[[Pavium]] and [[Voridus]] are sent on a salvage mission to the wreckage surrounding [[High Charity]], although they are ordered to avoid going into the [[Covenant]] holy city by [[Atriox]] out of fear of the [[Flood]] surviving within. Not believing in the existence of the Flood, Pavium and Voridus lead the clan to High Charity, deactivating the Ark's [[Sentinel]] defense network and breaching the [[quarantine shield]] with a [[Banished Scarab]]. However, when the Long Shields enter High Charity, the Flood within quickly set upon them, infecting many of the [[Banished]] forces and escaping from their quarantine to [[Outbreak on Installation 00|infest the Ark]] once more.
