|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| EDZ-SJC-1 | Yes | European Dead Zone, Sojourner's Camp. | Fallen | Ghost: "I wonder if these supplies fell out of a Fallen skiff. Or a ketch. Fallen names are so ugly. Dreg. Wretch. There are other things besides short vowels and plosives, you know. " | |
| EDZ-SJC-2 | Yes | European Dead Zone, Sojourner's Camp | Fallen | Ghost: "More Fallen Transmission data. I'm... well this is weird. I'm seeing some file headers with Awoken symbology? What was that about?" | |
| EDZ-SJC-3 | Yes | European Dead Zone, Sojourner's Camp | Fallen | Ghost: "The Fallen used to worship the Servitors like gods. I wonder what they think of their machines now that they're down and out in the EDZ?" | |
| EDZ-MS-1 | Yes | [European Dead Zone]], Maevic Square | Fallen | Ghost: "Hmm, Fallen comms. They're using this as a kind of beacon. I guess not everybody in the old Houses got the memo." | |
| EDZ-MS-2 | Yes | European Dead Zone, Maevic Square | Fallen | Ghost: "An empty Fallen cache, hmm. They must be bringing in supplies from all their old hidey holes in order to survive out here. " | |
| EDZ-MS-3 | Yes | European Dead Zone, Maevic Square | Fallen | Ghost: "An arc spear. We thought the House Fallen were bad, but it's hard to imagine a haughty House of Kings guy rushing at us with one of these." | |
| EDZ-TG-1 | Yes | European Dead Zone, The Gulch | Traveler | Ghost: "The power in this tiny piece... its amazing. And to think its been out here this whole time. Just waiting. " | |
| EDZ-TG-2 | Yes | European Dead Zone, The Gulch | Fallen | Ghost: "A prototype, or the runt of the litter? Or are the Archon priests trying out new shell design. " | |
| [EDZ-TG-3 | Yes | European Dead Zone, The Gulch | Cabal | Ghost: "I can see some of the data going through this thing. The Red Legion at the base are talking to soldiers on Mars, Venus, Nessus...they're everywhere." | |
| EDZ-TL-1 | Yes | European Dead Zone, Trostland | Fallen | Ghost: "The Fallen hid this one pretty well. I guess after we beat them up during the SIVA crisis they'd want to give us as wide a berth as possible." | |
| EDZ-TL-2 | Yes | European Dead Zone, Trostland | Fallen | Ghost: "Some intersting data in these things... hmm. I think they came all the way from Venus with the old House of Winter." | |
| EDZ-TL-3 | Yes | European Dead Zone, Trostland | Ghost: The Fallen must have tucked it away in here and forgottena bout it. I'm getting...oh. These supplies were originally from the Tower." | ||
| EDZ-TL-4 | Yes | European Dead Zone, Trostland | Ghost: "This is the House of Judgment. We used to work with a [[Variks|Fallen] who flew this banner." Devrim: "Curious. Well the Fallen seem to have put this up as a bit of a threat. I imagine you'll find lots of objects like this out there with a bit of a story to them." |
||
| EDZ-TL-5 | Yes | European Dead Zone, Trostland | Ghost: "Who knows why these banners are placed anymore? The Fallen Houses held them together for a long time. Now it's just... cloth." | ||
| EDZ-SM-1 | Yes | European Dead Zone, Salt Mine | Fallen | Ghost: "These House banners are rare on the ground these days. Between the Guardians and the Cabal they've buried a lot of the old grudges. All four hands on deck." | |
| EDZ-SM-2 | Yes | European Dead Zone, Salt Mine | Fallen | Ghost: "I'm not detecting any Ether. The Servitors keep the Fallen going with that stuff. bet they took it all before they moved on." | |
| EDZ-SM-3 | Yes | European Dead Zone, Salt Mine | Fallen | Ghost: "They were using this terminal to control the elevator. No wonder it almost crushed us into Guardian and Ghost soup." | |
| EDZ-TS-1 | Yes | European Dead Zone, The Sludge | Ghost: "A power box for an underground security system. I guess it wasn't enough to protect against the Collapse. And the Fallen. And the Hive. And the Taken. And the Red Legion. But i bet it worked pretty well against bears." | ||
| EDZ-TS-2 | Yes | European Dead Zone, The Sludge | Ghost: ""There's still some kind of energy in this Shard, but... different from what we use. I still don't understand how the corruption AND the Traveler's power can coexist so strongly. But I guess there's a lot we don't understand." " | ||
| EDZ-TS-3 | Yes | European Dead Zone, The Sludge | Indeterminate | Ghost: "The emergency light is still working, but the rest of this tech fizzled out a long time ago. I wonder how many people escaped after the Collapse." | |
| EDZ-LA-1 | Yes | European Dead Zone, Legion's Anchor | Cabal | Ghost: The Cabal used to be those cranky jerks out on Mars. Now their warmachine is all over Earth. Someday we'll get them out of the system. Right?" | |
| EDZ-SI-1 | Yes | European Dead Zone, Sunken Isles | Cabal | Ghost: "Hmm, intersting. Some of the trace signatures here match readings from the [[|Psions|Psions]]. Maybe these supplies originated on the Psion homeworld. | |
