| {{Article quote|Through the portal, [[the Weapon]] and [[John-117|Master Chief]] arrive at a [[Forerunner]] location called the [[Repository (location)|Repository]]. They learn that [[Fernando Esparza|the Pilot]] has been taken to the [[House of Reckoning (location)|House of Reckoning]] — stronghold of the [[Banished]] [[War Chief]], [[Escharum]] — to bait them into a final confrontation. The bait is accepted, and they fight their way out of the Repository. Along their advance, they discovery fragments and memories of [[Cortana]], revealing the truth behind the Weapon's creation: that she is, in fact, an exact copy of Cortana, subject to the same weaknesses as her predecessor. Fearing an inevitable fate, the Weapon restores her deletion protocols, and asks the Chief to complete his original mission. He refuses — there is still work to do. The duo proceed to the House of Reckoning, where the Pilot, and Escharum, await their arrival.}} | | {{Expand-section}} |

| |
|
| |
| ''The Chief stares down slightly.''
| |

| |
|
| |

| |
|
| |
| *'''Weapon''': ''"I'm her?"''
| |
|
| |
| *'''John-117''': "Yes. An exact copy. It was the only option we had left."
| |
|
| |
| *'''Weapon''': ''(horrified)'' "My routines... systems..."
| |
|
| |
| *'''John-117''': "All copies. Halsey removed any information that could compromise you. You're her. If we'd never met."
| |
|
| |
| *'''Weapon''': ''(voice trembling)'' "Will I d-do what she did?" ''(points to where Cortana was standing)'' "Become what she became? Am I that already?"
| |
|
| |
| ''Scene rotates around her so that the Chief is now seen staring down at her.''
| |
|
| |
| *'''John-117''': "My mission was to ensure that doesn't happen. It still is."
| |
|
| |
| *'''Weapon''': ''(mortified)'' "I'm sorry."
| |
|

| *'''Weapon''': "I'm so sorry. That can't be me! It can't be."
| |
|
| |
| ''She kneels there in silence as she contemplates her existence.''
| |
|
| |
| *'''Weapon''': "I shouldn't be here. Your mission was to destroy me."
| |
|
| |
| ''She closes her eyes and a soft beeping sound is heard.''
| |
|

| |
|
| |
| *'''Weapon''': "Whatever happens: save [[Fernando Esparza|him]]. He needs you. You're all he has."
| |
|
| |
| ''She closes her eyes, ready to accept her fate.''
| |
|
| |
| ''Suddenly the scene zooms out, showing the Master Chief now holding her in the palm of his hand, staring down at her.''
| |
|
| |
| *'''John-117''': "We do it together."
| |
|
| |
| ''The Weapon opens her eyes, shocked.''
| |
|
| |
| *'''Weapon''': "How...?"
| |
|
| |
| ''She slowly stands back up and turns around to look up at him.''
| |
|
| |
| *'''Weapon''': "How can you trust me?"
| |
|
| |
| *'''John-117''': "I don't... but I want to."
| |
|
| |
| ''Scene shifts back to the Weapon as she gives him a look of understanding. Her avatar then vanishes into the Chief's hand.''

|
| |
| '''{''Gameplay''}'''
| |
|
| |
| *'''Weapon''': "Okay, let's go save him."
| |

|
| ''A door opens and a Brute Chieftain armed with a plasma cannon storms into the room.''
| |
|
| |
|
| *'''Jiralhanae Chieftain''': "[[Fernando Esparza|Your friend]] will die in agony, Spartan! Just like the rest of the humans on this Ring!"
| | |
|
| |
|
| ''The Chief kills the Chieftain. More Banished troops attack. The Chief manages to kill them too. He then exits the room and proceeds towards the surface, killing a few more Banished and Skimmers in his path.''

| ==Trivia==
| |
| ===Miscellaneous===
| |
| *The [[Halo Infinite skulls#Grunt Birthday Party|Grunt Birthday Party skull]] is found on this level. Unlike other skulls in the game, it requires the player to perform a series of action before it spawns at location guarded by multiple [[Special Operations Sangheili]].
| |
| ===Mistakes===
| |
| *When the Whispers say, "When the soul lies down in that grass" the subtitles incorrectly read as, "''Where'' the soul lies down in that grass".
| |
| *During this level, it's possible to hear one of the Brutes declare that the [[Reformation]] has begun, despite the Reformation actually having been ended at the end of the [[The Command Spire|previous level]]. It's possible that the Brute is unaware of that the Chief has already disabled the Spires. It's also possible that the Brute is simply referring to the reconstruction of the Silent Auditorium, which the Weapon notes is still ongoing despite the Spire network being disabled.
