The science team questioned the damaged monitor on his origins, who obliged the humans due to their authority as [[Reclaimer]]s. Over the course of the interrogation, Spark breached the ''Rubicon's'' firewall several times, much to the team's dismay. Spark powered down after concluding his story and his damaged remains were subsequently ejected into space; unknown to the crew he had already transferred his consciousness to the shipboard computers. After subduing the [[Curator|onboard AI]] and taking control of the ship, he explained to the crew that he was going to resume his quest to find the [[Librarian]] and to restore his old friends, [[Riser]] and [[Vinnevra]], back to life. Asserting that the Librarian was still alive, he put the crew to sleep and had the ''Rubicon'' proceed to her location.<ref>'''[[Halo: Primordium]]'''</ref><ref name="mythos">'''[[Halo Mythos]]'''</ref> | The science team questioned the damaged monitor on his origins, who obliged the humans due to their authority as [[Reclaimer]]s.

In order to prepare the ship for the journey he planned, Spark used one of the Ark's remaining active [[slipspace portal]]s to return the ''Rubicon'' to the galaxy with the intention of taking it to the [[shield world]] [[Trove]] to get an [[upgrade seed]], unaware that the Etran Harborage had been [[Battle of Trove|destroyed]] in [[2531]] by the crew of the {{UNSCShip|Spirit of Fire}}.<ref>'''[[Halo: Renegades]]''', ''page 143''</ref> However, there were complications after Spark took control and the ''Rubicon'' crashed into the planet [[Geranos-a]] in the [[Ibycus system]]. The crash killed everyone on board, though Spark survived by transferring himself into an [[armiger]] salvaged by the ''Rubicon'' from the Ark. Spark buried the crew in a mass grave on the planet and calculated that he was only 62.35% culpable in the tragedy. Spark sent out a distress signal that was eventually picked up by a cargo ship three years later in [[2557]] and passed on to [[UNSC Armed Forces|the military]]. Having learned of Spark's story, ONI intended to capture the AI for themselves, but the wreckage was reached by the [[salvager]] vessel ''[[Ace of Spades]]'' first. The crew of the ''Ace of Spades'' recovered Spark and escaped with him. As part of a deal with ONI to get their seized property back, the ''Ace of Spades'' crew turned over everything they had salvaged from the ''Rubicon'' in August, including a data core they claimed held Spark but in reality held a splinter of him instead.<ref>'''[[Halo: Renegades]]'''</ref> | In order to prepare the ship for the journey he planned, Spark used one of the Ark's remaining active [[slipspace portal]]s to return the ''Rubicon'' to the galaxy with the intention of taking it to the [[shield world]] [[Trove]] to get an [[upgrade seed]], unaware that the Etran Harborage had been [[Battle of the Trove|destroyed]] in [[2531]] by the crew of the {{UNSCShip|Spirit of Fire}}.<ref>'''[[Halo: Renegades]]''', ''page 143''</ref> However, there were complications after Spark took control and the ''Rubicon'' crashed into the planet [[Geranos-a]] in the [[Ibycus system]].
