:::As for High Charity's absence in ''The Mona Lisa'', it might have been an oversight, but I'm not sure whether the authors themselves intended to have ''The Mona Lisa'' take place between ''Halo CE'' and ''Halo 2'' (it's never mentioned in the story itself); it may have just been someone from the Waypoint crew who didn't consider it thoroughly enough. The ''Red Horse'' crew are aware that there used to be a larger Covenant fleet in the system, which seems to suggest the authors indeed intended the story to take place after High Charity left. --[[User:Jugus|<font color="MidnightBlue"><b>Jugus</b></font>]] <small>([[User talk:Jugus|<font color="Gray">Talk</font>]] | [[Special:Contributions/Jugus|<font color="Gray">Contribs</font>]])</small> 10:08, 26 November 2011 (EST) | :::As for High Charity's absence in ''The Mona Lisa'', it might have been an oversight, but I'm not sure whether the authors themselves intended to have ''The Mona Lisa'' take place between ''Halo CE'' and ''Halo 2'' (it's never mentioned in the story itself); it may have just been someone from the Waypoint crew who didn't consider it thoroughly enough.

I object to this being classified as a pyrrhic victory for the UNSC. This description supposes the alternative outcome of allowing the Flood to spread throughout the galaxy would be more strategically sound. | |||
