Even into her adult life, Parisa kept with her a picture of herself and John on a beach at [[Lake Gusev]] on their homeworld of [[Eridanus II]]; taken some two weeks before John was abducted into the [[SPARTAN-II program]], as a [[keepsake|lucky charm]]. She believed, like many others, that John had died not very long after the picture was taken. In fact, he was replaced with a [[Flash cloning|flash clone]] to hide his disappearance, said clone dying soon after. | Even into her adult life, Parisa kept with her a picture of herself and John on a beach at [[Lake Gusev]] on their homeworld of [[Eridanus II]]; taken some two weeks before John was abducted into the [[SPARTAN-II program]], as a [[keepsake|lucky charm]].

She had stated that after John saved her life from walking out into the lake too far, he promised to marry her and keep her safe. Years later she said that although it was silly and John was "dead", she intended to hold him to that promise. | She had stated that after John saved her life from walking out into the lake too far, he promised to marry her and keep her safe.

During the [[Battle of Mombasa]] in [[2552#October|October 2552]], she was in command of First Platoon of Kilo Company, part of [[E2-BAG/1/7]]. She was coordinating the city's defense effort in a command post in a hotel next to [[Beria Plaza]] when John-117 arrived to the command post with a squad of Marines to assess the situation. | During the [[Battle of Mombasa]] in [[2552#October|October 2552]], she was in command of First Platoon of Kilo Company, part of [[E2-BAG/1/7]].

At the time, Parisa was holding the picture of herself and John as children. Just as John was about to tell the lieutenant to not bring personal items to a combat zone, he recognized the picture. Parisa, obviously not recognizing John because of his [[MJOLNIR Powered Assault Armor/Mark VI|armor]], explained the story behind the picture to him. Despite the sudden flood of memories, John couldn't bring himself to reveal who he was, knowing that doing so would be detrimental to his own morale and the morale of their soldiers, as well as being a massive security breach for [[Office of Naval Intelligence|ONI]]. Instead he maintained his stoic façade and the two of them began planning a counterattack to the Covenant. | At the time, Parisa was holding the picture of herself and John as children.

''Palace Hotel'' is of debatable canonicity because it greatly contradicts the events, characters, and locations shown in the ''Halo 2'' level ''[[Metropolis]]'', on which the story is based. Parisa's unit from the short story (Kilo Company, E2-BAG/1/7) corresponds to A Company from ''Metropolis''. In-game dialog suggests that A Company's lieutenant | ''Palace Hotel'' is of debatable canonicity because it greatly contradicts the events, characters, and locations shown in the ''Halo 2'' level ''[[Metropolis]]'', on which the story is based. Parisa's unit from the short story (Kilo Company, E2-BAG/1/7) corresponds to A Company from ''Metropolis''.
