You have reached the top and can talk to First Sage Esmus.
First Sage Esmus believes the reincarnation of an angaran champion named Zorai may know the location of Havarl's lost monolith. To unlock the memory, you must obtain an heirloom that belonged to Zorai's family. It is lost in an area swarming with Remnant.
Use the gravity well and enter the Remnant Abyss.
Activate the console, turn right, go around to the marker, kill the remnant enemies on your way, a destroyer will be one of them.
Examine Ancient Remains.
Activate the console shown in the picture below, it will open the shorter way to the exit and will allow you to jump onto the top of the pillar in the middle.
There are two loot containers on top of the pillar.
You've obtained Zorai's heirloom. According to Esmus, giving it to Taavos - who carries Zorai's reincarnated soul - may trigger memories of the monolith.
Taavos and the heirloom were reunited, which allowed Taavos to recall the lost monolith's location.
Use the gravity well to go down, and activate the remnant console.
All three of Havarl's monoliths are activated. The broken system must now be restored by resetting and activating the vault.
Activate this console. It will also spawn some hostile mobs.
Notice that there is a rem-tech container in the first room. You can grab it during escape.

As the first you should activate a console with one crystal, then with two, with three, and finally the console with four crystals.
