Yprikushma and her science team discovered the ancient being known as the [[Primordial]] buried within a desolate planet at the edges of the [[Milky Way|galaxy]] 40 years before the last major conflict with the Forerunners. She recognized the entity's scientific potential and brought it to [[Charum Hakkor]] in a [[stasis capsule]] for study and questioning.<ref name="pri237"/> According to Yprikushma, the information gained from the Primordial saved billions of human lives in humanity's conflict with the Flood; however, her sworn opponent, [[Forthencho]], disputed this, claiming it was the humans themselves who came up with the "solution" to the [[Flood]] and arguing that the Primordial caused the downfall of humanity's civilization by gravely demoralizing them.<ref>'''Halo: Primordium''', ''page 227''</ref> | |||
Yprikushma | Yprikushma also traced humanity's origins to [[Earth|Erde-Tyrene]], a source of much dispute to the ancient humans, as humanity had lost most of their records during a technological dark age in their ancient past. Others, such as Forthencho, believed humanity's origins to be elsewhere, having witnessed ruins built by humans on many other worlds. Regardless of the opposition, Yprikushma's discovery of humanity's true homeworld gained her the lofty status she held during the war with the Forerunners. In addition, it was her idea to analyze Forerunner technology and tactics gained from humanity's early conflicts with the Forerunners - technology that bought humanity decades of time against the numerically overwhelming and technologically superior Forerunner military.<ref name="pri237"/> | ||
During the [[Charum Hakkor campaign|final battle of Charum Hakkor]], she commanded a special force group of 7,000 warriors and 70 ships, tasked with defending the [[Charum Hakkor arena]], the site of the Primordial's [[timelock]].<ref>'''Halo: Primordium''', ''page 240''</ref> The overwhelming final assault led by the [[Didact]] himself eventually broke through Charum Hakkor's defenses and humanity's remaining forces were forced to surrender. Despite knowing her impending execution, she had hoped to warn the Forerunners about the Flood in order to ensure the safety for the rest of the galaxy.<ref>'''Halo: Primordium''', ''page 241''</ref> | |||
Yprikushma's consciousness was [[Mind transfer|extracted]] by a [[Composer]] and archived at the behest of the [[Librarian]]. Nearly nine thousand years later, the Librarian imprinted Yprikushma's archived personality into the genetic material of a [[Florian]] known as [[Riser]] as part of a ''[[geas]]''. Some time after awakening within Riser after he had landed on [[Installation 07]], she "reunited" with Forthencho, whose personality was in turn carried by another human, [[Chakas]].<ref>'''Halo: Primordium''', ''page 225''</ref> | |||
After Riser and Chakas were captured by [[Mendicant Bias]], the [[rampancy|rampant]] [[Contender-class artificial intelligence|Contender-class]] [[ancilla]] in control of Installation 07, Yprikushma's imprint was removed from Riser and placed into a [[monitor]] shell; the same procedure was done to many other humans who also carried archived human memories. Mendicant Bias promised the ancient humans revenge on the Forerunners, if their former carriers cooperated with it in saving the Halo from an impending collision with [[Wolf-faced planet|a planet]]. Yprikushma and Riser evidently complied, and were taken to a control station to interface with the Halo's controls.<ref name="p307">'''Halo: Primordium''', ''page 307-311''</ref> | |||
