[[Arbiter]] Thel 'Vadam welcomes the group, expressing deep gratitude on behalf of the [[Sangheili]] for their help and offering them a meal and rest before they depart, but Dr. Catherine Halsey interrupts, stating that they won’t leave until the next day. She mentions that ''Infinity'' will arrive near Suban the following day at 1800 [[Military Standard Time|MST]]—noon local time. Halsey steps aside to coordinate with Jameson Locke and Palmer, finalizing the rendezvous plan. The Master Chief confirms they’ll leave in the morning. | ||
The Arbiter then invites the group to partake in a feast prepared in celebration of [[Battle of Sunaion|their victory over the]] [[Jul 'Mdama's Covenant|Covenant]] and the end of the [[Blooding Years]]. Later, the Arbiter takes the Master Chief aside during the celebration. He expresses relief at his return, recalling how he had believed in the Spartan’s survival even when [[UNSC Forward Unto Dawn|their ship]] was severed during [[Raid on Installation 08|their escape]] from the [[Foundry (location)|Foundry]] [[2552#December|years ago]]. | The Arbiter then invites the group to partake in a feast prepared in celebration of [[Battle of Sunaion|their victory over the]] [[Jul 'Mdama's Covenant|Covenant]] and the end of the [[Blooding Years]].

The Arbiter asks to hear the Master Chief’s account of his time since then; he then briefly recounts being adrift in space for [[2557#July|over four years]] with Cortana, ending up at [[Requiem]] where they [[Battle of Requiem|awakened]] the [[Ur-Didact|Didact]]. At the cost of Cortana changing, they [[New Phoenix Incident|fought and defeated]] him. Cortana had claimed to be cured of her [[rampancy]] after accessing the [[Domain]], but her perspective had shifted dangerously, echoing the Didact’s views: A [[Created|new space order]] in which all would prosper under her rule, but those who resisted would face her wrath. The Master Chief, struggling with this reality, is pulled back to the present by the Arbiter, who shares his own experiences of failure as a [[Covenant]] warrior who killed countless humans, acknowledging that despite his redemption and fighting for peace, he will one day have to account for those he killed. He suggests that just as he saved him, the Master Chief may still have a chance to do so Cortana. | The Arbiter asks to hear the Master Chief’s account of his time since then; he then briefly recounts being adrift in space for [[2557#July|over four years]] with Cortana, ending up at [[Requiem]] where they [[Battle of Requiem|awakened]] the [[Ur-Didact|Didact]].

The Master Chief remembers their [[Recovery of John-117|initial tense meeting]] on [[Earth]] when they were still enemies, recalling the Arbiter’s words: “Were it so easy.” They speak throughout the night, with the Arbiter sharing his perspective on the events that have transpired, speaking of loss, sacrifice, victory, and at last | The Master Chief remembers their [[Recovery of John-117|initial tense meeting]] on [[Earth]] when they were still enemies, recalling the Arbiter’s words: “Were it so easy.” They speak throughout the night, with the Arbiter sharing his perspective on the events that have transpired, speaking of loss, sacrifice, victory, and at last unity—hope for the future by way of the [[Concert of Worlds]], a multispecies alliance built on strength, honor, and mutual respect, aiming for an age of peace, though he acknowledges that such peace is far off. | ||
As dawn approaches within the hour, preparations are made for the departure aboard the Pelican. The ''Infinity'' arrives out of slipspace for a quick pickup. The Arbiter bids the Master Chief farewell, confident that they will face the new threats together as allies. They clasp forearms in a show of mutual respect before the Pelican lifts off, speeding through the atmosphere of Sanghelios as the light of [[Urs system|Urs]] rises, leaving the world to face an uncertain future. | As dawn approaches within the hour, preparations are made for the departure aboard the Pelican.
