With the release of the *Heresy* Episode in *Destiny 2*, players are not only thrilled about new *Star Wars* items and fresh activities but are also intrigued by a mysterious item known as the Curio of the Nine. As you navigate through this third installment of *The Final Shape* series, you'll encounter various new and returning weapons, but it's the enigmatic Curio of the Nine that's catching everyone's attention. Described as "An enigmatic token of favor, containing markings of the Nine," this item is directly linked to the lore of the Nine, the elusive entities ruling over Unknown Space. However, the purpose of the Curio remains shrouded in mystery, with the item's description hinting, "The Nine do not wish to reveal the purpose for seeking your favor yet…"
This secrecy has led players to scour the internet for answers, appealing to those deeply invested in *Destiny 2*'s rich lore. Yet, for players who prefer a clutter-free inventory and a focus on gameplay, the Curio of the Nine presents a bit of a challenge. So, can you get rid of it?
You can indeed discard the Curio of the Nine, but be warned: once it's gone, it's gone for good. The item's description ominously states, "While this item does not currently appear to have a purpose, guard it with your life – as it cannot be reacquired if discarded." Given the ominous nature of the Nine in *Destiny 2*'s lore, it's probably wise to keep the Curio safe, at least until the end of the *Heresy* Episode.
Speaking of which, *Heresy* kicked off on February 4th, 2025, and like other Episodes, it's structured into three Acts, each lasting several weeks or even over a month. This means *Heresy* is expected to wrap up sometime in the summer of 2025, though an exact end date hasn't been announced yet. It's unlikely to extend into the fall, based on the pattern of previous Episodes.
So, that's the scoop on the Curio of the Nine in *Destiny 2*. If you're eager for more, check out the 2025 Festival of the Lost skins and learn how to vote for them. *Destiny 2* is available to play on PlayStation, Xbox, and PC.
