{{Article | {{Article Quote|October [[2559]]. With the galaxy in the suffocating grip of a [[Cortana|renegade artificial intelligence]], another perilous threat has quietly emerged in the shadows: the [[Keepers of the One Freedom]], a fanatical and merciless [[Covenant]] [[Covenant remnant|splinter group]], has made its way beyond the borders of the galaxy to an ancient Forerunner installation known as the [[Installation 00|Ark]]. Led by an infamous [[Brute]] named [[Castor]], the Keepers intend to achieve what the Covenant, in all its might, failed to: activate [[Halo]] and take the last steps on the path of the [[Great Journey]] into transcendence… | ||
But unknown to Castor and his new, unexpected ally on the Ark, there are traitors to the cause in their midst—namely the [[Ferrets]], composed of [[Office of Naval Intelligence]] operative [[Veta Lopis]] and her young team of [[Spartan-III]]s, who have been infiltrating the Keepers to lay the groundwork for Castor’s assassination. But with ONI’s field operations now splintered and cut off by the [[Guardian]] threat, Veta’s original mission has suddenly and dramatically escalated in scope. There’s simply no choice or fallback plan—either the Ferrets somehow stop the Keepers or the galaxy faces an extinction-level event….{{Ref/Site|Id=CFParallel|URL=https://www.halowaypoint.com/en-us/news/parallel-threads|Site=Halo Waypoint|Page=Canon Fodder - Parallel Threads|D=25|M=6|Y=2021}}}} | But unknown to Castor and his new, unexpected ally on the Ark, there are traitors to the cause in their midst—namely the [[Ferrets]], composed of [[Office of Naval Intelligence]] operative [[Veta Lopis]] and her young team of [[Spartan-III]]s, who have been infiltrating the Keepers to lay the groundwork for Castor’s assassination.

==Plot synopsis== | ==Plot synopsis== | ||
The story picks up inside a slipspace bubble as we are reintroduced to the story's main character(s). Veta Lopis and the ferrets (Ash, Olivia and Mark) are undercover aboard a Keepers of the one freedom Lich as it makes its way from planet Reach to installation 00, the Ark, to initiate the "great journey" at the behest of the Dokab in charge, Castor. The Keepers of he one freedom's craft makes its way to the Ark as a fierce battle wages just outside the exit portal in orbit around the Ark. The Lich exists slipspace into a barrage of oncoming plasma and artillery courtesy of the Banished and UNSC forces competing for the portal, the only way to and from the area surrounding the Ark. Castor disobeys his Banished leader Atriox by ignoring direct orders and escaping to the Ark. Thus, Castor is now not only attacked by UNSC forces but also the forces of the Banished. Through a very rough and lucky ride after existing the portal, Castor and company narrowly make their way down toward the Ark to initiate the Divine Wind. Along the way down to the Ark's surface the Lich and crew face another issue, the remnants of the fanatic group, the Covenant. Now Castor must face a three front battle against the Banished, UNSC, and former Covenant. Fortunately, Castor ends up making a forced pact to work with the covenant remains toward the common goal of firing the Halo array. | |||
Veta notices that things are going bad for their team and alien company when they are heavily outnumbered and outgunned. When the Lich crashes on the Epsilon spire the remaining crew are surrounded by the former covenant forces and ushered into a pact with their leader, an elite augmented San'shyuum named Dhas Bhavod. Dhas decides to spare their lives once he learns that Castor has two things he needs to activate halo, an oracle (intrepid eye) and human bodies (reclaimers). Once Veta learns of this she attempts to further sabotage their plan by starting a fight among the two groups to slow them down and send a message to the UNSC forces at the Ark (UNSC: Spirit of Fire) for backup or bombardment. The message is later found by banished forces and they attempt to set a trap further down the line. | |||
