{{Article | {{Article Quote|December [[2553]]. Less than a year after the end of the [[Human-Covenant War|Covenant War]], a string of violent incidents continues to threaten the tenuous peace in human-held space, culminating in the assassination of UNSC fleet admiral [[Graselyn Tuwa]] and the abduction of her family. It is a provocation so outrageous that the [[Office of Naval Intelligence]] must retaliate swiftly and ferociously—but only after its operatives identify her killer and rescue the hostages. | ||
This mission will be the first for homicide-detective-turned-ONI-operative [[Veta Lopis]] and her [[Ferret|young team]] of [[Spartan-III]]s, and something feels wrong from the start. The obvious suspect is an [[Castor|infamous]] [[Jiralhanae|Brute]] who leads the [[Keepers of the One Freedom]], an ex-[[Covenant]] [[Covenant remnants|splinter group]] in fierce opposition to the UNSC. But Lopis and her team soon realize that the truth is much more insidious than they could ever have imagined, and with [[ | This mission will be the first for homicide-detective-turned-ONI-operative [[Veta Lopis]] and her [[Ferret|young team]] of [[Spartan-III]]s, and something feels wrong from the start.

*''Retribution''<nowiki>'</nowiki>s official summary describes the [[Human-Covenant War]] as "thirty years of '[[Wiktionary:intergalactic|intergalactic]]' conflict". This is an incorrect usage of the term, as the war was never fought in more than one galaxy; a more appropriate word would have been "interstellar", which is defined as occurring between stars. The [[Battle of Installation 00]] was the only battle of the war to be fought outside the galaxy, though not in another galaxy altogether, and the wording in the summary regardless implies the war was waged on an intergalactic scale consistently for its thirty-year duration. | *''Retribution''<nowiki>'</nowiki>s official summary describes the [[Human-Covenant War]] as "thirty years of '[[Wiktionary:intergalactic|intergalactic]]' conflict".
