| '''The Truth and Reconciliation''' is the third campaign level in ''[[Halo: Combat Evolved]]''. The Master Chief and a team of [[Orbital Drop Shock Troopers]] must rescue [[Captain (Navy)|Captain]] [[Jacob Keyes|Keyes]], who is being held prisoner aboard the [[Covenant Empire|Covenant]] ship, the ''[[Truth and Reconciliation]]''. After boarding the ship by using its [[Gravity Lift]], the Master Chief fights his way through the interior of the Covenant battlecruiser to rescue Captain Keyes and several other prisoners from the ship's brig. This is the first level in which [[Hunters]], [[Zealot]] Elites, and [[Stealth Elites]] are encountered.

| ''The view pans across a plateau with a Covenant [[CCS-Class Battlecruiser]] above it.''
| |
| Β | |
| *'''[[Cortana]]''': "The enemy has captured [[Captain (Navy)|Captain]] [[Jacob Keyes|Keyes]], and are holding him aboard one of their cruisers, the ''[[Truth and Reconciliation]]''. The ship is currently holding position approximately three hundred meters above the other end of this plateau."
| |
| Β | |
| ''[[D77-TC Pelican|Pelican]] [[Echo 419]] comes into view, it starts to land.''
| |
| Β | |
| *'''[[ODST]]''': "So how do we get inside the ship if it's in the air? The Corps issued me a rifle, not wings."
| |
| Β | |
| *'''[[Staff Sergeant]] [[Parker]]:'''<!--Johnson never appears here in canon--> "There's a [[Gravity Lift]] that ferries troops and supplies between the ship and the surface. That's our ticket in."
| |
| Β | |
| ''As the Pelican lands:''
| |
| Β | |
| '''{''Gameplay''}'''
| |
| Β | |
| *'''Cortana''': "Once we get inside the ship, I should be able to lock on to the tracking signal from Captain Keyes' neural implants."
| |
| Β | |
| *'''ODST''': "Everybody out!"
| |
| Β | |
| *'''Sergeant Parker''': "Hit it [[UNSC Marine Corps|Marines]], go go go! The Corps ain't payin' us by the hour!"
| |
| Β | |
| ''The ODSTs and the Chief head forward.''
| |
| Β | |
| *'''Cortana''': "Stick to the higher ground on the right. We should be able to recon the Covenant position without being spotted. I'm detecting Covenant [[Type-26 Anti-Infantry Stationary Gun|Stationary Guns]] near the next pass. I recommend using your [[SRS99C-S2 AM Sniper Rifle|Sniper Rifle]] to take out the gunners while I call for Marine support. ''(over radio)'' Get ready to move in to support us, Sergeant. The [[John-117|Master Chief]] is going to covertly take out as many of the Covenant as he can. Don't open fire until you hear the enemy return fire on us. That should let us keep the element of surprise."
| |
| Β | |
| ''Once the Covenant spots the Chief.''
| |
| Β | |
| *'''[[Sergeant (UNSC)|Sergeant]] [[Parker]]''': "Let 'em have it!"
| |
| Β | |
| ''The Marines open fire.''
| |
| Β | |
| ''If all the Covenant soldiers are not taken out yet, a [[Grunt]] will run towards a Shade turret.''
| |
| Β | |
| *'''Cortana''': "Alert! A Covenant is making a run for that [[Shade|stationary gun]]. ''(Drops NAV point on Grunt)'' Take him out!"
| |
| Β | |
| ''Once the area is secure:''
| |
| Β | |
| *'''ODST''': "Hey, we did it! We're right behind you, Chief!"
| |
| Β | |
| ''The Chief starts to move up the slope.''
| |
| Β | |
| *'''Cortana''': "Stop. Motion tracker shows movement around the next bend."
| |
| Β | |
| *'''Sergeant Parker''': "We're ready to advance as soon as you call for us, Cortana."
| |
| Β | |
| ''As [[Fire Team Charlie]] move further up the plateau.''
| |
| Β | |
| *'''Cortana''': "Covenant forces detected up ahead. The path up on the left should let us sneak up around them."
| |
| Β | |
| *'''Sergeant Parker''': "We'll hang back while you get into position, Chief."
| |
| Β | |
| ''If the Chief takes the left flank:''
| |
| Β | |
| *'''Cortana''': "Cortana to Fire Team Charlie. The Chief has the left flank covered. Recommend you move up the middle."
| |
| Β | |
| ''If the Chief moves up the middle:''
| |
| Β | |
| *'''Cortana''': "Cortana to Fire Team Charlie. The Chief has secured the middle. Get ready to move up the left, you should be able to flank the enemy."
| |
| Β | |
| *'''ODST''': "Roger that."
| |
| Β | |
| ''After the Chief takes out the last of the Covenant infantry:''
| |
| Β | |
| *'''Cortana''': "Alert! Covenant [[Spirit|Dropships]] are inbound!"
| |
| Β | |
| ''After area is secure:''
| |
| Β | |
| *'''Cortana''': "We're directly under the ship now."
| |
| Β | |
| *'''ODST''': "Alright! Are we bad or what?"
| |
| Β | |
| *'''ODST 2''': "Mother of God...I'd never thought I'd get close to one of these things. How the hell are we suppose to get inside that monster?"
| |
| Β | |
| ''or''
| |
| Β | |
| '''ODST''' '''2''': "If we're gonna board that thing, we need a plan."
| |
| Β | |
| *'''Cortana''': "The Covenant use a Gravity Lift to ferry troops and supplies between the ship and the surface. We need to ambush them at the Grav Lift's loading zone, and use the lift to enter the ship."
| |
| Β | |
| *'''ODST''': "Oh, is that all! Thats's us, the few, the proud, the expendable."
| |
| Β | |
| ''If three or more Marines from the team are killed:''
| |
| Β | |
| *'''Cortana''': "Cortana to Echo 419, requesting reinforcements from our position."
| |
| Β | |
| *'''[[Foe Hammer]] (COM)''': "Roger, Cortana, Echo 419 on approach."

