'''The Covenant''' is the title of the eighth [[campaign]] level of ''[[Halo 3]]''. This level is significant as it is both the longest of the game and the Covenant's last stand. After the Covenant have been defeated, there is only one last threat the [[United Nations Space Command|UNSC]] and [[Sangheili]] have to deal with: the [[Flood]].

Upon completing it on the [[Normal]], [[Heroic]], or [[Legendary]] difficulties, the player will earn the [[Last Stand (Achievement)|Last Stand]] [[achievement]] and 40 [[Gamerscore]]. Earning over 50,000 points in the campaign [[meta-game]] on this level will give the player the [[Vanguard]] achievement and 10 [[Gamerscore]].

On [[Installation 00|the Ark]], the [[Master Chief]] must stop the [[Prophet of Truth]] from firing the rings. Before reaching Truth, the [[United Nations Space Command|UNSC]] and [[Sangheili]] forces must deactivate three towers powering the defensive barrier protecting the Prophet's [[Installation 00 Citadel|citadel]]. They deactivate two towers, but the initial assault on the third tower fails, resulting in Sergeant Johnson being taken prisoner. The Master Chief joins forces with the Arbiter and the other Sangheili and they launch a joint assault on the third tower. The Chief completes Johnson's task and deactivates the final tower, lowering the barrier.  Before the ''[[Shadow of Intent]]'' can begin its assault, however, the [[Flood]]-infested [[High Charity]] emerges from slipspace and crashes into the Ark, damaging the ''Shadow of Intent'' in the process. The UNSC and Sangheili forces make one final ground assault on the citadel, facing off against a massive vehicular [[Covenant]] force, including two [[Deutoros-pattern Scarab|Scarabs]] at once.  

After defeating the Covenant forces outside, the Master Chief and the Arbiter enter the citadel, only to discover that Truth is moments away from using Sergeant Johnson to activate the Halo Array. In a desperate effort to stop Truth, Miranda Keyes crash lands her Pelican into the citadel's control room and attempts to rescue Johnson.  However, she is killed by Truth who then forces Johnson to activate the Ark. United by the common purpose of stopping the rings, the [[Gravemind]] offers an alliance with the Chief and the Arbiter. With the Flood's help, the Chief and the Arbiter defeat Truth's remaining followers and shut down the Halos. The Arbiter then personally executes Truth, ending the Human-Covenant war at last. Moments later, however, the Gravemind and the Flood turn against them. Johnson escapes in Keyes' Pelican while the Chief and the Arbiter fight their way back outside. Upon escaping, they finally discover [[Cortana]]'s solution to the Flood: [[Installation 08|a newly-constructed Halo ring]] built to replace the destroyed [[Installation 04]]. When fired, the Halo will cleanse the Flood infestation upon the Ark while leaving the rest of the galaxy unharmed. The Chief realizes that in order to fire it, he must rescue Cortana from High Charity as she still possesses the [[Activation Index]] from the first Halo ring.

''Five [[D77H-TCI Pelican|Pelican]]s fly in. They are followed by two [[Sangheili]] [[Ru'swum-pattern Phantom|Phantoms]]. Behind them is the Sangheili {{Class|CAS|assault carrier}} ''[[Shadow of Intent]]''. The view changes to a large energy barrier surrounded by [[Covenant]] forces''

''A patrolling [[Unggoy]] spots the dropships as they approach the mainland. It jumps and cowers.''

*'''Commander Keyes (COM)''': "Good enough. [[Avery Junior Johnson|Johnson]], drop the [[John-117|Chief]] at the first generator, then head to the third. The Elites will punch right down the middle."

''The Pelicans and Phantoms break formation. Two Pelicans, including [[Kilo 023|Hocus' bird]] carrying the Chief, head towards Tower 1. [[Ogab'd-pattern anti-aircraft Wraith|Anti-Air Wraith]] fire erupts around them.''

*'''[[Hocus]] (COM)''': "[[Charlie Foxtrot]]! Tower One approach has active Triple-A!"

