As Phillips explored the temple, he noted that the micro-camera unit on his shirt, which contained a fragment of the AI [[Black-Box]], had been peppered with shrapnel. The placement of the unit had saved Phillips' life, but the AI fragment inside had taken damage and activated an emergency purge function, wiping important data and higher personality functions from the AI's memory. While the BB fragment was far less useful in this state, Phillips nonetheless was able to use it to aid in translating certain symbols inside the structure. The data they collected inside was soon speculated to be the locations and operational status of the remaining [[Halo Array|Halo installations]]. Phillips and the BB fragment eventually found their way to a room with a [[Slipspace translocation|translocation portal]]. Phillips unlocked the portal's activation system—similar in design to an arum—and was translocated to the portal's receiving end in [[Acroli]], roughly 80 kilometers from Ontom.

In Acroli, Phillips found himself in a Forerunner ruin and soon encountered [[Unggoy]] field laborers [[Dengo]], [[Gikak]], and [[Sensen]]. After a brief conversation, they agreed to take Phillips to their lords at [[Nes'alun keep]]. On their way to the keep they were attacked by [[Banshee]]s, one of which killed Sensen. Arriving at Nes'alun keep, Phillips met [[Elar 'Nas]], a female Sangheili who was left in charge of the [[keep]] after the males had gone off to fight in the [[Sangheili civil war]].

Elar 'Nas and her sisters had been defending their keep from the [[Lacalu keep]], who had taken advantage of the civil war to launch an assault on Nes'alun Keep in the hopes of acquiring more Acroli land. Phillips proceeded to help Elar 'Nas and the other ladies defend the keep from a wave of attackers. After the skirmish, Elar 'Nas called 'Telcam to inform him that the human he wanted found was with them. Upon receiving the call, 'Telcam ordered [[Forze 'Mdama]] to retrieve Phillips and escort him to ''[[Tart-Cart]]'', so Kilo-Five could return him to the UNSC safely. After pilot [[Lian Devereaux]] performed necessary repairs to the ''Tart-Cart'', Phillips left Sanghelios unsettled by the fate of Elar 'Nas and the others of Nes'alun keep.<ref>'''Halo: The Thursday War''', ''page 260''</ref>
