After John and Makee's combined use of the keystone to see Halo, the nature of their connection shifted to the point that the keystones remained inactive unless they were touching them at the same time. When John approached one keystone, the other one in Makee's possession lit up in response.{{Ref/Film|Id=Onyx|TV|Episode=[[Onyx (TV Series)|Onyx]]}}

===Madrigal Keystone===
In [[2552]], the [[Covenant]] launched an [[Operation: DEFIANT GLASS|attack]] on [[Madrigal/Silver|Madrigal]] for the keystone, wiping out a nearby [[Insurrectionist]] outpost. The Spartans of [[Silver Team/Silver|Silver Team]] eliminated the attacking [[Sangheili]] and [[John-117/Silver|John-117]] and [[Kai-125/Silver|Kai-125]] entered the cave where the Covenant had been excavating for the artifact. Upon finding the keystone, John touched it and the artifact reacted to the touch of a [[Reclaimer]], lighting up the entire cave and displaying symbols. It had a surprising effect on John, apparently unlocking some of his sealed memories of his childhood. The artifact's reaction to John was noticed by a surviving Sangheili who managed to escape and report it back to the [[Prophet of Mercy/Silver|Prophet of Mercy]] who had learned of the artifact's location from [[Makee]].{{Ref/Reuse|Contact}}

Throughout his return trip to [[Reach]], John remained fascinated by the artifact while Dr. [[Catherine Halsey/Silver|Catherine Halsey]] became concerned about its effects on John and his memories. After John rebelled rather than execute [[Kwan Ha]], the UNSC shot down [[Condor 325|his]] [[D80 Condor|Condor]] with an [[electromagnetic pulse]], knocking the artifact loose from its casing in the process. John touched it, causing the symbols to display once again and for John to experience more of his memories. In one of his memories, a young John drew a picture of the artifact for [[John-117's mother|his mother]]. The artifact then let out a pulse that knocked out power to the UNSC base while restoring power to John's Condor, allowing John to escape from Reach with Kwan and the artifact.{{Ref/Reuse|Contact}}

Admiral [[Margaret Parangosky/Silver|Margaret Parangosky]] later told [[Miranda Keyes/Silver|Miranda Keyes]] that results confirmed that the keystone was over 100,000 years old which Miranda was stunned by, calling it pre-human and possibly even pre-Covenant. Miranda noted that the keystone was organic, but with what appeared to be an inherent technology. Parangosky revealed what John had learned about it leading to a weapon somewhere and asked Miranda to lead a team analyzing the artifact to determine what it was, what it did, if it was in fact a part of some kind of a weapon or anything that could give humanity an edge over the Covenant. Parangosky sought to create parallel teams studying in the artifact in order to find a way to be less reliant on Halsey in the future.{{Ref/Film|Id=Emergence|TV|Episode=[[Emergence]]}}

Under monitoring by Halsey and [[Adun Saly]], John activated the keystone once again, triggering more of his childhood memories featuring a young John drawing and exploring a glowing cavern. As John reached for something in the memory, Halsey had [[Cortana/Silver|Cortana]] put John into stasis so as to have Cortana access the artifact herself. However, as soon as Cortana shut John down, the keystone deactivated itself and Cortana got no readings from it at all. Halsey had Cortana release John who called this experience with the artifact "different" than the previous times. With Cortana's help, John later attempted to locate the planet from his memories using the [[FLEETCOM Central Database]].{{Ref/Reuse|Emergence}}

After removing his [[emotional regulator]] and having an epiphany after seeing a dog in the park, John returned to the artifact and had Cortana, with Halsey's consent, override the lock on the room's door. Despite Cortana's warnings that touching the keystone put a strain on his heart and nervous system each time, John activated it once again and unlocked more of his childhood memories which revealed that he drew both the Madrigal keystone and another larger one, showing his mother that the two artifacts went together and that John's father had eventually forced him to bury something against his will. With the added information from his newly-unlocked memories, John identified the planet that the second keystone was on as [[Eridanus II]]. John subsequently explained to Halsey that John had realized that his altered hormonal state from the regulator had been messing with his interactions with the keystone.{{Ref/Reuse|Emergence}}

While John and Halsey were away searching for the Eridanus II keystone, Miranda tested the Madrigal keystone on [[Silver Team/Silver|Silver Team]], but it failed to react to any of the other Spartans. After discovering that the Spartans knew some of the [[Sangheili (language)/Silver|Sangheili language]] in the process, Miranda enlisted [[Kai-125/Silver|Kai-125]]'s help to translate Makee's message to her ship following the attack on the ''Gladius''. The two translated the word "keystone" which they realized likely meant the artifact and accessed the recording of John first activating the keystone. Miranda and Kai realized that the ring displayed on the activated keystone was the Sacred Ring or Halo that Makee was talking about. Kai agreed to Miranda's request to keep their discovery hidden until Miranda could figure out what it all meant.{{Ref/Reuse|Homecoming}}