''Gunfire hits one of the trailing Pelican's engines, causing it to collide into Hocus' Pelican, tossing its [[M12 Warthog|Warthog]] out onto the ground. The second Pelican swerves out of control and drops its Warthog as well.''

''The Pelican drops out of sight followed by the sound of a crash and a muffled explosion.''

*'''[[ODST]] Sergeant ([[Reynolds]])''': "Pile out! Go, go, go! Up the beach! Kill that Wraith!"

*'''Hocus (COM)''': "Commander, this is ''Kilo 23''. Lost my wingman and our only 'Hog. Over."

''The Master Chief and the ODSTs storm the beach, eliminate the enemy infantry - including a [[Jiralhanae War Chieftain]] and destroy the Anti-Air Wraith.''

*'''[[Shipmaster Rtas 'Vadum]] (COM)''': "I will beat [[Prophet of Truth|the Prophet]]'s shield like a drum. By the time the barrier falls, he will ''beg'' for mercy."

''The ''Shadow of Intent'' starts firing plasma torpedoes at the barrier.''

''A Pelican drops off a [[M274 Mongoose|Mongoose]] and Warthog for the Chief and his Squad. If the existing squad have all died, replacements will also be dropped off.''

*'''Commander Keyes (COM)''': "[[343 Guilty Spark|Spark]] believes Truth can activate the rings at anytime. If he does, [[Earth]], every being in the galaxy... [[Halo Array|Halo]] will kill them ''all''."

''They mount up and head off for the First Tower.''

*'''Commander Keyes (COM)''': "Get to the First Tower. Shut it down."

''As the Chief drives up the hill towards the 1st generator, he sees the Sangheili Phantoms battling with the other Covenant loyalist Phantoms near the second tower.''

''The strike team reaches the First Tower.''

''[[Qavardu Workshop Prowler|Prowlers]], [[Karo'etba-pattern Ghost|Ghosts]], [[Rizsheda-pattern Shade|Shade turrets]], and a [[Zurdo-pattern Wraith|Wraith]] surround the tower, but the squad eventually clears the area.''

''The Chief hurries back to the elevator and heads back down. After clearing another group of [[Kig-Yar]] and Unggoy attacking the Marines holding the lower floor, the Chief and his squad get back outside to their vehicles, or meet up with transport if they have no vehicles left.''

''The Chief and the Marines head back to the beach. Once there, the Chief and his accompanying soldiers meet up with the [[AV-14 Hornet|Hornets]] and other Marines who held the beach.''

''The Chief gets in a Hornet. He assists the other Hornets in clearing the airspace of Tower 2, which is heavily saturated with [[Type-26 Banshee|Banshees]] and a single Phantom.''

''A pair of Anti-Air Wraiths, a standard Wraith, Shade turrets and a large Jiralhanae pack led by a [[Jiralhanae War Chieftain|War Chieftain]] guard the Third Tower. After the [[UNSC]] airborne forces take out the Anti-Air Wraiths, the Sangheili Phantoms arrive and drop off Thel 'Vadam and a group of Sangheili. The Chief uses his Hornet to eliminate any remaining enemy armor and infantry. He then lands the Hornet and joins the Sangheili on the ground. The bodies of Johnson's team litter the tower's entrance, but Johnson himself is nowhere to be found.''

''Marines from the Pelicans and Hornets follow up, and secure the perimeter. The Chief, 'Vadam, and the Sangheili push on inside the tower, encountering a small pack of Jiralhanae at the doorway. Inside, they battle a swarm of [[Yanme'e]] and a [[Mgalekgolo]] pair. Eventually clearing out the opposition, the team moves deeper inside and encounters a larger pack of Jiralhanae, followed by another swarm of Yanme'e. The Chief, 'Vadam and their allies overcome the defenders and secure the bottom floor and the elevator.''

'''Vadam and his Sangheili hold the lower level while the Master Chief heads up. The Chief secures the top floor, after defeating a [[Jiralhanae War Chieftain]] wielding a [[Pek-pattern plasma cannon|plasma turret]] and a squad of [[Jiralhanae Stalker]]s.''

''A massive [[slipspace]] rupture suddenly appears directly above. [[High Charity]] emerges and plummets down to the Ark.''

