Unlike other Huragok, who normally keep to themselves, Lighter Than Some befriended the [[Unggoy]] [[Deacon]] [[Dadab]] and taught Dadab the Huragok sign language during the voyages of the ''[[Minor Transgression]]''. When the Covenant vessel stumbled across the [[human]] [[freighter]], ''[[Horn of Plenty]],'' and disabled it, Lighter Than Some was able to extract the coordinates of the freighter's point of origin: the human colony Harvest. During the transit to the system, Dadab tried to share a game—in which the Unggoy used a rock to kill scrub grubs—with the Huragok; however, Lighter Than Some found even the extermination of pests immoral.<ref>'''[[Halo: Contact Harvest]]''', ''page 91''</ref> Upon reaching the system, ''Minor Transgression'' raided the ship ''[[This End Up]]'' in search of what the Covenant ship's [[Luminary]] designated as a [[Forerunner]] relic. The "relic", the sole human and pilot of that vessel, [[Henry Gibson]], attempted to repel the boarders, and Lighter Than Some killed him with Dadab's hunting rock just as the human was about to kill Dadab. This event deeply disturbed the pacifist Huragok. | Unlike other Huragok, who normally keep to themselves, Lighter Than Some befriended the [[Unggoy]] [[Deacon]] [[Dadab]] and taught Dadab the Huragok sign language during the voyages of the ''[[Minor Transgression]]''.
