'''Season of the Chosen''' is the thirteenth season of ''[[Destiny 2]]'', currently scheduled to begin on February 9th, 2021 and end on May 11th, 2021. It features the [[Cabal]] proposing an alliance with [[Humanity]] to purge the [[Hive]] from the system.
'''''{{PAGENAME}}''''' was the thirteenth season of ''[[Destiny 2]]'' and the second seasonal content of ''[[Beyond Light]]'', which lasted from February 9th, 2021 to May 11th, 2021.
After their [[Torobatl|homeworld]] fell to the [[Hive]] under [[Xivu Arath, God of War]], the [[Cabal]] under [[Empress Caiatl]] proposed an alliance with [[Commander Zavala]] and the [[Vanguard]] to purge the [[Hive]] from the Sol system, only for tensions to skyrocket as Caiatl demands their fealty and Guardians must engage her champions in ritualistic combat.

Season of the Splicer

 
I'll sharpen my gilded knife, and see you both on the battlefield.

Season of the Chosen was the thirteenth season of Destiny 2 and the second seasonal content of Beyond Light, which lasted from February 9th, 2021 to May 11th, 2021.

After their homeworld fell to the Hive under Xivu Arath, God of War, the Cabal under Empress Caiatl proposed an alliance with Commander Zavala and the Vanguard to purge the Hive from the Sol system, only for tensions to skyrocket as Caiatl demands their fealty and Guardians must engage her champions in ritualistic combat.

Description

Story: The New Empress

"With the Pyramids and Xivu Arath destabilizing the system, Empress Caiatl, leader of the Cabal and daughter of Calus, seeks an alliance. But when she demands Zavala's obedience, negotiations collapse, and Guardians must become the tip of the spear that strikes at her growing war council."

Welcome to the H.E.L.M.

"Designed as the ultimate Vanguard staging ground, the spaceport provides the resources Guardians need to face the most powerful of incursions. Here, the War Table has been set. Meet with Zavala, acquire the Hammer of Proving, and orchestrate an honorable victory."