| Β | |
| ''Covenant troops soon drop from the cruiser's Gravity Lift, engaging the team.''

| Β | |
| ''or''

| Β | |
| *'''Sergeant Parker''': "Covenant forces sighted! Let's hit 'em, Charlie Team!"
| |
| Β | |
| *'''ODST''': "Crap, those stationary guns are gonna tear us to pieces!"
| |
| ''or''
| |
| Β | |
| *'''ODST''': "Sir, those freakin' guns have us pinned down!"
| |
| Β | |
| ''As another Spirit approaches:''
| |
| Β | |
| *'''Cortana''': "Alert! Covenant Dropships are inbound!"
| |
| Β | |
| *'''ODST''': "Man, there's always something..."
| |
| Β | |
| ''After the team kills everything, including a pair of [[Hunters]]:''
| |
| Β | |
| *'''Sergeant Parker''': "We've secured the area. Let's square away the grav lift. Marines! Prepare for boarding action."
| |
| Β | |
| ''or''
| |
| Β | |
| *'''Sergeant Parker''': "This area's clear. No hostiles present. Marines, secure the grav lift and prepare for boarding!"
| |
| Β | |
| *'''ODST''': "Yes, sir!"
| |
| Β | |
| ''ODSTs gather under the grav lift''
| |
| Β | |
| ''If any of the Marines are KIA:''
| |
| Β | |
| *'''Cortana (COM)''': "Cortana to Echo 419. We've reached the Gravity Lift and are ready for reinforcements."
| |
| Β | |
| *'''Foe Hammer (COM)''': "Copy that, Cortana. Hang tight, gentlemen. Foe Hammer out."
| |
| Β | |
| *'''Cortana''': "Once we're inside the ship, I can home in on the Captain's command-neural interface. He'll probably be in or near the ship's brig, which should narrow our search."
| |
| Β | |
| *'''Foe Hammer (COM)''': "Echo 419 inbound, clear the drop zone."
| |
| Β | |
| *'''Staff Sergeant Johnson''': "Go, go, go!"
| |
| Β | |
| ''or''
| |
| Β | |

| *'''Cortana''': "We're in. I've got a good lock on the Captain's [[Command Neural Interface|CNI transponder]]. No Covenant defenses detected."

