In February [[2553]], Phillips along with [[Captain (Navy)|Captain]] [[Serin Osman]], [[Corporal]] [[Vasily Beloi|Vaz Beloi]] and Admiral Lord [[Terrence Hood]], were the first humans to visit Sanghelios.

During ~~a mission on~~ [[~~Sanghelios~~]], Phillips was shown to be adept at figuring out the Sangheili toy and puzzle, the ''[[arum]]'', a skill which earned him respect from the ~~Sangheili~~.

===Lost on Sanghelios===

In March 2553, Phillips arrived on Sanghelios. He was greeted by the Arbiter in [[Vadam]] and requested a tour of their most ancient cities to which Thel approved. During his stay at [[Ontom]], Phillips was shown to be adept at figuring out the Sangheili toy and puzzle, the ''[[arum]]'', a skill which earned him respect and attention from many Sangheili. As he was solving arums for a crowd of Sangheili, he received a written warning from 'Telcam. Phillips then distracted his assigned bodyguard [[Cadan 'Ilmir]] with a half-finished arum and went to meet with 'Telcam. As 'Telcam and Phillips approached the entrance of the [[Temple of the Abiding Truth]], they were caught in the midst of a bombing orchestrated by [[Jiralhanae]] dissidents. In the wake of the uprising, 'Telcam planned to launch his attack on the state of Vadam. Phillips was taken into the custody of the Servants of Abiding Truth, who permitted him to explore the interior of the stone [[Forerunner]] structure.

~~===Lost on Sanghelios===~~

As Phillips explored the temple, he noted that the micro-camera unit on his shirt, which contained a fragment of the AI [[Black-Box]], had been peppered with shrapnel. The placement of the unit had saved Phillips' life, but the AI fragment inside had taken damage and activated an emergency purge function, wiping important data and higher personality functions from the AI's memory. While the BB fragment was far less useful in this state, Phillips nonetheless was able to use it to aid in translating certain symbols inside the structure. Phillips and the BB fragment eventually found their way to a room with a [[Slipspace translocation|translocation portal]]. Solving an arum-like activation system, Phillips was translocated to the portal's receiving end in [[Acroli]].

~~During~~ Phillips~~' mission to Sanghelios~~, he ~~was caught in~~ the ~~midst~~ of ~~a bombing orchestrated by Jiralhanae dissidents; In~~ the ~~confusion, his bodyguard~~ [[~~Cadan 'Ilmir~~]] ~~lost track~~ of ~~him~~. He was ~~taken into~~ the ~~custody of~~ the [[~~Servants of Abiding Truth~~]], ~~who permitted him~~ to ~~explore~~ the ~~stone Forerunner structure which they had made their base of operations~~.

After being teleported 80 kilometers from Ontom to some Forerunner ruins, Phillips was found by [[grunt]] field laborers [[Dengo]], [[Gikak]], and [[Sensen]]. After a brief conversation, they agreed to take Phillips to their lords at [[Nes'alun Keep]]. On the way to the keep they were attacked by Banshees, one of which killed Sensen.

Phillips was eventually recovered by Kilo-Five and returned to the UNSC safely.
