Introduction =
Descent Into Darkness is an expanded universe created by Bruh09. Descent Into Darkness covers a range of events spanning from the Forerunner-Precursor war to the Human-Covenant war and far beyond. Descent into Darkness is primarily a collection of articles made by Bruh09, all of which follow the same continuity. 
The main storyline of Descent Into Darkness focuses on a number of characters and organisations across an extended period of time from the onset of the Human-Covenant war to the Invasion of the S'southi, an extra-galactic threat under the control of a series of incomprehensibly ancient Forerunner Ancillae.
