Theory: The Taken were originally the Veil/Fifth Race
This is a crackpot theory I just thought of. Also, keep in mind im high af on Blue Dream, so take this with a grain of salt. I think the Taken were supposed to be the 5th race back in Destiny 1 before the story got changed? Why, lemme tell you.
The Dreadnought is a black, 4-sided ship, whereas the Pyramid ships are 3 sided. Honestly, The Dreadnought and the mini dreadnoughts were probably the original pyramid ships.
As for who would pilot these ships? Easy, the Taken, who were originally supposed to be the Darkness. Think about it, the race that caused the collapse being copies of our enemies, but in a ghostly black? Sounds an awful lot like the Veil to me. Thoughts on this theory would be appreciated.

The Taken as of TTK are something different, and not their original design. The only possible link outside of being told is one bit of concept art, but I'm suspect of that one.>
