*Destiny 2* enthusiasts are now exploring the latest Episode, *Heresy*, with excitement buzzing around new *Star Wars* items and engaging activities. Amidst this, a mysterious material called the Curio of the Nine has sparked curiosity among players. So, what exactly does the Curio of the Nine do in *Destiny 2*?

What Is Curio of the Nine in Destiny 2?

As you journey through *Heresy*, the third *Final Shape* release, you'll encounter a variety of new items, including an intriguing material known as the Curio of the Nine. Its description states, "An enigmatic token of favor, containing markings of the Nine." The Nine, enigmatic entities controlling Unknown Space, are deeply connected to this item's lore. However, the game remains cryptic about its purpose, noting only, "The Nine do not wish to reveal the purpose for seeking your favor yet…"

This secrecy has driven players to scour the internet for more information. While this adds a fun layer of mystery for lore enthusiasts, it can be frustrating for those who prefer a clutter-free inventory and want to focus on the game's action.

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

Like other items in *Destiny 2*, the Curio of the Nine can be discarded from your inventory. However, be cautious—once discarded, it cannot be reacquired. The item's description warns, "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 Nine's mysterious nature, it's wise to hold onto the Curio, at least throughout *Heresy*.
