Transcript

Jameson Locke stalks through the bombed out ruins of a building. He emerges into the open air in the midst of a large debris field on an unknown Human colony world. Severely damaged skyscrapers still stand in the distance.

  • Locke: "All hail the conquering hero."

He turns toward a pitted and scarred stone statue of Spartan 117 and begins walking toward it. A damaged UNSC Infinity can be seen floating in the sky.

  • Locke: "Let us remember him as a protector and not the one who gave us..."

Locke outstretches his arms to gesture to the devastation surrounding him.

  • Locke: "...This. As our savior, and not our betrayer!"

As he speaks, the point of view briefly switches to Locke's as he looks through his helmet's faceplate.

  • Locke: "Let us see him forever, as you. And not as you."

As Locke says "you" for the first time, he gazes upward at the statue, representing the idealized image of John-117 as the hero and savior of humanity. He then looks down to the figure below the statue; the real Master Chief, lying in the dirt appearing badly injured, armor still sporting a smoldering hole in the chestplate. Locke drops his rifle, and releases the magnetic locks holding his pistol to his armor, which flies into his hand. He points it at the Chief's head.

  • Locke: "All hail the conquering hero; the one who was supposed to save us all! But now I must save us from you."
