The Veil somewhat resembles a plant or jellyfish, with a bulbous main body, branching root-like tendrils that can rapidly grow and generate a indestructible dome, and a large, brightly glowing white hole underneath. Seen from above, it seems to have a circular "canopy", resembling an energy field decorated with intricate blue and purple patterns. It is located deep underground within a secure [[Ishtar Collective]] building on the edge of [[Neomuna]], and acts as the main power source for the entirety of the city. It was used by [[the Witness]] acting through the Guardian's [[Ghost (Little Light)|Ghost]], which caused the Veil to emit an energy beam that allowed the Witness to open a portal on the surface of the [[Traveler]]. | The Veil somewhat resembles a plant or jellyfish, with a bulbous main body, branching root-like tendrils that can rapidly grow and generate a indestructible dome, and a large, brightly glowing white hole underneath.

The origin and true nature of the Veil remain unclear; it is unknown if it was created by the Traveler or accompanied it when it arrived in the Sol System, and its precise connection to the Traveler has yet to be revealed. Nezarec describes it as the "the sapid secret of the Witness' first victims," suggesting that it may be connected to the Witness' origins.<ref>https://www.reddit.com/r/DestinyLore/comments/11qj6xw/raid_spoilers_the_origins_of_the_veil/</ref> | ==History== | ||

It has long been of interest to the [[Vex]] of the [[Sol Divisive]], who attempted to create a [[Darkness]]-infused facsimile in the [[Black Garden]] - the equally mysterious entity that would later come to be known as the [[Black Heart]]. | |||
===The Collapse=== | |||
During the [[Collapse]], the Disciple of the Witness known as Nezarec led the [[Black Fleet]]'s assault on Earth, and managed to secure the Veil on his [[Pyramid]]. However, he was betrayed by [[Savathûn]], who killed Nezarec, cursed his remains and spirited the Veil away to Neptune. | |||
