After becoming aware of the existence of [[The Assembly]], the Executor was tasked by Sloan with hunting down members of the [[Assembly Minority]] who had not joined the Created. Accordingly, the Executor was dispatched to hunt down [[Athos]], a Smart AI now nearing the end of his operational lifespan. The Executor then opened a dialogue between Athos and Proxy, leading to Proxy successfully persuading Athos to join the Created cause. In return for joining the Created, Proxy granted the Executor to Athos as a gift, presenting a further choice to the Minds as to the Executor's next evolution, ultimately deciding on [[Chimera (armor)|CHIMERA]]. {{Ref/Novel|Id=Precipice3|Precipice|Chapter=Part 3}} | After becoming aware of the existence of [[The Assembly]], the Executor was tasked by Sloan with hunting down members of the [[Assembly Minority]] who had not joined the Created.

At this time, Sloan | At this time, Sloan and the Minds of the Created both agreed that the Executor deserved to know the truth of their past, and revealed to the Executor that their memories of their former life had been suppressed by a third party - presumably the Assembly who had worked with the Executor prior to the Created. Sloan then revealed the truth of the Executor's human life and how they came to their current situation, before thanking them for their service and placing them into one final FIREWALL simulation.{{Ref/Reuse|Precipice4}} | ||
The final simulation was a scenario broadly similar to the awakening of John-117 aboard {{UNSCShip|Pillar of Autumn}} in the [[Battle over Installation 04]], with the Executor awakening from a [[cryo chamber]] aboard a warship being attacked by a [[Jiralhanae]] boarding party. The Executor headed to the ship's [[bridge]], encountering Sloan (taking the place of Captain [[Jacob Keyes]]) and Proxy (taking the place of Cortana). The Executor was instructed to take Proxy to safety, before ultimately being engaged by Jiralhanae forces and being forced to self-destruct their in-build "Defiance Protocol" [[nuclear weapon]] - destroying the ship and ending the simulation. Just before the detonation, Proxy remarked that it was necessary for the Executor to experience the feeling of failure and sacrifice before the real thing. The Executor was then awakened from the FIREWALL simulation, with Sloan remarking on how they were the culmination of the Assembly's plans - and would serve the Created as the first of eventually many other Executors.{{Ref/Reuse|Precipice4}} | |||
