===Losing her home===

In [[2552]], Kwan and her friends snuck out of her father's outpost and into the nearby woods where Kwan found them some nuts that could be used to make drugs. Kwan became distracted by flashing lights nearby coming from a cave system with a [[Covenant]] [[Type-52 Phantom|Phantom]] parked on top. Kwan tried to warn her friends, but they came under attack by [[Sangheili]] and only Kwan survived. Fleeing, Kwan fired a flare to warn the outpost that they were under [[Attack on Madrigal|attack]].

Kwan became distracted by flashing lights nearby coming from a cave system with a [[Covenant]] [[Type-52 Phantom|Phantom]] parked on top. Kwan tried to warn her friends, but they came under attack by [[Sangheili]] and only Kwan survived. Fleeing, Kwan fired a flare to warn the outpost that they were under [[Attack on Madrigal|attack]].{{Ref/Reuse|Contact}}

Kwan managed to return to the outpost where her father dismissed her claims that the attackers weren't UNSC and had Kwan hide with the other children against her will. As the Covenant attacked, Kwan secretly climbed out of the bunker, worried about her family and friends, narrowly avoiding a Sangheili that found and slaughtered everyone inside. The [[SPARTAN-II program|Spartans]] of [[Silver Team]] arrived, but to the surprise of Kwan and the Insurrectionist defenders, the Spartans joined forces with them in fighting against the Covenant. Making her way through the battlefield, Kwan narrowly escaped death several times, including once when [[Kai-125]] sniped a Sangheili that had her cornered. The Spartans managed to eliminate the Covenant attackers, but only Kwan and her father survived. A surviving [[Sangheili Major]] attempted to kill Kwan, but her father rushed to her rescue and was killed before [[John-117/Silver|John-117]] took the Sangheili out.

In the aftermath, Kwan followed the Spartans back to the cave system where the Covenant had parked their ship. A surviving [[active camouflage|cloaked]] Sangheili rushed out, throwing Kwan to the ground and knocking her out, but leaving the girl with only minor injuries.{{Ref/Reuse|Contact}}

===Meeting John-117===

After sending the other Spartans back to [[Reach]] in the Covenant Phantom, [[John-117]] recovered a [[Forerunner]] [[Madrigal Forerunner artifact|artifact]] that the Covenant had been after and took it and the unconscious Kwan Ha with him aboard his team's [[Condor 325|Condor]]. When Kwan woke up, [[Miranda Keyes/Silver|Miranda Keyes]] spoke to her through a hologram and attempted to enlist the girl's help in promoting the Spartans across the galaxy. Grieving and angry at the timing, Kwan refused to help and instead threatened to spread disinformation and help to further discredit the program across the colonies.

Eventually, John joined Kwan and even fed her, but he evaded her questions about his running diagnostics on his suit, the Forerunner artifact and his refusal to remove his helmet. Kwan eventually revealed that she had met him before when John had killed her mother and she gave him her side of the story, pointing out the inconsistencies in the UNSC's reasoning for the assassination. John received an order from UNSC command ordering him to assassinate Kwan whom they had determined to be a risk, but he instead cut his ship's camera feed and went rogue. In response, the oxygen to the ship was cut and the oxygen in John's suit was lowered so as to render him unconscious. Despite this, John managed to remain awake and override the air flow controls, restoring oxygen to the ship. [[Vice Admiral]] [[Margaret Parangosky/Silver|Margaret Parangosky]] ordered a full squadron of Marines and Pelicans to meet the approaching Condor and for Kwan to be shot on sight and John to be shot too if he tried to stop them.

When Kwan awakened, she believed that John had attempted to kill her despite his protests and grabbed his battle rifle. Telling her that the bullets wouldn't even penetrate the outer plating of his armor, John removed his helmet to talk to Kwan face to face and convinced Kwan of his sincerity, admitting that he didn't know why he was going rogue and helping her. Allowing Kwan to keep his rifle, John enlisted her help to disable the ship's AI autopilot with Kwan resorting to shooting out the controls when she couldn't get them disconnected. However, the UNSC hit the Condor with an [[electromagnetic pulse]], sending it crashing the rest of the short way to the ground and briefly knocking Kwan out again. As the Marines prepared to breach the ship, John touched the alien artifact, causing it to light up with symbols and send out a pulse that knocked out power to the base and restored power to the Condor, much to John and Kwan's surprise. With power restored and the autopilot disabled, John and Kwan quickly strapped in and fled from Reach before the UNSC could fully recover.{{Ref/Reuse|Contact}}
