Omega Halo first appeared in the sixth terminal in ''Halo 4''<nowiki>'</nowiki>s campaign. The events depicted in this terminal were later adapted and expanded, (in a highly modified form), in ''Halo: Silentium''. The terminal depicts Omega Halo in orbit around a gas giant with several nearby moons; there are no signs of the battle described in the novel. Another key difference is that the Librarian and a team of Lifeworkers are shown investigating the attack on the human population shortly after its occurrence; the Librarian confronts the Didact via a hologram and rebukes for refusing to speak to her in person.<ref name="Terminal"/> In the book, the Didact leaves as soon as the humans are composed, while the Librarian is focused on getting the remaining humans to the lesser Ark.<ref name="Silentium"/> | Omega Halo first appeared in the sixth terminal in ''Halo 4''<nowiki>'</nowiki>s campaign.

As the Domain is known to alter records with no apparent explanation, it is likely that ''Halo 4''<nowiki>'</nowiki>s interpretation is a condensation or abstraction of the events that actually transpired. | Fictionally, ''Halo 4''<nowiki>'</nowiki>s terminals are depicted as transmissions from within the [[Domain]], whereas ''Silentium'' is presented as legal testimony from several individuals who were present during the battle, most importantly the Librarian, contained within the memory banks of a [[Catalog]] and a [[monitor]].
