standing to reach the secret tunnel under the Raid entrance. This room will have a receiver for the Empowered Decryption Core. Players must scan the node to initiate the first puzzle. Doing so will prompt a the message "INITIATED: Security Bypass protocol."