Makee and a team of Sangheili examined the cavern that had held the keystone with [[Luminary|Luminaries]] in the hopes of finding a trail to lead them to the second keystone. After the Eridanus II keystone let out an energy pulse, the Luminaries picked it up. Touching the spot on the wall where the keystone had resided, Makee saw where the second keystone was.{{Ref/Reuse|Reckoning}}

Monitored by Miranda and, secretly, Halsey and [[Adun Saly]], John activated the keystone once again which also affected Makee in a different room, causing Makee to collapse and both of them to have an accelerated heartrate and John to start to go into circulatory failure as he experienced a number of his childhood memories. Wanting to see the outcome, Halsey refused to let Cortana shut John down to end the danger to him. Finally, John stabilized as he was transported into a vision alongside Makee into a vision where they were standing on a Halo ring.{{Ref/Reuse|Solace}}

When John arrived on Onyx in pursuit of Ackerson and Admiral [[Margaret Parangosky/Silver|Margaret Parangosky]], Cortana made contact with Parangosky using [[Var 'Gatanai]]'s comm system, at the same time appearing to John and warning him that the Covenant was very close to find Halo and he needed to touch the keystone. Cortana led John through the base to the keystone, opening doors for him and locking out ONI forces trying to stop him. As John approached the Madrigal keystone, the Eridanus keystone let up on Var's ship and John and Makee touched the keystones at the same time.{{Ref/Reuse|Onyx}} The pair were sent back into the vision of Halo together where they conversed until Makee came under attack by Covenant forces who became partially visible in the vision as well as the ONI soldiers approaching John.

Outside of his childhood home, John dug up the box containing his drawings of both keystones.

The UNSC subsequently had trouble removing the keystone from the rock, causing Halsey to set up a camp nearby and bring in more UNSC personnel to help with the problem. As Halsey and her team struggled to remove the keystone from the rock, Cortana appeared to the watching John and told him that an analysis of its field physics suggested that the energy that it could produce was much stronger than that of the Madrigal keystone which wasn't surprising given its size. However, John didn't respond to her and Cortana watched as Halsey told John that it was a serious safety issue for him and for others and she wanted him to stay away from it until she ran some more tests. While Halsey and [[Adun Saly]] studied the artifact, [[Riz-028/Silver|Riz-028]] readied the UNSC forces for their mission to get it onboard the {{UNSCShip|Pioneer}} before the Covenant could figure out that they were on the planet.{{Ref/Film|Id=Reckoning|TV|Episode=[[Reckoning]]}}

As Saly used a laser to try to get through the crystal protecting the keystone, it suddenly let out a massive energy pulse that created a shockwave on the planet's surface and was picked up by the Covenant [[Luminary|Luminaries]] on Madrigal, allowing [[Makee]] to see where it was. As John reentered the cavern, the crystal coating around the keystone shattered, leaving the artifact exposed. Studying the readings on the signal, [[Miranda Keyes/Silver|Miranda Keyes]] determined that the keystone had been communicating with something and theorized that, rather being two halves of the same weapon, it was some other kind of device altogether.{{Ref/Reuse|Reckoning}}

Shortly thereafter, seeking answers about his past, John touched the keystone against Cortana's warnings that it could kill him. Reacting to John's touch, the keystone lit up with symbols, recognized him as a [[Reclaimer]] and caused John to remember touching it as a child and his kidnapping by Halsey and being replaced by a [[flash cloning|clone]].

Shortly thereafter, the Covenant [[Battle of Eridanus II/Silver|attacked]] in search of the artifact. With the ''Pioneer'' destroyed and the other ships too big to get into the canyon, [[Silver Team/Silver|Silver Team]] were ordered to deliver the keystone to Miranda's [[Condor 472|ship]] and then to the ''[[Endymion II]]'' after the Condor was destroyed.

On the trip back to [[Reach/Silver|Reach]], Cortana warned John that he was ill and contact with the Eridanus II keystone had overloaded his system. [[Captain]] [[Jacob Keyes/Silver|Jacob Keyes]] informed John that they had been unable to track the Covenant battlecruiser when it jumped into slipspace over Eridanus II and they had no idea where the Covenant had taken the keystone.

Cortana figured out a way to use the stars in the vision of Halo to determine its location, but it would require John and Makee to touch the keystones together to see it again due to the nature of their connection having shifted.
