859 Static Carillon: Difference between revisions

However, the Didact soon broke the agreement between him and the monitor, creating more Knights. He intended to send them to [[Requiem]] to retake the [[shield world]]. The next day, Static Carillon was horrified to learn that the Didact had broken his part of the agreement. However, the Didact grabbed the monitor's shell and angrily reminded it that it had not yet held up its part of the bargain. 859 then managed to bring Installation 03 through slipspace to the sky of the world. When he informed [[Blue Team]] of the Didact's plan, [[John-117]] decided they had to get to the Halo before the Didact. 859 decided to help them, not because it cared for humans but simply because the Didact broke his agreement. 859 helped Blue Team make their way to the portal and held off the Knights while they went through the portal, promising to look for a way to close it.<ref name="HE9"/>

After preventing the Promethean forces from entering the portal, Static Carillon followed Blue Team to Installation 03 where it found that the Didact was already preparing to finish off the Spartans. The monitor disabled the Didact by shooting him in the back with its energy beam and used an emergency [[teleportation]] measure to transport the Promethean commander into the [[Control Room (Installation 03)|Halo's control room]]; according to the monitor, this was the only option to prevent the Didact from slaughtering the Spartans. After he and Blue Team recovered and discovered the Halo's [[Activation Index]] that the Didact had discarded when the monitor ambushed him, John-117 suggested that they fire the Halo to destroy the Didact. However, Static Carillon reminded him of the galactic-scale damage the pulse would cause, instead suggesting that the Master Chief use the Index to disable a set of safeties and thus allowing the monitor to scuttle the segment of the ring housing the control room and crash it into the Composer's Forge.<ref name="HE10">'''Halo: Escalation''', ''[[Halo: Escalation Issue 10|Issue #10]]''</ref>
