The Infinite Forest is a location accessible through a gateway in the Fields of Glass, Mercury. It is a virtual simulation of the universe which the Vex created to plan their actions in reality. The Vex hollowed out Mercury's core and in its place built the mechanism that generates the Forest.[1] It is overseen by Panoptes, Infinite Mind.
Overview
The initial area of the Infinite Forest, the interior of Mercury's core, contains three tower-like structures with gateways that lead to different time periods within the simulation. The sleek, futuristic tower on the left leads to the distant past where Mercury is a lush jungle; the central tower comprised of conventional Vex architecture leads to iterations of the present; and the crumbling, darkened tower on the right leads to the far future, where the Sun is long dead and the Vex have spread everywhere.[1] As Guardians move toward the main towers, they encounter simulated Cabal, Fallen, and Hive, and must defeat the disguised units called "Daemons" to generate new pathways and advance.[2]
Within the actual simulations of the past, present, and future, Guardians will continue to encounter simulated enemies from the other races. For example, in one of the infinite variations of reality being analyzed, the far future where the Vex have triumphed over everything may also contain Fallen survivors.[2]
History
The construction of the Infinite Forest began during the Golden Age, while Mercury was still a garden world and the Vex had only recently arrived. The algorithm used to generate the Forest was housed within the Gardener's Spire, overseen by Dendron, Root Mind. Panoptes, Infinite Mind was tasked with managing and interpreting the Infinite Forest's simulations to inform the Vex's strategies in the "real" universe.
