| The countdown page has disappeared entirely. Instead, any attempt to reach the page is instead redirected to a new I.P. address, ending in .61, labeled "Server 05 Open". The page contains a rotating, Forerunner-esque object that is manipulatable. By clicking various symbols on it's surface, several different files can be downloaded. Be warned, however, that one symbol will make the object spin several times, then close your browser. Also, there is a message that can be seen by clicking on one symbol. AdjutantReflex's symbol also adorns this object next to four other symbols; however, AR's symbol is glowing. The four other symbols may be related to the four locked servers. | | The countdown page has disappeared entirely.

| Among the downloadable files is a copy of the above text, another text file entitled "Array Recorder Data," and image entitled Flood Containment Control, and an image of stars with the symbol used by AdjutantReflex among them.
| |
| | |
| The message that can be broadcast with the artifact (by clicking on the circle within a circle that appears on the upper part of one of the sides) contains 2 messages that appear for a split second where the {//}'s can be seen in the log file. They are:
| |
| | |
| 1. If you are that witness, and it seems that we pinned all of our hopes on this single suicidal plan
| |
| | |
| 2. Millions of brave and honored souls died trying to avert this desperate, terrible solution
| |
| | |
| "Array Recorder Data" is apparently the final countdown of the first use of the Halos and features several notes from an unknown source:

| 3 minutes, 5 seconds -
| |
| ''There is no peace left. No place where the parasite cannot reach. You were right about it all. Let us hope the final measure is not too late.''
| |
| | |
| 1 minutes, 12 seconds - | |
| Confrm: Array burn radium {check} 3.0
| |
| Confrm: Array sync …1…2…3…4…5…6…7…{check}
| |
| Commence…_{ }
| |
| | |
| ^^^ Note when it talks about "array syncing", it mentions 7 arrays, which is is concurrent with Bungie's repeated use of the number 7. Also there are 7 Halo's, which may be what it is referring to by "arrays". Also, the "radium {check} 3.0" is likely a reference to the range of the Halo array, which 343 Guilty Spark confirmed as 3 times the radius of the galactic center.
| |
| | |
| 60 seconds -
| |
| ''It's done. By my hands. The pyrrhic solution is ignited. All I have left is the quiet of space to lull me to sleep. I will dream of you.''
| |
| | |
| 49 seconds -
| |
| Mentions "Array Authorized…_" over and over 15 times. Could be referring to the Halos.
| |
| | |
| 11 seconds -
| |
| ''I feel no peril.''
| |
| | |
| 5 seconds -
| |
| ''No pain. No remorse. Is that normal?''
| |
| | |
| 0 seconds -
| |
| Judging from the text in Array_Recorder_Data.txt, it appears the Halo's were fired when it reaches 0 seconds, and the entire document up to that point was a countdown to the rings firing. This record may have been kept by a Forerunner or a Forerunner AI. This is of course speculation and is unknown at this time.
| |
| | |
| 7 seconds -
| |
| This might be 7 seconds after the 0 second mark. So if the rings were fired, this is 7 seconds after. Not much here other than "reset………………………….." being repeated over and over, 104 times, until the end of the .txt file. If the rings were fired, this might be the computer system or AI resetting all the rings after their ignition. Also, seven seconds after is concurrent with Bungie's number 7 motif in their games. Again, this is speculation.

| :''See the main article at [[REF070507]]''
| |
| | |
| The image "Flood Containment Control" appears to be a microscopic slide view of the Flood.
| |
| | |
| On the Flood Containment Control picture it says REF070507, which means: Slide Reference 070507, which might be the date 07/05/07. So something may happen on July 5th, 2007.