''Debris from High Charity strikes right through the ''Shadow of Intent's'' hull. A [[Flood dispersal pod]] then breaks apart in midair. Part of the pod crashes through the window right above the Chief. It stops as it hits the elevator window, glowing eerily. The Chief raises his rifle and prepares to engage the enemy he knows too well.''  

''Flood forms swarm towards the lone Spartan, infecting the corpses of the Jiralhanae in the room. After eliminating the hostiles in the area, the Chief takes the elevator back down.''

*'''343 Guilty Spark (COM)''': "The Ark is out of range of all the active installations! Priority: We must contain this outbreak, before-"

*'''Commander Keyes (COM)''': "No! First, we stop Truth. ''Then'' we deal with the Flood."

''The Chief links up with the Sangheili and the Arbiter, who are trying to hold back encroaching Flood forms. After clearing the room, they head back outside, eliminating more Flood forces (including several [[Flood carrier form|carrier forms]]). Arriving outside, they assist Marines engaged in combat with the Flood. A Sangheili Phantom arrives to pick up Thel 'Vadam. The Phantom's side gunner helps clear out any remaining Flood.''

'''Vadam takes 343 Guilty Spark with him.  Meanwhile, Pelicans drop a [[M12G1 Gauss Warthog|Gauss Warthog]], a Mongoose, and a [[M808 Main Battle Tank|Scorpion tank]] for the assault on the Citadel. The Chief, the Marines, and the remaining Sangheili mount up.''

*'''Commander Keyes (COM)''': "Shipmaster's carrier is out of commission, Chief. I need ''you'' to take down Truth. The Flood's just going to put pressure on him; accelerate his plans. Punch through the cliffs! Get inside that Citadel!"

''The Assault Team gets through the snowy cliffs, where they encounter a few small Covenant emplacements. In the distance, [[Type-26 Banshee|Banshees]] and [[AV-14 Hornet|Hornets]] are battling each other.''

''The assault team advances across the cliff, facing infantry, Ghosts, Shade turrets, [[Covenant watchtower]]s, Prowlers, and a Wraith. Once the team breaks through the Covenant defenses, they meet up with two Hornet gunships near the route down into the clearing.''

''The Master Chief takes a Hornet and makes his way to the [[Installation 00 Citadel|Citadel]] (alternatively, he can stay in whatever vehicle he's currently in). Two [[Deutoros-pattern Scarab|Scarabs]] drop down from above.''

''The Chief engages the Scarabs. The Assault Team backs him up: The Scorpion tank fires from a far range, while the Warthog and the Mongoose move about under the Scarabs to assist Chief in taking their legs down. They are soon joined by a second Warthog. The Pelican and the other Hornets engage the Scarabs from the air. Several enemy Ghosts, Banshees and another Prowler defend the Scarabs.''

''A Sangheili Phantom decloaks and arrives at the platform leading to the entrance of the [[Installation 00 Citadel|Citadel]], dropping off Thel 'Vadam and 343 Guilty Spark. Any surviving enemy Banshees will flee at this point.''

''Spark activates a light bridge. The Chief and 'Vadam cross it and enter the Citadel alone. The door they entered through closes and bolts up behind them. The entrance is a large hallway with viewscreens mounted along the walls.''

''Master Chief and 'Vadam discover an elevator with a screen in front of it showing Sergeant Johnson held aloft by a Jiralhanae. Johnson punches the Jiralhanae in the face, to no effect.''

*'''Master Chief Petty Officer John-117''': "Not close enough."

''He turns back to the Ark's activation console and speaks quietly.''  

[[File:Truth and Johnson.png|300px|thumb|Truth talking to Johnson as Keyes' Pelican charges into the Citadel.]]

''Fade back in on the Control Center.  Mere seconds have passed. A [[Jiralhanae Captain]] gets up, but Keyes blasts it with her [[M90 shotgun|shotgun]].''

''Keyes draws a [[M6G magnum|pistol]] and aims her weapons both ways.''

''She reluctantly aims the pistol at Johnson. He staggers towards her.''

