===The Collapse===
===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 him, cursed his remains and spirited the Veil away to Neptune.
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 aboard his [[Pyramid]]. However, he was betrayed by [[Savathûn]], who killed him, cursed his remains and spirited the Veil away to [[Neptune]]. It is implied that after the Collapse, the Sol Divisive created the Black Heart at the behest of the [[Witness]], as it hoped to use the Black Heart for the same purpose as the Veil. However, the Black Heart was seemingly a failed replica.


===Founding of Neomuna===

The Veil would later play a central role in the founding of [[Neomuna]], serving as the main power source for the city and the basis of its [[CloudArk]] infrastructure. An [[Ishtar Collective]] facility, the [[Irkalla Complex]], was constructed around it to study it and keep it safe. During the early history of Neomuna, an [[Final Warning|atmospheric spectrometer]] was developed which displayed unexpected properties, which [[Maya Sundaresh]] speculated to be a result of the Veil's influence.

The Veil's existence was revealed to [[the Guardian]] by [[Rasputin]] in his final message, stating it resides in a [[Neomuna|hidden Neptunian city]] and that it is of immense [[paracausality|paracausal]] power.

After [[the Witness]] received a vision of the Veil on Neptune, [[Calus]] and his [[Shadow Legion]] invaded Neomuna and attempted to use the [[Radial Mast]] to create a link between the Veil and the Traveler. They were ultimately unsuccessful as the Mast was destroyed, but following Calus' defeat the Witness was able to create the link  by taking control of the Guardian's [[The Ghost|Ghost]]. This caused the Veil to emit an energy beam that allowed the Witness to open a portal on the surface of the [[Traveler]].

[[Asher Mir]] discovered information on the Veil independent of the Guardians and the Witness while traveling through the [[Vex Network]], and devoted an unknown amount of time after the [[Arrival of the Black Fleet]] to researching and manually simulating it. He was able to achieve a full simulation of the Veil [[NODE.OVRD.AVALON|and send the data to Earth]], though doing so cost his life as he was forced to resume his integration into the Vex Network to gain access to the necessary resources.
