Although the Witness and its Pyramid Fleet arrived in our Solar System and entered Earth's orbit in the Destiny 2: Lightfall campaign, the sudden importance placed on an object called the Veil meant the fight instead took place in a futuristic city on Neptune. Lightfall has received criticism for its vague storytelling; despite nearing the end of the Light and Darkness saga, it left the Veil, the Witness's motives, and the metaphysical kaleidoscope portal on the Traveler shrouded in mystery.

Bungie took the unusual step of promising more details on the Veil will be revealed as part of a mission during Season of Deep that will be available to all Lightfall owners, but for now, we're left with many questions. However, several other story threads found through post-campaign quests provide further context and interesting new story threads. Here are some key details we've learned after wrapping up Lightfall's campaign.

The Vex Network has its secrets

Players last ventured into the Vex Network with the help of Misraaks during Season of the Splicer to end the Endless Night in the Last City. Now, we once again hop into the Vex Network because of its connection to the CloudArk, which holds together Neomuna and where the Neomuni have uploaded their consciousnesses while in a cryogenic state.
