'''''The Return''''' is the twelfth short story in ''[[Halo: Evolutions - Essential Tales of the Halo Universe]]''. Written by [[Kevin Grace]], this story follows a [[Sangheili]] [[Shipmaster]] as he travels back to the [[human]] colony world [[Kholo]]. This story takes place after the events of ''[[Halo 3]]'' in which the Sangheili are no longer serving the [[San'Shyuum]].
