The Didact then summoned an army of newly-created Promethean constructs to battle the Spartans. While Static Carillon fulfilled its end of the bargain, transitioning Installation 03 over the Composer's Forge, it also turned on the Didact as he had violated his side of the bargain by bringing Prometheans to its installation. The Didact departed for the portal, planning to repair the Halo and use it against Earth; he also took one of the Composers from the Forge and transported it to the Halo.

Back on the surface of Installation 03, the Didact confronted Blue Team again, intending to kill them once and for all. However, John-117 managed to stab him in the eye with a [[combat knife]] in a surprise attack.
