Beneath the Library, SPARTAN-117 finds himself in the clutches of the [[Gravemind]], the creature that acts as the sentient intelligence of the Flood. Although Thel 'Vadamee had fallen from a great height, he is saved from plunging to his death by the Gravemind's tentacles. It is within the Gravemind's chamber where Thel 'Vadamee and SPARTAN-117 meet. In addition, the Prophet of Regret is infected and assimilated into its mass. Also introduced is [[2401 Penitent Tangent]], Monitor of Installation 05. Both characters act as exposition to Thel 'Vadamee, as Regret remains steadfast to his faith, and the Monitor is fully aware of its status as a weapon. Thel 'Vadamee is further led to question his faith by both the SPARTAN-117 and the Gravemind itself, as they both try to convince the Elite that the Covenant's belief on the Halos is a lie, revealing that the Halos destroy life, not save it. This information, as well the information of the imminent genocide of the Elites lead Thel 'Vadamee reluctantly joining SPARTAN-117 in the mission to stop the ring from being activated. The Gravemind sends both the SPARTAN-117 and Thel 'Vadamee to different locations to help stop the Index from reaching its destination. SPARTAN-117 was sent to High Charity to retrieve the Index while Thel 'Vadamee was sent to the area where the Control Room of Installation 05 to halt the Covenant from activating the rings.

SPARTAN-117 then enters the middle of a broadcast by the Prophet of Truth. After escaping assassination, Truth and Mercy flee to the [[Forerunner Dreadnought|Dreadnought]], and formally transfers command of the Covenant Military to the Brutes. John-117 chases him, killing many Covenant troops on the way. He also witnesses the conflict between the Elites and Brutes. SPARTAN-117 saves a few Marines along the way. Meanwhile, the Flood, under the control of the Gravemind crash into [[High Charity]] using the ''[[In Amber Clad]]''. When John nearly meets Truth, he finds Mercy being infected by the Flood; the Prophet tells the Spartan that Truth is going to Earth to "finish what [[Hierarchs|we]] started". In his efforts to reach the [[Forerunner Dreadnought]], he has to fight his way through the Flood and the Covenant. After boarding the through an energy conduit Dreadnought, he leaves Cortana behind, but promises that he will come back for her.

Meanwhile, Thel 'Vadamee is teleported to near Halo's control room. There, he finds many dead Elites, which were, no doubt, killed by the Brutes. With the help of a few deployed Elites, and sympathetic [[Unggoy|Grunts]] and [[Mgalekgolo|Hunters]], he fights his way to meet [[Rtas 'Vadum|Rtas 'Vadumee]], who is surprised to hear that the Brutes murdered the [[Councilors]]. Seeing Tartarus land on Halo's control room, the Elites fight their way to a [[Scarab]], where Sergeant Johnson is held. Johnson takes control of the Scarab and forcefully initiates an uneasy alliance between the humans and the Elites. With the combined efforts of Johnson and 'Vadamee, the Scarab breaches the Control Room doors by using the main energy cannon on the Scarab, and 'Vadamee enters the Control Room to confront Tartarus. In the Control Room, he hears the truth of the Halos directly from [[343 Guilty Spark]]. Still blinded by faith, Tartarus forced Miranda Keyes to activate Halo. Many [[Zealot]]s and [[Councilors]] aid 'Vadamee in his final fight against Tartarus, and eventually after a long and tough  fight managed to kill him. Once Tartarus is defeated, Miranda grabs the Index just in time to stop Halo from firing. However, 343 Guilty Spark says that this has activated a fail safe protocol, causing the Installation to send a signal to the rest of the [[Halo Array]], putting them on standby for remote activation from  [[Installation 00|the Ark]].