| |
| Β | |

| |
| Β | |
| ''The team exits the cargo bay through the open doors the Hunters came through. They head down the corridor but are stopped by a second set of blast doors:''

| or
| |
| Β | |
| *'''Marine 3''': "The door's locked, sir. No way through."
| |
| Β | |
| *'''Cortana (COM)''': "We can use the side passages to find a way around."
| |
| Β | |
| *'''Sergeant Parker''': "We'd be sitting ducks in that narrow space. We can hold this position if you can find your way around and open the door from the other side, Chief."
| |
| Β | |
| *'''Cortana''': "Chief, let's see if we can find a way to open this door."
| |
| Β | |
| ''As the Chief goes alone and makes his way to a balcony overlooking another cargo bay:''
| |
| Β | |
| *'''Cortana''': "Wait. That's the locked door down there. The Marines are waiting on the other side. The controls to open it must be somewhere in this room."
| |
| Β | |
| ''The Chief makes it to the ground level and opens the door, letting the rest of the team inside.''

| |

| Β | |
| *'''Cortana (COM):''' "Wait a moment. I'm going to access the [[Covenant Battle Network|Covenant Battlenet]] and locate an override code to open a door."

| |
| Β | |
| *'''Cortana (COM)''': "Working on it." ''(To the Master Chief)'' "I'd like to see ''you'' crack a 128,000-bit modulating encryption key."

| Β | |
| ''Once you kill the pair of Hunters:''

| Β | |
| ''Once the team reaches the ship's bridge and kills all the Covenant forces inside including the [[Zealot]] [[Shipmaster]]:''
| |
| Β | |
| *'''Cortana''': "This looks like the ship's command center. The Captain's transponder signal is strong, he must be close."
| |
| Β | |
| *'''Marine 1''': "This is a good spot, Chief. We'll mind the store here while you go find the Captain. Good luck, sir."

| |
| Β | |
| *'''Cortana (COM)''': "One moment, sir. Accessing the Covenant Battlenet. ''(Pause)'' According to the data in their networks, the ring has some kind of deep religious significance. If I'm analyzing this correctly, they believe that Halo is some kind of weapon. One with vast, unimaginable power."
| |
| Β | |
| *'''Captain Keyes''': "And it's true... The Covenant kept saying that whoever controls Halo controls the fate of the universe."
| |
| Β | |
| *'''Cortana (COM)''': "Now I see... I have intercepted a number of messages about a Covenant search team, scouting for a "control room". I thought they were looking for the bridge of a cruiser that I damaged during the battle above the ring. But they must be looking for Halo's control room."
| |
| Β | |
| *'''Captain Keyes''': "That's bad news. If Halo ''is'' a weapon, and the Covenant gain control of it, they'll use it against us and wipe out the entire human race." ''(Pause)'' "Chief, Cortana. I have a new mission for you. We need to beat the Covenant to Halo's control room. Marines! Let's move!"

| Β | |
| *'''Cortana (COM)''': "Acknowledged, Foe Hammer. Cortana out.

| ==Trivia==
| |
| ===Glitches===
| |
| *Right before you go into the valley where the Gravity Lift is, if you move fast enough the checkpoint will be reached before any of the Marines, Cortana will call for more men to be dropped while your Marines follow up behind you. If careful, there will be ten Marines to fight against the reaction force that is sent to battle. The same glitch can be performed when you first enter the hangar, meaning Echo 419 can say (scripted) βRoger Cortana, Echo 419 inboundβ three times.
| |
| *In the brig where Captain Keyes is being held, you can actually kill him and the three Marines while the Energy Shields are still up just by aiming in a precise location while standing up against the shields. If you kill Keyes and the Marines and then activate the cutscene where Master Chief rescues them, then after the cut scene, Keyes and the Marines will be there and turn against you and open fire.
| |
| *Before reaching the second level of the shuttle bay, there is a dead Grunt lying on the ground with a fully charged weapon and two grenades. If you walk out the door and walk back in, he will disappear.
| |
| Β | |
| ===Mistakes===
| |
| *There was a bug earlier in the development of the game in which Keyes had AI behavior which was "taunt enemy corpse" and when he picked up a Needler, he would fire it into a dead Covenant soldier, which would explode and kill himself. This bug was described by [[Joseph Staten]] on the ''[[Halo 3]]'' Legendary Edition Bonus Disc.
| |
| *Somewhere within the hallways of the vessel, there is a small patch of [[Flood]] blood on the ground. This is odd as the Flood were not released until later in the game. There is only one patch, and it is the same sickly green as you encounter from {{Levelname|343 Guilty Spark}} onward.
| |
| Β | |
| ===References===
| |
| *There was a level cut from the final game that necessitated the cutscene in which the Master Chief frees Captain Keyes and the marines. The level; in a more elegant way, described the theory about Halo. Joseph Staten also explained this on the Halo 3 Legendary Edition Bonus Disc.
| |
| *The Gravity Lift was created after the idea of a huge ramp leading into the ship was scrapped, again stated in the ''Halo 3'' Legendary Edition Bonus Disc.
| |
| *Keyes called a Marine a ''"leatherneck"''. The term, ''"leatherneck"'' is a slang referring to a U.S. Marine during the 20th century.

