After revealing herself to Fred, she was captured by the Spartan and rendered immobile by a [[scramble grenade]] that hit her systems with an [[electromagnetic pulse]] burst every half second. The humans eventually returned to Wendosa with Intrepid Eye and Roams Alone. As the Spartans aided the 717th Xeno-Materials Exploitation Battalion in combating the [[Keepers of the One Freedom]] attacking the village, Lopis was left in charge of watching the ancilla and Huragok.

While Blue Team and Lopis attempted to retrieve Fred and Intrepid Eye from the Falcon wreckage, Keeper forces arrived at the crash with similar intentions.

She eventually resolved to returning to the Forerunners for reassignment. Her transfer to Fred's armor soon completed while the armor was undergoing repairs and she was forced to abandon the damaged inspection drone in favor of the empty suit of armor. However, without [[neural interface]] from Fred, Intrepid Eye was limited in using the armor's functions.<ref name="ll256">'''Halo: Last Light''', ''pages 256-261'' (Google Play edition)</ref> | ||
Communicating with Wendell again, the human AI revealed to her that the ecumene had fallen and the Forerunners had left the galaxy. With the Forerunners gone, Wendell reminded her that humans were chosen by the Forerunners to assume the [[Mantle]] and it was therefore her duty to serve them—the [[Unified Earth Government]] in particular.<ref name="ll256"/> Meanwhile, Lopis, Nelson, and Corporal [[Tegg]] were taking samples from the inspection drone's casings to find proof that the ancilla was responsible for the murders in the caves. Scanning Gao's records, Intrepid Eye learned that Wendell was not lying and that there had been several instances of Forerunner ancilla aiding humanity. However, she remained unconvinced that humanity was suitable for upholding the Mantle, as she found that the humans were continuously at war with other species and themselves. While she and Wendell conversed, Intrepid Eye managed to restore the inspection drone's operating system and initiated the drone's self-repair features afterwards. Once the drone was functional, she returned to it and launched herself at Tegg, killing the human with its utility tentacles; [[Arlo Casille]]—who just became the [[President of the Gao Republic|President of Gao]]—issued the order for Gao's forces to attack the UNSC, leading Intrepid Eye to believe that the warring humans were not worthy of the Mantle when she learned of the order. Destroying Wendell, Intrepid Eye took control of the module and slammed an exterior hatch down on Nelson, killing the commander as he attempted to escape. Trapping Lopis inside an [[airlock]], Intrepid Eye began to depressurize the entire module to kill the final witness to her attack.<ref name="ll264"/> However, Fred and the Spartan-IIIs arrived at the module and managed to free Lopis. Intrepid Eye exited the module and attacked the humans, however, the inspection drone was again damaged when Private [[A. Gallo|Gallo]] shot the drone after Intrepid Eye had killed [[Ryan|her partner]]. The ancilla was recaptured and a scramble grenade was placed on her again. | Communicating with Wendell again, the human AI revealed to her that the ecumene had fallen and the Forerunners had left the galaxy.
