What Is Curio of the Nine in Destiny 2?

As you explore the narrative of *Heresy*, you'll encounter a variety of new and returning weapons, along with a mysterious item called the Curio of the Nine. This item, described as "An enigmatic token of favor, containing markings of the Nine," is linked to the enigmatic beings known as the Nine, who reign over Unknown Space. However, the purpose of the Curio remains shrouded in mystery, as the item's description in the inventory cryptically states, "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, delighting lore enthusiasts while frustrating those who prefer a tidy inventory and a focus on gameplay. The Curio of the Nine adds an intriguing layer to the *Destiny 2* experience, prompting players to speculate about its role in future updates.

Can You Get Rid of Curio of the Nine in Destiny 2?

Like many items in *Destiny 2*, the Curio of the Nine can be discarded from your inventory. However, be warned: once discarded, it cannot be reclaimed. The item's description emphasizes this, stating, "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 mysterious nature of the Nine, it's wise to keep the Curio of the Nine, at least until the end of *Heresy*, to see if its purpose becomes clear.
