'''Reth''' was one of the [[Kig-yar]] rebels who settled on [[the Rubble]] with [[Human|human]] refugees. He was the leader of the Kig-yar forces at the Rubble, and bred an army of [[Unggoy]] on the surface of a planet in the same system, [[Metisette]]. | |||
'''Reth''' | ==Description== | ||
When the ship he had been serving on happened upon the Rubble, Reth received a communication from [[Peter Bonifacio]] to engage in trade.<ref>'''Halo: The Cole Protocol''', ''page 222''</ref> Keeping this a secret from his [[Shipmistress]], Reth took the recording to ''[[High Charity]]'', where he presented it to the [[Prophet of Truth|High Prophet of Truth]]. Realizing they could use this to map the human population, Truth authorized Reth to begin trading Covenant weapons with the humans, promising that the Kig-yar could keep the Rubble, which would be ideal for Kig-yar nests.<ref>'''Halo: The Cole Protocol''', ''page 236''</ref> Reth then returned and offered to trade weapons modified for humans in exchange for slipspace drives. Reth intended to install the slipspace drives onto [[Kig-yar raider]]s built at the Rubble, something Truth had denied him. Bonifacio then began selling the weapons to [[Insurrection]]ists back in the [[Inner Colonies]], which allowed the Covenant to track them. As part of his plan for gaining control of the Rubble, Reth began bringing Unggoy to Metisette, which had methane in the atmosphere, and bred an army in a place called [[the Redoubt]].<ref>'''Halo: The Cole Protocol''', ''page 197''</ref> The Redoubt was a Unggoy paradise with piece meal construction around a liquid methane waterfall. The institution of the [[Cole Protocol]] made taking such weapons back to the Colonies a [[Death penalty|capital offense]], which hindered their use, but Reth soon began conspiring with Bonifacio to gain the stellar coordinates for [[Earth]]. | |||
However, some of the modified weapons made their way back to Kig-yar black markets in ''High Charity'', and gained the attention of the [[Prophet of Regret|High Prophet of Regret]]. Unaware of Truth's role in their creation, Regret dispatched [[Thel 'Vadam|Thel Vadamee]] to hunt down those responsible.<ref>'''Halo: The Cole Protocol''', ''page 146''</ref> 'Vadamee's ship, the ''[[Retribution's Thunder]]'', was attacked by the Kig-yar ship, ''[[A Psalm Every Day]]'', when the [[Jiralhanae]] onboard overthrew the Kig-yar shipmistress, they suddenly attacked with boarding craft, and the ship left through a slipstream vortex. Thel scuttled the ship, when Jackal forces were onboard, and he and four of his bridge crew survived the explosion. They were captured by the Kig-yar, and managed to escape. When Reth was believed to be a rebel, 'Vadamee, [[Zhar (Sangheili)|Zhar]], [[Saal]], and [[Veer]] kidnapped him from [[The Redoubt]] for information.<ref>'''Halo: The Cole Protocol''', ''pages 214-217''</ref> Saal then tortured him, refusing to believe that he was following the orders of the [[Hierarchs]] since they were under conflicting orders.<ref>'''Halo: The Cole Protocol''', ''page 227''</ref> | |||
Reth escaped imprisonment by fooling his Unggoy guards into releasing him. Knowing that the Jiralhanae would return to ''High Charity'' soon, Reth decided to begin the invasion to show that he was a loyal follower.<ref>'''Halo: The Cole Protocol''', ''page 236''</ref> Unfortunately, the [[Spartan-II program|Spartan-II]] [[Gray Team]] was in the Rubble, and stole the data from Bonifacio, and [[Lieutenant]] [[Jacob Keyes]] used the asteroids of the Rubble to destroy the Redoubt. Reth was killed while trying to escape as the Rubble crashed into the Redoubt on Metisette.<ref>'''Halo: The Cole Protocol''', ''page 328''</ref> | Reth escaped imprisonment by fooling his Unggoy guards into releasing him.