''A Jiralhanae Captain restrains Johnson, who struggles, horrified. Keyes falls to her knees, collapses and dies with five glowing spikes in her back. Truth walks on screen gingerly holding a [[Paegaas Workshop Spiker|Spiker]] in one hand. He looks down at Keyes.''

*'''Prophet of Truth''': "Your [[Forerunner|forefathers]] wisely set aside their compassion..."

''He forces Johnson's hand down on the panel with a smug look. Johnson, still overcome with grief and shock, doesn't resist. Instantly, the Control Terminal begins to change and heighten. Truth raises his arms in triumph. The scene moves down the corridor, as six out of the seven holographic Halo rings light up one by one ([[Installation 04]] has not yet been replaced, so its ring does not light up). At the end of the corridor, the Master Chief and Thel 'Vadam emerge from the lift. Two Flood [[tank form]]s drop from above. The Master Chief draws his [[MA5C assault rifle|assault rifle]] and aims, and 'Vadam activates his [[Type-1 energy sword|energy sword]].''

*'''[[Gravemind]] (through the tank forms)''': "Do ''not'' shoot, but ''listen!'' Let me lead you safely to ''our'' foe. Only ''you'' can halt what he has set in motion."

''The pair lower their weapons cautiously. [[Pod infector]]s scurry between their feet toward their common enemy. The Master Chief and 'Vadam look at each other, obviously not trusting the Flood, but knowing that they have no other choice.''

''The Master Chief, the Arbiter, and the Flood begin their final assault on Truth. Three bridges stand between them and the Control Center. Resistance on the first bridge consists of Unggoy and Kig-Yar infantry led by a single [[Jiralhanae Captain]], backed up by [[Unggoy Heavy|Unggoy Heavies]].  The Chief and his allies quickly defeat these enemies and cross the first bridge.''

*'''Prophet of Truth (Hologram)''': "How could I have known the Parasite would follow?! Undoubtedly this is the Heretics' doing! A final, ''bitter'' curse. Clear evidence of [[Age of Conflict|''treachery'' long hidden]]!"

''At the second bridge, the Chief and 'Vadam encounter the final Covenant defenders - including a [[Jiralhanae]] [[Jiralhanae Chieftain|Chieftain]] wielding a [[Gravity hammer (fiction)|gravity hammer]] and his [[Jiralhanae Bodyguard|Bodyguards]], with Jump Pack Brutes as the main counter-attack force (on higher difficulties, the Jiralhanae are supported by a pair of [[Unggoy Heavy|Unggoy Heavies]] armed with [[Pez'tk-pattern fuel rod gun|fuel rod guns]]). With the help of the Flood, the Master Chief and the Arbiter defeat the last of Truth's followers. They cross the second bridge.''

''In the second room, Truth's holograms broadcast a final message.''

*'''Prophet of Truth (Hologram)''': "So far are we along the path, that I must strain to hear the clumsy patter of their pursuit. Know this, my brothers: they may foul the way with their charred and broken bones, but they ''will not'' stop the [[Covenant religion|Journey]]."

''Resistance on the third bridge has already been crushed by the Flood. The Chief and the Arbiter step over the bodies of fallen Jiralhanae, Unggoy, and combat forms and finally reach the Control Center. A large gap is now all that stands between them and Truth.  The Chief activates a light bridge, allowing them to cross.''

''The Master Chief and Thel 'Vadam cross the light bridge. They pass by an inert Flood corpse, and come across a distraught Sergeant Johnson who is resting Miranda Keyes' lifeless body on his lap by her head next to the Pelican. The pair stop and stare into Keyes' empty eyes, until Johnson closes them gently.''

''At this moment, 'Vadam draws his energy sword back and activates it, ready to kill his former leader. The Master Chief points his assault rifle at Truth in case he is completely taken over by the Flood.''

*'''Thel 'Vadam''': "I ''will'' have my revenge. On a Prophet, not a plague!"

*'''Prophet of Truth''': "My feet tread the Path. I ''shall'' become a god!"

''The Chief approaches the Ark's control panel, ready to deactivate it.''

