Unlike other Huragok, who normally keep to themselves, Lighter Than Some befriended the [[Unggoy]] [[Deacon]] [[Dadab]] and taught Dadab the Huragok sign language during the voyages of the ''Minor Transgression''. When the Covenant vessel stumbled across the [[human]] [[Freighter]], ''[[Horn of Plenty]],'' and disabled it, Lighter Than Some was able to extract the coordinates of the freighter's point of origin: the human colony Harvest. During the transit to the system, Dadab tried to share a game—in which the Unggoy used a rock to kill scrub grubs—with the Huragok; however, Lighter Than Some found even the extermination of pests immoral.<ref>'''[[Halo: Contact Harvest]]''', ''page 91''</ref> Upon reaching the system, ''Minor Transgression'' raided the ship ''[[This End Up]]'' in search of what the Covenant ship's [[Luminary]] designated as a [[Forerunner]] relic. The "relic", the sole human and pilot of that vessel, [[Henry Gibson]], attempted to repel the boarders, and Lighter Than Some killed him with Dadab's hunting rock just as the human was about to kill Dadab. This event deeply disturbed the pacifist Huragok.

Not long after, ''Minor Transgression'' attempted to raid yet another human ship, the ''[[Walk of Shame]]''. Unfortunately, this was no derelict freighter: this was a trap set by [[ONI]] [[Lieutenant Commander]] [[Jilan al-Cygni]], [[Staff Sergeant]] [[Avery Johnson]], and Staff Sergeant [[Nolan Byrne]]. In the ensuing battle, Lighter Than Some and Dadab evacuated the Covenant ship in an escape pod. Lighter Than Some then risked his life in an effort to preserve Dadab's, due to the Unggoy's need to breathe methane and the Huragok's ability to produce methane as a by-product; however, the process was dangerous and painful for the Huragok. When the ''[[Rapid Conversion]]'' recovered the escape pod, Dadab forced the [[Jiralhanae]] crew to wait on the Huragok to restore itself to a stable state before emerging from the escape pod.
