+The '''Step of Silence''' is the [[Covenant]] name for a timeframe of unspecified length in the [[Ages of Reclamation|9th Age of Reclamation]], corresponding to somewhere around [[2552#September|September-October 2552]] in the [[Military Calendar|UNSC Military Calendar]].<ref>'''[[Halo: First Strike]]''', ''page 338''</ref>{{Ref/Note|Although previously assumed by fans to be the name of a location within ''High Charity'', this is not so. In a manner consistent with the other chapter headings, the placement of the phrase "Step of Silence" in the heading for the ''Epilogue'' of ''Halo: First Strike'' indicates that it is part of the time stamp, being separated from the location by a backslash. The location the chapter is set in is consistently stated to be the Sanctum of the Hierarchs in both the heading and the rest of the epilogue itself.}}
-The '''Step of Silence''' is a massive chamber inside the [[Sanctum of the Hierarchs]] of ''[[High Charity]]'' specially designated for the [[High Prophets]]. The Step of Silence is a large, round room with an illuminated pedestal in the center. Suspended from the ceiling are hundreds of shards of glass, each a piece of a planet that has been [[Glassing|glassed]] by the Covenant. On the perimeter of the room, there is space for three hundred [[Honor Guard]] [[Elites]], should a [[Prophet]] be present.
+During the Step of Silence, the [[Prophet of Truth]] discussed the [[Operation: FIRST STRIKE|loss]] of the ''[[Unyielding Hierophant]]'', as well as the failure of [[Thel 'Vadam]]ee at [[Installation 04|Halo]] with [[Tartarus]] in ''[[High Charity]]''<nowiki>'</nowiki>s [[Sanctum of the Hierarchs]].<ref>'''Halo: First Strike''', ''pages 338-340''</ref>
-The first time the [[High Prophet of Truth]] and [[Tartarus]] are ever mentioned in the [[Halo]] universe is when they are in the Step of Silence, which is the last chapter of [[Halo: First Strike]]. They discuss the events of [[Installation 04]], as well as the fate of the future [[Arbiter]] and [[Operation: FIRST STRIKE]].
