History of CHAPTER 3: ASSASSIN

Overview

CHAPTER 3: ASSASSIN is a Lore book entry in the "Empress" book, which follows Empress Caiatl from childhood through the fall of Torobatl and the Cabal's exile. It was added in Season of the Chosen. This chapter (Assassin): Caiatl survives an assassination attempt and declares war against her father.

How to complete

The page's in-game description and objectives are empty, so there is no tracked objective to read. Per Destinypedia and TheGamer, Empress lore entries are acquired by progressing the weekly "Contender's Ascent" seasonal challenges (parts I-VII), which are unlocked by finishing the Season of the Chosen narrative. In practice:

1. Finish the Season of the Chosen story quests first.
2. Each week, complete the next Contender's Ascent seasonal challenge (weapon-specific eliminations); each also grants War Table reputation and seasonal weapon rewards.
3. Read the new entry in the Empress Lore book after each completion.

The entry before this one is CHAPTER 2: STAR PILOT.

Unconfirmed: which exact challenge week unlocks this specific chapter was not stated in the sources opened, and this was a season-limited challenge line, so it may no longer be obtainable the same way.
