Through his spy within [[UNSC Fleet Command]], Garvin learned of the [[Covenant]] [[Human-Covenant War|threat]] to the [[Outer Colonies]]. Garvin hoped to unite the fragmented rebel cells into a coalition under the United Rebel Front. On [[2526#March|March 12, 2526]], Garvin had summoned the leaders and envoys of various rebel cells to convene in the [[Little Nelek Nebula]] in the [[Grenadi sector]], hosted by [[Lyrenne Castilla]] aboard ''[[Bellicose]]''. Garvin informed the rebels of the Covenant invasion and the empire's vastly superior technology. Over the course of the meeting, the envoys agreed to attempt a truce with the Covenant, providing the empire with intelligence on the UNSC in exchange for their worlds being spared.{{Ref/Reuse|ss6}} Garvin dispatched a messenger on [[Amasa]] to intercept Covenant scouts, providing them with a [[Holography|holographic]] message and the offer of an alliance; the message was received by [[Nizat 'Kvarosee]], [[fleetmaster]] of the [[Fleet of Inexorable Obedience]].

Garvin warned the Covenant that the UNSC intended to use [[Spartan-IIs]] to wipe out 'Kvarosee's fleet at [[Biko]], the colony the fleetmaster planned to attack next. He offered to provide the Covenant more information if they dispatched an envoy to [[Seoba]], the third moon of Biko. In response, 'Kvarosee had [[First Blade]] [[Tel 'Szatulai]] assemble a ''[[kai'd]]'' and meet Garvin at Seoba to learn more about the Spartans.{{Ref/Novel|Id=ss9|HSS|Chapter=9}} | ||
Garvin's plan did not go as anticipated, as the UNSC had also intended to use Seoba as a base of operations while they waited for the Covenant's arrival at Biko. With the [[Biko Independence Army]] attempting to wrest control of Biko, the UNSC | Garvin's plan did not go as anticipated, as the UNSC had also intended to use Seoba as a base of operations while they waited for the Covenant's arrival at Biko. With the [[Biko Independence Army]] attempting to wrest control of Biko, the UNSC launched [[Operation: ICE DANCE]] and soundly defeated the rebel coalition at Seoba.{{Ref/Novel|Id=ss7|HSS|Chapter=7}} Three hundred rebels were captured in the battle, General Garvin among them. Meanwhile, the Covenant arrived in the system, forcing the UNSC to act quickly to secure the world. As the captured rebels were being herded aboard the {{Class|Banta|transport}} ''[[Emmeline]]'', Garvin was identified by the Spartan-II supersoldier [[John-117]]. While the rest of the rebels were to be sent to Biko to be tried by [[Biko colonial authority|colonial authority]], Garvin was to be held back by ONI for interrogation. However, 'Szatulai's forces attacked and downed a [[prowler]]. With securing the prowler taking priority, John allowed Garvin to board ''Emmeline'', though feared the colonial authority may execute him before ONI could retrieve the general.{{Ref/Reuse|ss13}} | ||
As the [[Battle of Biko]] began, ''Emmeline'' was intercepted by 'Szatulai over Seoba. As 'Szatulai boarded the transport, [[Erland Booth]] of the Biko Independence Army activated a captured [[HAVOK tactical nuclear weapon|HAVOK nuke]] and threatened to destroy the ship unless 'Szatulai called off the attack. Instead, the first blade simply killed the human and allowed Garvin to deactivate the nuke. In order to tempt the Covenant into an alliance, he allowed the Silent Shadow operative to keep the nuclear weapon. He also offered the schematics on the [[MJOLNIR Mark IV]], along with future advice needed to anticipate the next actions of the Spartans. Seeking further intelligence on the Spartans, 'Szatulai agreed to work with the rebels, taking [[Petora Zoyas]] with him to serve as a point of contact.{{Ref/Novel|Id=ss18|HSS|Chapter=18}} | |||
