The '''Temple''' was a [[Forerunner]] structure located in the center of a large artificial lake on [[Installation 05]]. The structure was occupied by the [[Prophet of Regret]] during his brief stay on the installation. The only way to the temple without a dropship or aircraft was by taking a route through a series of underwater tunnels, over [[bridge (structure)|bridges]] and by traveling on [[anti-gravity gondola]]s across a system of towers and other structures across the lake that surrounded the structure. The purpose of the temple structure was never discovered before it was [[Glassing|glassed]] shortly after the [[John-117|Master Chief]] [[Assassination of the Prophet of Regret|assassinated]] the Prophet of Regret.{{Ref/Level|Id=Regret|H2|Regret (Halo 2 level)|Regret}}

In this large room, there were four doors in the walls which led to small rooms. There were walkways and three levels. On the ground level there were various blocks and a pond. At the far end there was a raised platform where, in [[2552]], the [[Prophet of Regret]] conducted his sermons. Regret was slain in this room by [[John-117]] in November 2552,{{Ref/Reuse|Regret}} and shortly after the temple was destroyed by the [[excavation beam]] of Regret's {{Pattern|Syfon|assault carrier}}, ''[[Solemn Penance]]''.{{Ref/Novel|Halo: Age of Retribution}}

Following his retreat from [[Earth]], the [[Prophet of Regret]]'s {{Class|CAS|assault carrier}} ''[[Solemn Penance]]'' exited [[slipspace]] near [[Installation 05]]. The Prophet immediately deployed ground troops to the surface of the [[Halo Array|ring]] while he situated himself in the temple and immediately began his sermons. He was supported by a large number of [[Sangheili Honor Guardsman|Sangheili Honor Guardsmen]] and various other Covenant troops.  The exterior was fortified with [[Eeo'Pimu-pattern Shade|Shade]] turrets.{{Ref/Reuse|Regret}}

Unfortunately for Regret, his ship had been followed through slipspace by the [[UNSC]] {{Class|Stalwart|light frigate}} {{UNSCShip|In Amber Clad}}. Upon arrival at the Halo ring, the ship deployed a large force of [[Orbital Drop Shock Trooper|ODST]]s along with [[Spartan-II program|Spartan]] [[John-117]] into the surrounding area with the objective of [[Assassination of the Prophet of Regret|capturing or killing]] the Prophet Hierarch.{{Ref/Reuse|DeltaHalo}} Despite the Covenant's best efforts, the UNSC force managed to clear the ruins around the lake and eventually the other structures in the lake were cleared of Covenant forces. With the human "[[Demons|demon]]" closing in on his location, Regret readied all forces in the temple for the Spartan's inevitable arrival.{{Ref/Reuse|Regret}}

The Master Chief eventually made it to the temple himself, clearing out the many Shade turrets on the exterior before moving in to the central chamber itself to confront the Prophet. The Covenant holy city [[High Charity]] along with its vast [[High Charity defense fleet|defense fleet]] exited slipspace above the temple. The fleet deployed multiple waves of [[Kez'katu-pattern Phantom|Phantom]] dropships to reinforce Regret, but these were ultimately called back by the [[Prophet of Truth]].{{Ref/Reuse|Regret}}{{Ref/Novel|Id=BCC15|BC|Chapter=16}}
