Plot synopsis

Dr. Hasley and her Zealot escort meet with the Sangheili Minor who betrayed Sali 'Nyon. Halsey orders the Minor to show her his half of the Janus Key. The Minor expressed surprise that a human has been sent to retrieve the key, but a Zealot forces him to give her the Key. Halsey contemplates the key but the Minor is executed by one of the Zealots with a plasma rifle. Another Zealot, indignant, asks him why he killed the Minor before giving the location of 'Nyon's hideout. The Zealot states that the hideout's location was already discovered by their own. Before a conflict between the two arises Halsey tells them they need to return to the Song of Retribution, but they are ambushed by Commander Palmer, Thorne and Ray.

With their Phantom surrounded by the Spartans, Halsey and a Zealot flee to the forest. Palmer orders Thorne and Ray to cover her as she tracks Halsey. After fleeing, Halsey asks the Zealot how the Spartans managed to get to their position, but before he can answer her the Zealot detects motion above him and lights his energy sword.[2]
