==Plot synopsis==
==Detailed Summary==
In a flashback, the "[[Key of Osanalan]]" is revealed to be a fictional object made up by [[Ruwan Ackerson]], and his brother, [[James Ackerson]] when they were kids. Colonel Ackerson spoke of the "key" and divulged this false information in order to prevent the [[Covenant Empire|Covenant]] from destroying Cleveland, where Ruwan resided. In response, [[Covenant Empire|Covenant]] forces forcibly assembled nearly all of Cleveland's inhabitants into a stadium for questioning about the Key. Ruwan and Myra are saved by a team of [[UNSC Marine Corps|Marines]] and escape the city in a [[Pelican]], where they tell the [[UNSC Marine Corps|Marines]] what the Key of Osanalan is.

Meanwhile, aboard the [[Forerunner Dreadnought]], [[John-117]], attempting to assassinate the [[Prophet of Truth]], is caught by surprise by a [[Kig-yar|Jackal]] and shot in the back. He falls many stories before landing in front of a procession of [[Jiralhanae|Brutes]] guarding the Prophet of Truth. While the Spartan manages to get several shots at Truth, the prophet is shielded by his [[gravity throne]] and makes his escape, as the Chief is left to fight dozens of Covenant. He kills them all and starts to find a way off the ship.

==Trivia==
==Trivia==
*The [[Gravity hammer (fiction)|Gravity Hammer]] Master Chief is holding on the cover is deactivated, since the Hammer is not emitting its characteristic blue glow. This likely means that at some point in the battle with the [[Covenant Empire|Covenant]] forces now lying dead at his feet the Hammer ran out of power and he was forced to use it simply as a bludgeon.

*The room in which the Master Chief kills a whole pack of Brutes, is identical to the [[Covenant]] [[Council Chamber]]. It is possible that another one was built inside the [[Forerunner Dreadnaught]] for religious and ceremonial reasons.
