Issue #3 has the unidentified human mentioning that 'Gajat is moonlighting, and inquired about [[Jul 'Mdama]] finding out. Also Scruggs denies being a member of the Insurrection, claiming to be something else. To me this sounds like a contract being taken by Covenant/Human mercenaries, not an official involvement by the remnant. Maybe that faction in the infobox should be changed to reflect that.

:I don't see why not. We may still see the offical covenant remnant show up in a later issue but who knows. Also I'm starting to think this mysterious group is non other than the [[Servants of Abiding Truth]] led by [[Avu Med 'Telcam]].

::I can't actually say with any certainty, since I have so far not read much beyond previews, but I have a vague suspicion that this is going to tie into 343i turning ONI into Cerberus - a renegade, well-funded and anti-alien paramilitary organisation that declares itself humanity's benefactor, while using extreme and unethical means behind the UNSC's back. You have ONI funding the decidedly anti-human Servants of Abiding Truth, without which the Covenant remnant probably wouldn't exist, going behind Hood's back to derail his own objectives; the transition from Parangosky to Osman to maintain a degree of philosophic continuity; Osman's decision to assassinate Halsey; and now a second Spartan going rogue, who this time, unlike Ilsa Zane, made it through the screening and augmentation process - either the people screening the candidates are total incompetents (something I'm not willing to rule out :P) or ONI has been sneaking its own operatives into their ranks, and Scruggs was one of them, activated to derail Hood's peace talks. I can only hope that if they do take that route, taking them down is as satisfying as it was putting the last nail into Cerberus's coffin. -- [[User:Morhek|<b><font color=indigo>Qura 'Morhek</font></b>]] [[halofanon:user:Specops306|<u><i><font color=blue><sup>The Autocrat</sup></font></i></u>]] [[User talk:Specops306|<u><i><font color=purple><sup>of Morheka</sup></font></i></u>]] 02:27, 28 February 2014 (EST) | ::I can't actually say with any certainty, since I have so far not read much beyond previews, but I have a vague suspicion that this is going to tie into 343i turning ONI into Cerberus - a renegade, well-funded and anti-alien paramilitary organisation that declares itself humanity's benefactor, while using extreme and unethical means behind the UNSC's back.

:::I'm afraid Palmer wound up [[Sesa 'Refumee|pulling a 'Vadamee]], so to speak. Scruggs was trying to convey the truth about ONI - or so I'm guessing - but Palmer's unquestioning loyalty to the UNSC forbade her from hearing him out. I just wonder what this group is trying to accomplish, since destabilizing the peace summit seems to be playing right into ONI's hands. We know there are at least four humans in their camp, including 1) Scruggs, 2) the real mole, 3) a scientist-looking guy on 'Gajat's bridge, and 4) Mr. Beardface, whom I believe is Edvin Sentzke. On the other hand, maybe Scruggs was working ''for'' ONI and felt compelled to tell Sarah just what he was up to. Anyway, I look forward to see how this plays out. --[[User:Braidenvl|<span style="color:gray">'''''Our vengeance is at hand.'''''</span>]] [[File:Gravemind.svg|14px]] ([[User talk:Braidenvl|<span style="color:gray">Talk to me.</span>]]) 13:01, 28 February 2014 (EST) | :::I'm afraid Palmer wound up [[Sesa 'Refumee|pulling a 'Vadamee]], so to speak.