| EDZ-FH-1 | Yes | European Dead Zone, Firebase Hades | Multiple | Ghost: "Looks like an improvised explosive device set up by the Fallen. They hate the Cabal as much as we do." | |
| EDZ-FH-2 | Yes | European Dead Zone, Firebase Hades | Cabal | Ghost: "Scanning...hmm. I'm picking up trace elements from a half dozen planets on this thing. The Cabal sure do get to travel, don't they?" | |
| EDZ-FH-3 | Yes | European Dead Zone, Firebase Hades | Cabal | Ghost: "Why would you store refuelling information in a remote access point all the way up here? I swear, I will never understand Cabal architecture." | |
| EDZ-FH-4 | Yes | European Dead Zone, Firebase Hades | Fallen | Ghost: "Fallen coms, still trying to reach their brothers and sisters. Some of these headers are still marked with House sigils. House of Devils, House of Wolves..." | |
| EDZ-WC-1 | Yes | European Dead Zone, Winding Cove | Fallen | Ghost: "This antena was used on the Fallen network less than a year ago. It relayed a signal out past Saturn. I wonder if they knew about Nessus before we did?" | |
| EDZ-WC-2 | Yes | European Dead Zone, Winding Cove | Ghost: "I think the Fallen must have taken this from the Farm. Everybody has it bad out in the EDZ." | ||
| EDZ-OS-1 | Yes | European Dead Zone, Outskirts | Fallen | Ghost: "Another Fallen antenna, all the way out here. They're desperate to get everyone they can together. Interesting..." | |
| EDZ-OS-2 | Yes | European Dead Zone, Outskirts | Fallen | Ghost: I've never seen a Servitor this..tiny. I wonder if it was a prototype for old Sepiks? Like, Sepiks Beta. Sepiks Inferior? Anyway..." | |
| EDZ-OS-3 | Yes | European Dead Zone, Outskirts | Multiple | Ghost: "Supplies marked for the House of Judgment...I wonder what happened to Variks. You think the Reef survived the Red Legion?" | |
| EDZ-OS-4 | Yes | European Dead Zone, Outskirts | Fallen | Ghost: "What was that giant Shank made up of Servitor parts called? S.A.B.E.R.-2, right? I wonder if you can make a giant Servitor from a bag of Shank parts." | |
| EDZ-OS-5 | Yes | European Dead Zone, Outskirts | Fallen | Ghost: "I used to think the Fallen worshipped machines, but this doesn't look very worshipful, does it? Maybe they've got bigger worries these days..." | |
| EDZ-TT-1 | No. (Adventure: 'Stop and Go' | European Dead Zone, The Tunnels | Cabal | Ghost: "I think it's a modification for an air filtration system, which is a modification on top of the generator... But the Cabal don't breath our atmosphere, so... why did they build it in the first place?" | [Picture] |

| Yes | Nessus, Pools of Luminance | Vex | Ghost: "There's nothing special about this crystal chard. Well, other than it being buried in a radiolarian vapor cloud that carries the energy readings of six stars. I guess that's pretty special." | [picture] | |

| TF-1 | Yes | The Farm | Traveler | Ghost: "A Shard of the Traveler. I can't find any of why it's here, or how it got here. We're a long way from the City, you know I want to believe it's here for a reason. For us." | [picture] |
| TF-2 | Yes | The Farm | Devrim Kay | Ghost: "Devrim spent years defending the City from places just like this along the Wall. I can see why he found this spot comforting." | [picture] |
| TF-3 | Yes | The Farm | Hawthorne | Ghost: "If Hawthorne hand't been out there in the wilds, on the lookout for people escaping the City... well I'm glad we met her. Who knows where we'd be now?" | [picture] |
| TF-4 | Yes | The Farm | - | Ghost: "Look at this. I've heard some of the civilians talk about settling down out here once the fighting stops. I'm not sure that's such a good idea but... you can't argue with the view" | [picture] |

| TM-TR-1 | Yes | Titan (moon), The Rig | New Pacific Arcology | Ghost: "the idea was that the facility produced zero waste. Everything organic ended up fertilizer, and everything else got used in manufacturing. Grand plans... that didn't pan out. " | [picture] |
| TM-TR-2 | Yes | Titan (moon), The Rig | Fallen | Ghost: "Skolas tried to unite the Fallen Houses but failed. Who would have thought that sheer desperation would succeed where he failed." | [picture] |
| TM-TR-3 | Yes | Titan (moon), The Rig | Hive | Ghost: "Yet another strain of Hive. They're doing an awful lot of testing out here. Trying new things with magic and - ugh - breeding." | [picture] |
| TM-FH-1 | Yes | Titan (moon), Festering Halls | New Pacific Arcology | Ghost: "The Arcology's operating system isnt very smart. Nothing even close to an AI. Lots of entries here, different names. It may not have had a personality, but it made living here better for a lot of people." | [picture] |
