Arriving at Otraak, Decimus and his forces were initially attacked by Raan's Unggoy guards, until she had them stand down upon recognizing Decimus. Raan allowed Decimus and his [[Jiralhanae]] into her facility, where Decimus offered her a place in the Banished, promising great awards from Atriox. | ||
Instead, Raan presented her latest invention to the Jiralhanae, a device that mimicked the sonic and pheromonal signals of a [[Yanme'e]] [[Yanme'e Queen|queen]], allowing its user to control dozens of Yanme'e drones. Having a Yanme'e carry her into the air, Raan blocked communications between her facility and the Banished [[Ket-pattern battlecruiser|cruiser]] over Otraak, and ordered her Yanme'e to kill Decimus and his Jiralhanae as [[Treason|traitors]] to the Covenant. The Jiralhanae were initially overwhelmed until Atriox, having predicted Raan's betrayal, joined the fight, aiding his forces in killing the Yanme'e. While Raan attempted to escape, Decimus killed the Yanme'e carrying her and the T'vaoan fell to her death.{{Ref/Reuse|roa}} | Instead, Raan presented her latest invention to the Jiralhanae, a device that mimicked the sonic and pheromonal signals of a [[Yanme'e]] [[Yanme'e Queen|queen]], allowing its user to control dozens of Yanme'e drones.
