{{Main|Battle for Gyre 11}} | |||
After the battle of the Capital, Gyre 11—still under the control of Mendicant Bias—made a slipspace jump to a distant planetary system near the galactic border. The jump was an automated fail-safe measure, intended to place the Halo on a pre-determined collision course with [[Wolf-faced planet|a planet]] in the event it went rogue. Although unable to control the Halo's movements themselves, Mendicant Bias and the Primordial intended to enlist humans and [[Composer]]-processed Forerunner Flood victims to interface with the Halo's controls and reposition the Halo in a way that the planet would pass through it. Mendicant extracted the humans' ancestral memory imprints, claiming it would use the ancient warrior essences as its commanders in the coming campaign against the Forerunners; this was allegedly because the ancilla enjoyed the irony of having humans carry out its vengeance on its creators. However, a portion of this may have been deception engineered by Mendicant and the Primordial to convince the live humans to cooperate with them in saving the Halo.<ref>'''Halo: Primordium''', ''page 313-314''</ref> | After the battle of the Capital, Gyre 11—still under the control of Mendicant Bias—made a slipspace jump to a distant planetary system near the galactic border.