*'''Thel 'Vadam''': "And so… you must be silenced."

[[File:TruthDeath-large.jpg|300px|thumb|The Arbiter kills the Prophet of Truth.]]

'''Vadam stabs his sword through Truth's back. It goes clean through him; the two points of the energy sword pierce through his chest as he writhes and screams in pain. Flood spores shoot out of his mouth and the infection lets out a pitiful squeal as both it and its host die. The last of the [[Hierarchs]] is dead.''

''The Arbiter pulls his sword out and lets Truth's corpse fall to the floor. He lets out a roar of triumph and deactivates his sword. He then turns to the Chief. The Chief gives the Sangheili a nod, acknowledging him for ending the life of the Prophet who declared war on humanity; they then turn to see Johnson carrying Keyes' body into the Pelican. There is a moment of silence as they realize that their victory has not been without loss, but the [[Human-Covenant War]] is finally over.''

''Suddenly, the ground begins to tremble, and massive tentacles rise up all around them. Chief wields his assault rifle and 'Vadam reactivates his sword. They both stare up at the tentacles which are now reaching high above them. The Gravemind laughs maniacally.''

''Johnson leaps into the Pelican's cockpit and starts to take off, heading for the hole in the window that Keyes made earlier. The Chief climbs onto the control panel of the Ark and jumps up, grabbing onto the departing Pelican's landing gear. 'Vadam deactivates his sword and grabs the Chief's hand. Just before the Pelican can get out, the tentacles knock both of them off. The Pelican spirals out of control and falls out of sight. 'Vadam and the Chief land in a heap on the Citadel's floor. The Gravemind's tentacles swerve around them and multiple Flood forms can be heard approaching.''

*'''Gravemind''': "Now the gate has been unlatched, headstones pushed aside… corpses shift and offer room, a fate you ''must'' abide!"

''The Chief and 'Vadam get back up. 'Vadam reactivates his sword, and the Chief takes aim with his assault rifle. They come back-to-back.''

''For a moment, the tentacles appear poised to strike. Then - as if sensing a threat (possibly the Sentinels) - the Gravemind suddenly retreats, leaving its minions behind to deal with the pair. Two combat forms jump up from behind the Control Panel.''

''The Chief and 'Vadam kill the two combat forms and cross back over the light bridge. Both heroes fight their way through hordes of Flood, which have betrayed them now that the Halo rings have been deactivated. Fortunately, [[Sentinels]] have arrived and are fighting the Flood.''

''The Chief reenters the room where Truth's first message was broadcasted.''

*'''Cortana (Cortana Moment)''': "I'm a thief...but I keep [[Activation Index|what I steal]]."

''The Chief lands at the bottom of the shaft, landing in a room not unlike the entrances to the three shield towers. He looks beside him as the Arbiter comes down, and then stands up. A flickering, spooky image of Cortana appears in the hallway, running. She starts to turn the corner and disappears, after a split second. The Chief casually walks around the corner as though amused by Cortana's antics, but 'Vadam is confused.''

''A view screen slides open, the Chief and 'Vadam step out onto a balcony to watch as a massive structure rises up out of thick fog. It's [[Installation 08|a Halo ring]], incomplete, rising from inside the Ark's [[Foundry (location)|Foundry]]. Cortana's plan is becoming clear.''

*'''John-117''': "When did you know?"

''He flies enthusiastically around the Chief and 'Vadam and then flies off towards his new Halo now talking to himself.''

*'''343 Guilty Spark''': "Though it will take time to fabricate an [[Activation Index]], I will see to the letter that..." ''(he flies too far away)''

''They both turn to look at the crashed [[High Charity]] in the distance, realizing that Cortana still has the Activation Index required to activate the new Halo ring.''

[[File:DJC-Mismatch.jpg|thumb|A dead Brute with a [[BR55HB SR Battle Rifle|Battle Rifle]].]]

*If a weapon is dropped on either side of the two elevators the player will be unable to pick it up again, however ammunition can be retrieved from the weapon. However, if the player fires the weapon, the player can retrieve it by quickly holding the RB button when they sees the prompt.

