Bornstellar is sent to the [[Orion complex]], where he is reunited with his family. On [[Molaetra|their homeworld]], he studies Forerunner history and discovers the Master Builder's plan to gain more power and to diminish the role of the Warrior-Servants — a scheme that has been in motion since conclusion of the Human-Forerunner wars. This plan involves removing the Warrior rate from the [[Ecumene Council]], and a Builder weapon that would make all other weapons obsolete — Halo. Over time, Bornstellar also finds that the Didact's memories and consciousness — gained as a byproduct of his mutation — are slowly gaining more and more prominence within him, with the Didact occasionally making comments and observations in his mind. | Bornstellar is sent to the [[Orion complex]], where he is reunited with his family.

One day, exploring his family's vast [[domicile]], Bornstellar overhears his father and another Builder conversing in secret. It is revealed that the Master Builder activated the Halo ring at Janjur Qom, as punishment for the San'Shyuum rebellion. The Council disapproves of this use, considering Halo installations as weapons of last resort. They also discuss a [[Installation 07|missing Halo ring]] that was tested near Charum Hakkor.

It is revealed that the Master Builder activated the Halo ring at Janjur Qom, as punishment for the San'Shyuum rebellion. The Council disapproves of this use, considering Halo installations as weapons of last resort. They also discuss a [[Installation 07|missing Halo ring]] that was tested near Charum Hakkor. Further complicating this is the fact that a powerful, [[metarch]]-level ancilla went missing with it. The next day, Bornstellar confronts his family with a message from the Didact within. He reveals that he knows of the missing Halo installation, and that it released the creature imprisoned on Charum Hakkor. Bornstellar's father, the designer of the Halo rings, is at first reluctant to discuss the matter, but reveals that Bornstellar has been asked to come to the Forerunner capital to testify against the Master Builder in a trial held for his violation of the Mantle. | ||
Aboard the [[Council ship]] ''[[Seedling Star]]'', Bornstellar meets [[Splendid Dust of Ancient Suns]], a young first-form councilor who instructs him and gives him access to historical records. During the journey to the capital, Bornstellar studies the background of the [[Flood]] and discovers that the parasite was defeated ten thousand years ago thanks to the efforts of the humans, but has now resurfaced in the Forerunners' domain, attacking a number of bordering worlds over the last 300 years. He also learns that following the war with the humans, there was a millennia-long political strife between the Builders and the Prometheans, with the Didact proposing a strategic solution, the building of fortresses known as [[Shield World]]s to monitor and control potential Flood outbreaks. On the other hand, an extreme faction of Builders led by the Master Builder began designing a superweapon which could decimate life on a galactic scale. The Builder faction was victorious and the Prometheans were forced out of the council, with most of them going into exile. | Aboard the [[Council ship]] ''[[Seedling Star]]'', Bornstellar meets [[Splendid Dust of Ancient Suns]], a young first-form councilor who instructs him and gives him access to historical records.
