===Liberating the Refuge===
===Liberating the Refuge===
While Bal'Tol prepared for the floatfighting match, he made Xelq acting kaidon in his absence. During this time, a former [[Covenant]] supply ship, ''[[Journey's Sustenance]]'', discovered the Refuge and rescued V'ornik from the maintenance pod. Xelq made contact with the ship's crew, consisting of [[San'Shyuum]] [[Zo Resken]], [[Huragok]] [[Sluggish Drifter]], and Sangheili [[D'ero 'S'bud]], [[Tul 'Imjanamee]], [[G'torik 'Klemmee]], and [[Crun 'Brinsmee]]. The group had been in the [[Ussan system]] searching for the Refuge for nearly a year following the dissolution of the Covenant.<ref>'''Halo: Broken Circle''', ''pages 277-279''</ref> Meanwhile, Bal'Tol had recruited nine of the best floatfighters available, including [[Z'nick 'Berda]]. 'Kinsa arrived with an extra member on his team and armed himself with a mec-missiler, a weapon not traditionally used in floatfighting. Outnumbered by 'Kinsa's Blood Sick followers, many of Bal'Tol's patrollers and floatfighters died during the match, including Z'nick. Bal'Tol battled legendary floatfighter [[V'urm 'Kerdeck]], but was easily outmatched by him. Before V'urm could kill the kaidon, he was killed by [[Enduring Bias]], the [[monitor]] of the Refuge that had been deactivated years before. When Sluggish Drifter came aboard the Refuge, he had repaired the monitor who then proceeded to search for the colony's current kaidon.<ref>'''Halo: Broken Circle''', ''pages 280-283''</ref> Enduring Bias spoke with Bal'Tol, confirming that the crew of ''Journey's Sustenance'' came from ''[[High Charity]]'' and [[Sanghelios]]. 'Kinsa attempted to destroy the monitor with his mec-missiler, but he was quickly killed by him when his bolt proved to be ineffective against Enduring Bias. Enduring Bias had Bal'Tol and C'tenz brought away for medical attention, while the remaining of 'Kinsa's followers surrendered or fled.<ref>'''Halo: Broken Circle''', ''pages 285-286''</ref>

Bal'Tol had given permission for Enduring Bias, several patrollers, and the majority of the crew of ''Journey's Sustenance'' to help liberate sections of the Refuge still under control by 'Kinsa's followers.<ref>'''Halo: Broken Circle''', ''page 288''</ref> Soon, most of the insurgents had been killed. Bal'Tol and his closest allies went before a crowd of Ussans that had gathered in the plaza of the Primary Section, while nearly all other Ussans were watching in their residences. Bal'Tol gave a speech informing the Ussans that the Covenant had been destroyed and that they all now had access to other worlds. He allowed all of them the opportunity to leave the Refuge and visit Sanghelios, but he knew most would remain behind. He also revealed that the Blood Sickness had been cured by the Huragok and Enduring Bias, and cures would be passed throughout the colony.<ref>'''Halo: Broken Circle''', ''pages 291-292''</ref> After the speech, he had Enduring Bias join the fragmented sections of the Refuge together, forming a connected, ring-shaped structure for the Ussans to live in. With the Refuge now back in functioning order and a safer place to live, Bal'Tol pledged to continue to lead his people and postpone his visit to Sanghelios, until he had more free time.<ref>'''Halo: Broken Circle''', ''page 295''</ref>
