History of Entry 3: A Hierarchy of Pain

Overview

Entry 3: A Hierarchy of Pain is a Triumph in Destiny 2 for the third entry of the Sintering lore book, added with Destiny 2: Renegades. The narrator grew up neglected by a cold, distant father after their mother's death. They turn to pain and discipline as a path to purpose, drawing on a text about the sermons of Twin Bird. They reject the Light as selfish and see the Darkness as a path to power. They find genuine connection with ordinary people in the City's streets and parks. The entry closes with the narrator suspecting that the Light raises people based on how much suffering its intervention will reveal.

The game data tracks progress toward a count of 6 for this triumph. No reward is attached.

How to complete

1. Play through the Renegades quest. Sources list this quest as the way the first five Sintering entries are obtained, and this entry is one of them.
2. Open Collections and check the Sintering book under the Dusk and Dawn lore category to confirm the entry is listed as unlocked.
3. If it is still locked after the quest, the remaining entries of the book are tied to Lawless Frontier missions and the Fire and Ice exotic mission.
