The '''Far Tower''' was a [[Covenant]] tower on the orbital holy city of ''[[High Charity]]''. It featured some [[Holo-Pedestal]]s, a [[Gravity Lift]] and three landing pads for [[Phantom]]s. This is where the [[High Prophet of Truth]] boarded a Phantom to reach the [[Forerunner Dreadnought]] and where the [[High Prophet of Mercy]] was attacked and killed by a [[Flood]] [[Infection Form]]. It was connected to the [[Mausoleum of the Arbiter]] by a solitary bridge.

In ''[[Halo 2]]'' it is the first location you appear in on the level [[High Charity (Level)|High Charity]]. A [[Pelican]] crashes and Flood [[Combat Forms]] emerge from the wreckage, followed by 2 [[Brutes]] (Rank depends on difficulty) from a door to combat the newly arrived Flood. This is also another place where [[Flood Juggernaut]]s were supposed to spawn.
