==Production notes==
{{Quote|The faith of the newly converted burns bright enough to consume any truth.{{Ref/Reuse|CFMyths}}}}
The [[MCC Insider|Flight]] preview builds for ''[[Series 8: Mythic]]'' contained an additional helmet that was later [[Cut Halo: The Master Chief Collection customization|cut from]] the final release. The helmet, ''Blackguard Tearful Bishop'', was featured in the original flight and given an official description in the accompanying [[Canon Fodder]] article released alongside the armours - though ultimately absent from the final release.{{Ref/Reuse|CFMyths}} The ''Halo'' 20th Anniversary celebration event in November 2021 ultimately saw a redesigned form of the ''Tearful Bishop'', the ''Fallen Equerry'', added into the game.
