History of I. The Hopeful Legion

Overview

I. The Hopeful Legion is a triumph in Destiny 2 that tracks the first lore entry of the book From the Front. The book is told from the side of the Legion rather than from Guardians, and the entry was added in Season of the Chosen (February 2021).

Lore entry

The entry follows several Legion characters:

• Val Ma'rag, a lone Legion soldier holding a remote post against the Hive, who answers a transmission from Empress Caiatl.
• Basilius, who is sent to Europa with his Psions to search for human technology.
• Commander Dracus, who wins a challenge against a young Legionary on Nessus.
• Ixel the Far-Reaching, a Psion who kills her commander and defects.

Other entries in the book

From the Front contains seven entries: I. The Hopeful Legion, II. The Cost of War, III. Amanda Dreams, IV. Guardian Angels, V. The Restless Dead, VI. Vertigo and VII. The Imperial Throne.