| TM-FH-2 | Yes | Titan (moon), Festering Hall | Hive | Ghost: "These Hive spawn pods are different from the ones we saw before. Maybe a different brood. Or a different generation. Gross and confusing." | [picture] |

| TW-C-1 | Yes | Tower, Courtyard. | - | Ghost: "Blueprints for a bunch of modular housing, bridges, some simple shopfronts... I think these are reconstruction plans for City blocks. As bad as the Tower had it, some parts of the City are just...gone." | |
| TW-H-1 | Yes | Tower, Hangar | Dead Orbit | Ghost: "This terminal looks like it's in use as a forum for Dead Orbit folks. About what you'd expect: lots of pictures of people wearing black, and nihilistic poetry." | |
| TW-H-2 | Yes | Tower, Hangar | - | Ghost: "Someone's been trying to modify one of Shaxx's Redjacks! But all the interface history shows is access by other frames. 'Arctie and Dahlia', it says. Over and over. 'Arcite and Dahlia'." | |
| TW-C-2 | Yes | Tower, Courtyard | Speaker | Ghost: "They rebuilt the Speaker's private quarters even after the reconstruction. I still can't believe that he's gone. He wasn't the first Speaker, and...he can't be the last, right? We still need a Speaker. Don't we?" | |
| TW-C-3 | Yes | Tower, Courtyard| | Banshee-44 | Ghost: "The last login of this terminal was by Banshee-44, but... he tried and failed so many logins as Banshee-41 that it locked him out. All those reboots must have finally gotten to him." | |
| TW-B-1 | Yes | Tower, Bazaar | Banshee-44 | Ghost: "I think this is where Banshee used to set up. You know that number after his name isn't for show right? Amanda told me he really has been rebooted 44 times. How can he remember anything at this point? | |
| TW-B-2 | Yes | Tower, Bazaar | Traveler | Ghost: "Things seem like they're back to normal around here. It's like nothing's changed. But with the Traveler AWAKE now, that can't be true. Things are going to get better... right?" | |
| TW-B-3 | Yes | Tower, Bazaar. | - | Ghost: "Look at all these inventory notes. Looks like everyone is trying to get the Tower's market back on track. Tess, Banshee, Rahool, Eva Levante ... they're all working together on this stuff." | |
| Where is Eris Morn? | Yes | Tower | Eris Morn | Ghost: "I think this used to be a terminal used by Eris Morn. Lots of notes in here about the Hive, their Prince Crota. The Taken King, Oryx. (sigh) I wonder where she went off to?" | [picture] |
| TW-C-4 | Yes | Tower | Cabal | Ghost: "Maintenance logs from a systems engineer. She talks about having to do tasks for two people now that her mechanic buddy is gone. Everybody lost someone when the Cabal attacked us." | [picture] |
| Amanda's holiday retreat | Yes | Tower | Amanda Holliday | Ghost: "All this stuff belongs to Amanda Holliday. I think I heard her mention this place once: her 'secret hideaway to get away from all that nonsense in the Hangar'. Let's not tell anyone about it." | [picture] |
| TW-C-5 | Yes | Tower | Hawthorne | Ghost: "Hawthorne told me she comes up here to read sometimes. She's studying up. Vanguard history, the consensus, faction wars, even books about the founding of the City! Huh. I wonder where Louis goes while she's here." | [picture] |
| TW-B-4 | Yes | Tower | Ikora Rey | Ghost: "If I'm reading this right, Ikora is pushing hard for civilians to have easier access to the Tower. It's nice to see... you know. People up and around here." | [picture] |
| TW-B-5 | Yes | Tower | New Monarchy | Ghost: "Hmm. With everyone embracing Hawthorne's 'power to the people' message, maybe they don't have as much patience for factions like New Monarchy" | [picture] |
| TW-H-3 | Yes | Tower | Zavala | Ghost: "Huh. Communications between Amanda Holliday and Commander Zavala. Back and forth and back and forth for weeks, keeping track on shady characters in the Hangar. Nothing gets past Zavala." | [picture] |
| TW-H-4 | Yes | Tower, Hangar | Ana Bray | Ghost: "Looks like a journal: Ana Bray. But I cant tell who - Pretty much the entire thing is redacted. And there are whole pages missing. Something about all this seems... wrong. Am I worrying too much?" | |
| TW-H-5 | Yes | Tower | Dead Orbit | Ghost: "This is weird. Was someone... spying on Arach Jalaal? Some of the papers are signed 'Arach' but it's not Jalaal's handwriting. I don't think i'll ever understand faction politics." | [picture] |
| TW-C-6 | Yes | Tower | New Monarchy | Ghost: "I think someone stole these supplies from New Monarchy! Reference in the logs to 'following Hawthorne's lead'. I wonder what that means." | [picture] |
| No Eva Levante? No shaders. | Yes | Tower | Eva Levante | Ghost: "I keep expecting to show up in the Bazaar and see Eva Levante here. This spot's right around where she used to set up shop. I haven't heard much about her since we reclaimed out home, other than that she survived. No one's heard from her in a while, though." | [picture] |
| Yes | Ghost: " " | [picture] |
