The Pyramid is the final story mission of Control's first expansion, The Foundation. It is automatically obtained, together with the Astral Entities Collectible, shortly after completing the preceding mission, The Nail.
Overview[]
- Mission start
- Upon completing the final ritual, the Astral Plane begins to collapse. The Board is not answering and Jesse is trapped. A Crystal appears, creating a bridge that Jesse uses to escape back into the Foundation.
- Spoken to Pope
- Jesse talks with a concerned Pope at the Crossroads. The Nail is now repaired, but the Astral Bleed has accelerated. Jesse takes action, despite Pope's warnings.
- At the bottom of the Nail
- Jesse leaps into the pit at the Nail's base, only to discover that the Nail extends far deeper than she knew. A Marshall presence reveals that she was the one who destroyed the Nail, in an attempt to prevent the Hiss from corrupting it. Eventually, Jesse finds the true base of the Nail and Marshall, both of which have been corrupted by the Hiss.
- The Nail cleansed
- Jesse defeats Marshall and cleanses the Nail. The Board returns, thanking her for restoring the Nail and stabilizing the Foundation.
- Mission end
- Jesse makes her way back up to the Crossroads, pleased that she once again helped her Bureau avert disaster, but still unclear on what the Board's true intentions are. She is wary, still mulling on this new perspective.
