On [[Installation 03]], a day before the events of [[Halo: Escalation Issue 8|Issue 8]], [[SPARTAN-II]] [[Black Team]] observes multiple inbound [[slipspace]] signatures. One of the objects crash-lands nearby and the Spartans move to examine it. Lying on the bottom of the impact crater is a giant, unconscious armored figure — unknown to Black, this is the [[Ur-Didact]], who awakens shortly after and brutally kills the Spartans, declaring their presence "unacceptable". Meanwhile, a [[monitor]] appears from the [[Composer's Abyss]], expressing its confusion over why [[Promethean]] constructs are present, and wishes to see the [[049 Abject Testament|Halo's monitor]]. The monitor approaches the Didact — the latter's armor stained in Black Team's [[blood]] — and identifies itself as [[859 Static Carillon]], the caretaker of an installation called the [[Composer's Forge]] and the keeper of the [[Composer]]s. Static Carillon explains that it came to Gamma Halo to investigate the reactivation of a [[Slipspace portal|service portal]]. The Didact then asks the monitor to take him to the Composer's Forge. | On [[Installation 03]], a day before the events of [[Halo: Escalation Issue 8|Issue 8]], [[SPARTAN-II]] [[Black Team]] observes multiple inbound [[slipspace]] signatures.

Blue Team return to the surface of Gamma Halo from the Composer's Abyss, making it just in time as the Didact's newly-obtained Composer rises from the pit. John falls behind while the Didact attacks and prepares to finish off the others. As the Didact is about to execute [[Kelly-087]], the Master Chief sneaks behind the Forerunner and stabs him in the eye with a [[combat knife]]. Intending to correct his mistake of not having killed the Spartan when he had the chance, the Didact grabs John by the helmet, lifts him up in the air and squeezes. | Blue Team return to the surface of Gamma Halo from the Composer's Abyss, making it just in time as the Didact's newly-obtained Composer rises from the pit.
