Reff 'Talamee: Difference between revisions

When the two brothers joined the [[Covenant Empire|Covenant]], Thon rose through the ranks to becoming [[Shipmaster]] of the Covenant [[Assault Carrier]] ''[[Clarity of Faith]]'', with Reff by his side. While attempting to rendezvous with a supply convoy, they encounter a burst transmission displayed a Pi-constant, not used by the Covenant or the [[Human]]s. Reff presumed took this to be a sign of the [[Forerunner]]s and the [[Great Journey]] and insisted that they must investigate. However, Thon didn't care about that and ordered ''Clarity'' to make a [[Slipstream Space|Slipspace jump]]. When they jumped, there was a sudden burst of fire that sent the ''Clarity'' crashing down onto an [[Unnamed Moon]]. Reff immediately presumed that the Great Journey was about to start. Thon, slamming his brother against a bulkhead, scolded him for speaking heresy. He further warned that if Reff ever interfered with his command, he would personally gut his carcass.<ref>'''Halo: Blood Line''' - ''[[Halo: Blood Line Issue 1|Issue 1]]''</ref>

Reff was horrified that he was doomed to be torn apart. Black-One told him to pull himself together. Their heartwarming conversation was interrupted by the return of Prism, who turned his eye on Black-One. Reff pleaded before the Monitor, stating that the Human didn't believe in the Journey. Prism was more fascinated with Reff's rudimentary understanding of protocol and instead dissected the Unggoy, before moving on to deal some "unauthorized" presences inside the Installation. Black-One reaffirmed his attention to make her death quick and painless, to which the Monitor was more than glad to accomplish. However, it was a trick, as Black-One used her helmet to deflect the lasers at a nearby Gatherer, hitting her space mag clip, causing the machine to crash into her cell. Grabbing its weapon, she uses it to free Thon before they fled from Prism. As they were chased through the halls by Prism and his [[Sentinel]]s, Black-One was knocked down by a Sentinel's [[Sentinel Beam|energy beam]]. Reff retaliated by grabbing a Sentinel weapon and damaged Prism's eye, declaring the Monitor to be a false Oracle. They then eluded him in the Installation's central control chamber. Inside, Reff contacted Thon, who had temporarily allied with Team Black, to guide him to his location. But once his brother arrived, he had Black-One slammed into the control console. Seeing a holographic display of the supply convoy they were suppose to meet, Thon said that they must contact ''[[High Charity (Structure)|High Charity]]'' to receive assistance in securing the Installation. However, Reff had other ideas. He then preached that they must instead up the Installation's weapons to blow the [[Hierarchs]]' servants out of the sky, claiming that it was destiny that he was brought her to build a new Covenant. Thon scolded him for such thoughts, reminding him that it was only because of him that he had made it this far. Refusing to tolerate him anymore or stain their family name, Thon had no choice to commit fratricide against his own brother. However, Reff grabbed Thon's [[Type-1 Energy Weapon/Sword|Energy Sword]] and impaled his brother with it. Soon after, Prism had returned with a swarm of Sentinels and Gatherers, demanding that Reff step away from the console. Reff refused to listen, stating that it is he who shall unite both Covenant and Human together on the path for the Great Journey. In response, Prism vaporized Reff from the legs up.<ref>'''Halo: Blood Line''' - ''[[Halo: Blood Line Issue 5|Issue 5]]''</ref>
