The introduction of the [[Covenant ~~loyalists~~]] also ties directly into the later novel ''[[Halo: Divine Wind]]'' where the loyalists reappear and ally themselves with the [[Keepers of the One Freedom]].

The introduction of the [[Dhas Bhasvod's Covenant]] also ties directly into the later novel ''[[Halo: Divine Wind]]'' where the loyalists reappear and ally themselves with the [[Keepers of the One Freedom]].

==Summary==

''Sacrifice'' takes place on [[Installation 00]], a few months before the [[Operation: WOLFE|events]] of ''[[Halo: Shadows of Reach]]'' and at some time following the end of the ''[[Halo Wars 2: Awakening the Nightmare|Awakening the Nightmare]]'' expansion for ''[[Halo Wars 2]]''. It follows [[Chieftain]] [[Minas]] of the [[Banished]], who had been sent by [[Atriox]] to lead [[Raid on Anodyne Spirit|an operation]] into [[Anodyne Spirit|the abandoned]] [[Forerunner]] [[Keyship]]. His mission is to recover shards of a [[slipspace]] [[Menachite Forerunner crystal|crystal]] aboard the vessel in order to open a [[Slipspace portal|portal]] to [[Reach]]. Upon entering the Dreadnought, the Banished strike teams are ambushed by [[Covenant ~~loyalists~~|surviving members]] of the [[Covenant]], who had remained there since the [[Battle of Installation 00|battle]] that had ravaged the installation nearly seven years prior. Despite the unexpected resistance, Minas and the [[Jiralhanae Captain|captain]] of his guard, [[Choros]], led the strike teams deeper into the Keyship. Eventually, they reached the Adytum, which contained the desired shards. However, overwhelming Covenant forces nearly prevented their escape, with roughly two thirds of the Banished force—including Choros—killed in battle.{{Ref/Novel|Id=Sacrifice|HSoR|Detail= Adjunct - Sacrifice}}
