When O'Brien is brought to the Brute encampment he finds the remaining human captives in a wretched state. One of the captives is a prominent religious figure named [[Dasc Gevadim]] who had hidden away on Beta Gabriel to increase the devotion of his followers, who were led to believe he had transcended. The restless Brutes of Ceretus's hunting party kill one of the captives, [[Hague]], for fun, however when Parabum's hunting party returns he is annoyed and embarasses Ceretus in front of the others. | When O'Brien is brought to the Brute encampment he finds the remaining human captives in a wretched state.

He identifies Parabum and Ceretus (or "Big Boy" and "Six" respectively, as he nicknames them) as the alpha males of the group, and in the event of a confrontation plans to tranquilize them both and in the chaos escape. | As a leading [[UNSC]] expert on Jiralhanae Brien recognizes that if he could somehow exploit the underlying tensions and pit them against each other, he and his fellow captives will have a chance to escape.
