Under monitoring by Halsey and [[Adun Saly]], John activated the keystone once again, triggering more of his childhood memories featuring a young John drawing and exploring a glowing cavern. As John reached for something in the memory, Halsey had [[Cortana/Silver|Cortana]] put John into stasis so as to have Cortana access the artifact herself. However, as soon as Cortana shut John down, the keystone deactivated itself and Cortana got no readings from it at all. Halsey had Cortana release John who called this experience with the artifact "different" than the previous times. With Cortana's help, John later attempted to locate the planet from his memories using the [[FLEETCOM Central Database]].{{Ref/Reuse|Emergence}} | Under monitoring by Halsey and [[Adun Saly]], John activated the keystone once again, triggering more of his childhood memories featuring a young John drawing and exploring a glowing cavern.

After removing his [[emotional regulator]] and having an epiphany after seeing a dog in the park, John returned to the artifact and had Cortana, with Halsey's consent, override the lock on the room's door. Despite Cortana's warnings that touching the keystone put a strain on his heart and nervous system each time, John activated it once again and unlocked more of his childhood memories which revealed that he drew both the Madrigal keystone and another one, showing his mother that the two artifacts went together and that John's father had eventually forced him to bury something against his will. With the added information from his newly-unlocked memories, John identified the planet that the second keystone was on as [[Eridanus II]]. John subsequently explained to Halsey that John had realized that his altered hormonal state from the regulator had been messing with his interactions with the keystone.{{Ref/Reuse|Emergence}} | After removing his [[emotional regulator]] and having an epiphany after seeing a dog in the park, John returned to the artifact and had Cortana, with Halsey's consent, override the lock on the room's door.

A second keystone existed on [[Eridanus II]], one that went with the [[Madriagl]] keystone. It was discovered by [[John-117/Silver|John-117]] as a child,{{Ref/Film|Id=Homecoming|TV|[[Homecoming (TV Series)|Homecoming]]}} causing him to repeatedly draw both the Eridanus keystone and the Madrigal one, recognizing that they went together. Eventually, [[John-117's father|John's father]] grew frustrated and forced John to bury his drawings of the keystones.{{Ref/Reuse|Emergence}} | A second keystone existed on [[Eridanus II]], one that went with the [[Madriagl]] keystone.

In [[2552]], after the adult John touched the Madrigal keystone, his blocked childhood memories surrounding the Eridanus keystone started to be unlocked.{{Ref/Reuse|Contact}}{{Ref/Reuse|Unbound}} John eventually remembered that there was a second artifact on his home planet and located the correct world with [[Cortana/Silver|Cortana's]] help, although Eridanus II was uninhabited by this point and sealed off, most of the population having been wiped out by a plague. John decided to return to Eridanus II in search of the keystone and Dr. [[Catherine Halsey/Silver|Catherine Halsey]] insisted upon going with him.{{Ref/Reuse|Emergence}} | In [[2552]], after the adult John touched the Madrigal keystone, his blocked childhood memories surrounding the Eridanus keystone started to be unlocked.{{Ref/Reuse|Contact}}{{Ref/Reuse|Unbound}} John eventually remembered that there was a second artifact on his home planet and located the correct world with [[Cortana/Silver|Cortana's]] help, although Eridanus II was uninhabited by this point and sealed off, most of the population having been wiped out by a plague.
