*During the level [[Cortana(Level)|Cortana]] in ''Halo 3'', the part of the level where you rescue [[Cortana]] from the Stasis Field bears strong resemblence to the Step of Silence, the pedestal in the center of the room is distinctly recognizable, even though features such as the sharded roof and glass window are not present because the [[Flood]] destroyed them and instead either filled the area with large amounts of biomass or simply left a hole there. The doors on each side of the room are recognizable too, if one paid attention to the geometry of the room during Halo 2, when the character was in the only mildly Flood-infested Step of Silence.

Suspended from the ceiling are hundreds of shards of glass, each a piece of a planet that has been glassed by the Covenant.
