The rest of the small crew consisted solely of Kig-Yar, led by [[Zhar (Kig-yar)|Zhar]]. | ||

The ''Minor Transgression'' was cruising through space when the [[human]] freighter ''[[Horn of Plenty]]'' dropped out of [[Slipspace]] with a malfunctioned drive nearby. When the freighter detected ''Minor Transgression'', ''Horn of Plenty'' hailed it, hoping it was a [[UNSC]] vessel. Shortly afterward, Chur'R-Yar decided to attack it, using point lasers to destroy external sensors and communication devices. She then used her vessel's umbilical (a machine that burned through a ship's hull and allowed passage between the two vessels) to board ''Horn of Plenty'' and disconnect the main computer from the power grid. While the Kig-Yar raided the freighter's supply of fruits, Dadab retrieved the computer for Lighter Than Some, who was able to recover the freighter's point of origin: [[Harvest]], a human agricultural colony. | The ''Minor Transgression'' was cruising through space when the [[human]] freighter ''[[Horn of Plenty]]'' dropped out of [[Slipspace]] with a malfunctioned drive nearby.

By this time, [[ONI]] suspected the raids were being conducted by [[Insurrectionist]] forces, and laid a trap to engage the raiders, using a "derelict" freighter as bait, with [[Staff Sergeant]]s [[Avery Johnson]] and [[Nolan Byrne]] inside to spring the trap. The ''Minor Transgression'' attacked, determined to claim the relics onboard. Johnson and Byrne killed several of the boarders, and Johnson pursued the few surviving Kig-Yar raiders back onto ''Minor Transgression''. While this battle raged, Dadab and Lighter Than Some repaired the Luminary and transmitted a full account of Harvest's relics to [[High Charity]] and then fled in an escape pod. Gravely injured and knowing her plans for profit (which included taking her ship out of commission for the mating season and raising young of her own) were undone, Chur'R-Yar ignited the methane meant for Unggoy life-support in a final attempt to kill Johnson. The resulting detonation destroyed the ''Minor Transgression''. Dadab and Lighter Than Some were the only survivors of the original crew. | By this time, [[ONI]] suspected the raids were being conducted by [[Insurrectionist]] forces, and laid a trap to engage the raiders, using a "derelict" freighter as bait, with [[Staff Sergeant]]s [[Avery Johnson]] and [[Nolan Byrne]] inside to spring the trap.
