In [[2558#March|March 2558]], he led [[Battle of Ealen IV|an attack]] on a Sangheili-[[Jiralhanae]] peace conference on [[Ealen IV]]. When informed by [[Tek]] of the envoy's retreat into a repair depot, he suggested they wait and let the Jiralhanae turn on the others. However, Clayton suggested he should hurry, so they could finish before the envoy's [[capital ship]]s responded.