*At Rally Point Alpha, on the island where the Phantom deploys the Anti-air Wraith, one can trick the game into believing that one is stranded on the island. Then the game will spawn a Hornet piloted by a Marine Pilot who will land it on the island and offer it to the player. The player can have infinite Marine Pilots and an infinite number of Pilot controlled Hornets by exploiting this, causing the map to overload.

*The player can ride in certain Pelicans in this level by bringing their Hornet right up to the back of the Pelican, getting out, and holding "RB". If one does it correctly, one will be riding the Pelican.

*It is possible to get into the second tower that the Arbiter disabled using the [[Time travel glitch]]. The tower's interior is just an empty space with nothing inside, not even floors or walls as one can see [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_cvV8T7mELU here].

*The [[Phantom riding glitch]] can be performed on this level, making the player disappear in the level.

*The [[Two Arbiters glitch]] can be performed on this level.

*The player can jump over the chasm where they is supposed to activate a light bridge and reach Truth by using a Gravity Hammer and a Plasma Grenade. By grenade jumping backwards and using the Hammer at the peak of the jump, the player can be propelled across the chasm, but even if they lands safely, the bridge will strangely activate on its own, and the cutscene will play.

*After the cutscene where [[Thel 'Vadam|Arbiter]] has killed [[Prophet of Truth|Truth]], if the player melees the Prophet, the dead body will fall through the platform.

*In the first cutscene, when the [[M12 Warthog|Warthog]] is knocked from the Pelican carrying [[John-117]] during the beach approach, it is intact and undamaged when it hits the ground, but when the player walks up to it in gameplay, it is destroyed and in pieces, most notably with the wheels missing. Also in the first cutscene, the Warthogs attached to the Pelicans are clearly troop transports, yet when the player surveys their wreckage during gameplay, the models actually have destroyed LAAGs.  

===Easter eggs===

{{Main|Easter eggs}}

*The [[Halo 3 skulls#Thunderstorm|Thunderstorm]] and [[Halo 3 skulls#IWHBYD (I Would Have Been Your Daddy)|IWHBYD]] Skulls can be found on this level.

*This level is the last level in which the player fights the Covenant (excluding the Easter Egg [[Grunt]] on the final level).  It is also one of only four levels that is cut into three rally points, rather than two—the others are the previous levels, ''[[The Ark (level)|The Ark]]'', ''[[Sierra 117]]'', and ''[[Crow's Nest]]''.

*This is one of the only two levels where the player can achieve [[Too Close to the Sun]], the other being ''[[The Storm (level)|The Storm]]''.

*This is the only level in which friendly dropships can be destroyed. The two Separatist Phantoms that appear outside the third tower can be destroyed. Their door-mounted Plasma Cannons can also be blown off from the ground, and are very useful against the Drones inside the third tower.

**Attacking your Flood allies will not cause them to turn against you, nor will the Arbiter react except for a few comments.  

*This level and ''[[Floodgate]]'' are the only levels in ''[[Halo 3]]'' to have [[Sangheili]] allies besides [[Thel 'Vadam]].

*[[Drive an AA Wraith|Hijacking the first Anti-Air Wraith in the level]] will make progressing up to the first tower a lot easier; one will also be able to bombard the Covenant forces hiding in the hallway just before the tower's entrance. A video of this can be found here: [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QoI0Ap9fUdU AA Wraith Glitch].

*This is the first level in which the player can use the [[Spartan Laser]].

*At the point where the player reunites with the Arbiter and 343 Guilty Spark after defeating the [[Deutoros-pattern Scarab|Scarabs]], if there are any surviving [[Covenant]] forces nearby, 343 Guilty Spark will attack them with the same energy beam he uses against the player in the [[Control Room]] [[Halo (Halo 3 level)|later]] in the game.

*Upon entering the Citadel (after one defeated the two Scarabs), the Cortana Moment the player experiences before the cutscene is projected on the holoscreens in mirror image to what is in their visor.

*During the final fight with the Covenant, the door leading to the room that leads to Truth can only be opened when the Chieftain goes down.
