{{Article Quote|October [[2559]]. With the galaxy in the suffocating grip of a [[Cortana|renegade artificial intelligence]], another perilous threat has quietly emerged in the shadows: the [[Keepers of the One Freedom]], a fanatical and merciless [[Covenant]] [[Covenant remnant|splinter group]], has made its way beyond the borders of the galaxy to an ancient Forerunner installation known as the [[Installation 00|Ark]].

But with ONI’s field operations now splintered and cut off by the [[Guardian]] threat, Veta’s original mission has suddenly and dramatically escalated in scope. There’s simply no choice or fallback plan—either the Ferrets somehow stop the Keepers or the galaxy faces an extinction-level event….{{Ref/Site|Id=CFParallel|URL=https://www.halowaypoint.com/en-us/news/parallel-threads|Site=Halo Waypoint|Page=Canon Fodder - Parallel Threads|D=25|M=6|Y=2021}}}}
