Though much of Mercury is dominated by the Vex, others have managed to visit the planet, including the [[Cult of Osiris]] who maintains a camp there in the form of [[The Lighthouse]].

When Saint-14 tried to track Osiris on Mercury, Osiris's trail led him to getting lost in the virtual expanse of the Infinite Forest. The Titan faced the Vex for several centuries, destroying thousands of them. Eventually, the Vex created an Axis Mind created specifically to drain his Light. Though he destroyed the Mind, it succeeded in its mission by mortally wounding the legendary Titan and draining his Light. Out of respect, the Vex laid Saint's body to rest in a tomb in a Simulant Future guarded by Hagios, Reverent Mind (Hagios meaning Saint) and surrounded by the melted shells of all the Vex he killed as a memorial to the grief he gave them. | |||