| *The Zealot Elite guarding the bridge is presumably [[Orna 'Fulsamee]], the Ship Master of the ''Truth and Reconciliation''.

| *This level may include the largest grenade jump possible. The jump includes four grenades and will skip the second floor completely. A video is here: [http://www.highspeedhalo.net/?time&id=9]; the jump occurs after about 13 minutes. A video is also available on youtube: [http://youtube.com/watch?v=gpnDWLe-vG4]; the jump is at around 2:47. This jump includes 3 plasma grenades and 1 frag. Three [[plasma grenades]] are thrown near the Overshield, each one is lower than the other. Then, a frag is thrown at the ground. Grab the Overshield before jumping, so no damage occurs.

| *If you pay attention while searching for Captain Keyes throughout the level, you will find random groups of marines lying dead in the hallways of the ''Truth and Reconciliation''. This is odd considering that all the marines that were with Captain Keyes went to the brig with him and the only other marines to enter the ship were with the Master Chief. It is also possible that they were a reconnaissance force sent in before the strike team. It is reinforced by the fact that in ''[[Halo: The Flood]]'', it says that reconnaissance had confirmed Keyes was captured and there are also dead Elites below the ship and in the launch bay. However, it was also mentioned that Chief past several groups of dead marines when traveling through the ships corridors. It may also be that these Marines were captured along with Keyes and killed on the way to their holding cells, perhaps for trying to escape.

| *This is the only level in the entire game/trilogy that you start with a Sniper Rifle with a total of 64 bullets. When your ammo is less than 24 bullets and you collect ammo, you can only get up to 24 bullets like a normal sniper rifle.

| *When you are just outside the bridge after rescuing Captain Keyes, it is possible that you sometimes can hear the Stealth Elites attacking and killing Sergeant Parker's squad.

| *The Marines that help you find Captain Keyes on this level are "standard-programmed", which means they fire weapons in semi-automatic bursts; only shoot in short to medium range, and climb onto a Warthog's gunner seat first rather than passenger seat, if both are empty. However, the Marines you rescue from the brig are "sniper-programmed", which means they fire weapons in full burst, fire at long-range targets (even if they're holding a short-range weapon like a Shotgun), and climb onto a Warthog's passenger seat first rather than gunner seat, if both are empty. There are also two other Marines that are sniper-programmed on the level {{Levelname|Assault on the Control Room}} (the Marine Sergeants with the Sniper Rifles). Although this level has no drivable vehicles and has a lot of close-quarters combat, the Marines were most likely given this feature to protect Captain Keyes more easily (Keyes also has the sniper-programmed feature).<!--I found this out after quite a while of experimenting with various weapons and bump-possession on custom-made multiplayer maps containing AIs.-->

| *After clearing the entire area outside the ship, if one returns to the entrance of the second area, there is a small alcove where an elite was hiding. It is covered by two thin rocks forming a ceiling. If one turns their volume up and walks in and out of the cave lightly, several different "ghost" noises can be heard including hissing, distant "birds" and wolve sounds. The bird sounds seem very similar to the ones from Halo 2 on [[High Charity]].

| *The [[Type-25 Assault Gun Carriage|Wraiths]] and aboard the Truth and Reconciliation can not be driven, however they can be destroyed with grenades and gunfire.
