As '''Princess Imperial''' of the [[Cabal Empire]], [[Caiatl]] resided within the royal court of [[Torobatl]] and grew tired of sorting out the tedious requests from her generals and courtiers who aspired for her attention and resources. One day a general entered her court to complain about a stench emanating from the room of [[Umun'arath]] as the toxic flumes spread throughout the east wing of the palace to choke his lovers. | As '''Princess Imperial''' of the [[Cabal Empire]], [[Caiatl]] resided within the royal court of [[Torobatl]] and grew tired of sorting out the tedious requests from her generals and courtiers who aspired for her attention and resources.

In the corner of the room, she found a Hive [[Thrall]] held in suspension with restraints used on prison captives. | ||
Caiatl questioned her '''Evocate-General''' to what was happening and Umun paused her study of a book bound with flesh and turned away from her war table to showcase the future of the Cabal. She explained that the [[Hive]] do not fear death or pain to which Caiatl responded by saying soldiers who do not know pain or death are useless as the knowledge to defy death inspired bravery within their soldiers. Umun dismissed her old teachings and claimed they must move beyond their customs and embrace a new way as the universe grew smaller through fierce competition and accept new gods or perish. After a long silence, Caiatl grew concerned over Umun'arath's actions and ordered her to step down from the [[War Council|council]].<ref>'''Bungie (2021/2/9)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: [[Season of the Chosen]], PlayStation 4, [[Lore]]: [[Lore:Empress#CHAPTER_4:_SOLDIERS|Chapter 4: Soldiers]]''</ref> | Caiatl questioned her '''Evocate-General''' to what was happening and Umun paused her study of a book bound with flesh and turned away from her war table to showcase the future of the Cabal.
