''{Fade in on the broken pieces of [[Installation 04]], still burning. Groups of [[Covenant]] {{Class|CCS|Battlecruiser}}s prowl among them.}'' | |||
''{An [[Assault Carrier]] flies by. The camera pans with it to a giant [[Covenant]] structure.}'' | |||
'''[[Covenant]] Holy City, [[High Charity]]. [[Age of Reclamation|Ninth Age of Reclamation]]''' | |||
''{Close up of [[High Charity]]. Hundreds of [[Covenant]] ships swarm around it.}'' | |||
''{Fade to a ledge across from tiers of stadium-like seats; several [[Banshee|Banshees]] fly around. The camera slowly zooms toward a door on the back of the ledge.}'' | |||
'''[[Arbiter (character)|Elite Commander]] (voice over):''' "There was only one ship." | |||
''{Fade in to the [[Council Chamber]]. Rows of [[Honor Guard]] [[Elite|Elites]] stand at attention. A single [[Zealot]] stands at the end, facing two [[High Prophet|High Prophets]].}'' | |||
'''[[Prophet of Truth]] (voice over):''' "One? Are you sure?" | |||
'''Elite Commander (voice over):''' "Yes. They called it the ''[[Pillar of Autumn]]''." | |||
''(We see stadium seats filled with Elite and [[Prophet]] Councilors. They mutter amongst themselves.}'' | |||
'''[[Prophet of Mercy]]:''' "Why was it not destroyed, with the rest of their fleet?" | |||
'''Elite Commander:''' "They fled, as we set fire to [[Reach|their planet]]." | |||
[[Image:Reach.jpg|150px|right]] | |||
''{Flashback: the ''Pillar of Autumn'' flees Reach as Covenant ships [[glassing|glass]] the [[Reach|planet]]}'' | |||
'''Elite Commander (voice over):''' "But I followed with all the ships in my command." | |||
''{Flashback: a Covenant Battle Cruiser approaches [[Installation 04|Halo]], several dozen smaller ships are already in orbit of it.}'' | |||
'''Prophet of Regret (voice over):''' "When you first saw Halo, were you blinded by its majesty?" | |||
'''Elite Commander (voice over):''' "Blinded?" | |||
'''Prophet of Regret (voice over):''' "Paralyzed? Dumbstruck?" | |||
'''Elite Commander (voice over):''' "No." | |||
''{End flashback. We see Regret is not actually here, but rather speaking through a holographic image in his likeness. Next to it is the Prophet of Mercy.}'' | |||
'''Prophet of Regret:''' "Yet the humans were able to evade your ships, land on the Sacred Ring, (angrily) and desecrate it with their filthy footsteps!" | |||
'''Elite Commander:''' "Noble Hierarchs, surely you understand that once the [[Flood|parasite]] attacked-" | |||
''{The Council members mutter angrily. The Commander looks around at them.}'' | |||
'''Prophet of Mercy:''' "There will be order in this Council!" | |||

''(The [[Prophet of Truth]] comes forward and raises his hands. The room falls into complete silence.}'' | |||
'''[[Prophet of Truth]]:''' "You were right to focus your attention on the [[Flood]]. But this Demon, this "[[Master Chief]]"... | |||
''{Flashback: the destruction of Halo}'' | |||
'''Elite Commander (voice over):''' "By the time I learned the Demon's intent, there was nothing I could do." | |||
''{End flashback. The Prophet Councilors stand up and yell angrily. Elite Councilors mutter to each other. [[Tartarus]], standing nearby, chuckles to himself.}'' | |||
'''Prophet of Regret:''' " ''{whispers to Truth}'' Noble Prophet of Truth, this has gone on long enough. Make an example of this bungler, the Council demands it." | |||
''{Truth holds up a hand, silencing Regret.}'' | |||
'''Prophet of Truth:''' "You are one of our most treasured instruments. Long have you lead your [[Fleet of Particular Justice|fleet]] with honor and distinction. But your inability to safeguard Halo ... was a colossal failure." | |||
'''[[Prophet of Objection]]:''' "'' {Stands up and shakes fist} ''Nay, it was heresy!" | |||
''{The Councilors yell. The Commander looks back and forth between them.}'' | |||
'''Elite Commander:''' "I will continue my campaign against the humans!" | |||
'''Prophet of Truth:''' "No! You will not." | |||
''{Truth glances at Tartarus, and the [[Brute]] [[Chieftain]] barks a command. Two Brutes approach the Commander and try to grab him, but he shakes them off and he starts walking to his fate willingly. They escort him out.}'' | |||
'''Prophet of Truth (voice over):''' "Soon the [[Great Journey]] shall begin. (pause) But when it does, the weight of your heresy will stay your feet," ''{close up of Truth}'' "And you shall be left behind." | |||
''{Fade in, Truth's crown's holographic Halo fades into [[Earth]]'s moon.}'' | |||
''{Pan down to three orbital [[MAC]] stations in Earth's orbit. A few [[UNSC]] ships fly past.}'' | |||
'''Earth Defense Platform, [[Cairo Station|Cairo]]. 10.20.2552 ([[Military Calendar]])''' | |||
''{Cut to a close-up of the nearest platform.}'' | |||
'''[[Master Gunnery Sergeant (Armory)|Master Gunnery Sergeant]] (voice over):''' "Your plating was about to fail, there's viscosity throughout the [[Hydrostatic Gel|gel]] layer... | |||
''(Cut to the armory of Cairo Station. The officer handles equipment on a table.}'' | |||
'''Master Gunnery Sergeant:''' "Optics, totally fried. And let's not even talk about the power supply." ''{we see the Chief's new helmet on the table}'' "You know how expensive this gear is, son?" | |||
''{The camera pans up the Chief's body, showing off his new armor. He fits his helmet into place just in time to block the camera's view of his face.}'' | |||
'''Master Chief:''' "Tell that to the Covenant." | |||
