History
Prompted by the Prophet of Truth, Tartarus brought 343 Guilty Spark and Commander Miranda Keyes to the control room in order to activate the ring, initiating the Great Journey. However, before he could force Keyes to activate the panel, the Arbiter arrived, teaming up with Avery Johnson and other Sangheili troops. After trying to convince Tartarus to change his mind, Tartarus instead forced the Index into the panel, activating the primary firing systems. A battle began between the Sangheili and the Jiralhanae, which ended after Tartarus and his troop's died, but Keyes was able to deactivate the ring. It also has a difference between 04's Control Room: this one has three parts, or levels.
