Line 80: Line 82:
Within Jul 'Mdama's Covenant fleet, Sali 'Nyon broadcast a transmission to incite Jul's forces to join him in his rebellion against 'Mdama. Meanwhile, Jul 'Mdama and his forces continued to personally track down and eliminate Sali 'Nyon's followers on the planet. A Sangheili Zealot advised him to return to the ''Song of Retribution'' for his safety, but 'Mdama declined. When informed that his forces were about to breach the structure where the UNSC forces remained barricaded, 'Mdama ordered his forces to kill all the humans when they entered the site, except Glassman as he had a special punishment for him. Jul entered a Phantom where he was contacted by Dr. Halsey, who stressed the importance of recovering the Janus Key over 'Nyon's rebellion. Because of the ongoing crisis, 'Mdama fulfilled Halsey's request to personally land on the planet to acquire the Janus Key. Halsey subsequently departed for the planet aboard a Phantom, escorted by Jul's forces.{{Ref/Reuse|HE15}}

In the jungle Hoya was facing what were, unknown to him, 'Nyon's forces. A Zealot was about to kill him when a Promethean Knight loyal to 'Mdama kicked the Zealot, inadvertently saving Hoya in the process. Hoya fell off a cliff and spotted Dr. Halsey aboard a Phantom. Meanwhile, 'Mdama's Covenant breached the Forerunner structure where the Spartans had taken shelter and attacked them. Ray informed Palmer that Hoya had spotted Dr. Halsey.{{Ref/Reuse|HE15}}

In Sali 'Nyon's hideout on the planet, some of his followers began to question the feasibility of his rebellion. 'Nyon continued to reassure his followers that the Forerunners had blessed them, citing his acquisition of the half of the Janus Key as proof. However, [[unidentified Sangheili Minor (Aktis IV)|one Sangheili Minor]], believing that the Promethean constructs' allegiance to Jul 'Mdama was evidence to the contrary, decided to leave 'Nyon's rebel faction and stole the Janus Key half in 'Nyon's position, intending to offer it to 'Mdama as a gesture of penance.{{Ref/Reuse|HE15}}

Inside the Forerunner structure, Glassman opened the teleportation grid. At Palmer's request, Glassman opened portals to both the jungle and the other end of the island. She ordered [[Tedra Grant]], Glassman and three other Spartans to take the latter portal while Palmer, Ray and Thorne took the former. On the other end of the island, ''Infinity'' had managed to deploy two [[Mark IX Mantis ADS|Mantises]] as reinforcements. As they were fighting Jul 'Mdama's Covenant forces, Grant's team arrived through the portal and were almost killed by friendly fire from the Mantises.{{Ref/Reuse|HE15}}

Upon traveling through the portal, Palmer, Ray and Thorne scouted the jungle when they spotted the Sangheili Minor who had defected from 'Nyon's forces in a [[Karo'etba-pattern Ghost|Ghost]]. The Minor contacted a Zealot of Jul's Covenant and told him he wanted to rejoin 'Mdama, having reached the conclusion that Jul was the true Didact's Hand because the Prometheans would never obey an impostor. He then revealed he had the half of the Janus Key stolen by 'Nyon, and he would lead them to 'Nyon's hideout. The Zealot ordered him to conceal himself until they arrived and established a rendezvous point. Thorne and Ray intended to ambush the Minor in order to take the Janus Key before Dr. Halsey arrived with a greater force. However, Palmer instead ordered them to hold off and wait until Halsey arrived so they could catch the doctor by surprise.{{Ref/Reuse|HE15}}

Dr. Halsey and her Zealot escort met with the Sangheili defector. The Minor was forced to turn over the artifact and was then promptly executed by one of the Zealots as he had outlived his usefulness; 'Mdama's faction already knew the location of Sali 'Nyon's hideout. Before they could return to the ''Song of Retribution'', the group was ambushed by Palmer, Thorne and Ray. With their Phantom surrounded by the Spartans, Halsey and a Zealot fled to the forest. Palmer gave chase while leaving Thorne and Ray to deal with 'Mdama's Covenant forces. In the jungle, Palmer killed the Zealot guarding Halsey and captured the doctor.{{Ref/Reuse|HE16}}

Meanwhile, Jul's forces destroyed the last of Sali 'Nyon's outposts. A wounded and [[Physical restraints|restrained]] 'Nyon was brought before 'Mdama, who intended to keep the [[Treason|traitor]] alive for his punishment.{{Ref/Reuse|HE16}}
