Few had even heard of subsection seven because it was little more than a technicality, before the Ascendant Justice was captured. Because the humans could not completely search the ship, they instead planned to take it to Reach and try to return with a more prepared team. | Few had even heard of subsection seven because it was little more than a technicality, before the Ascendant Justice was captured.
