Reth: Difference between revisions

'''Reth''' was one of the [[Kig-yar]] rebels who settled on [[the Rubble]] with [[Human]] refugees. He was the leader of the Kig-yar forces at the Rubble, and bred an army of [[Unggoy]] on the surface of a planet in the same system, [[Metisette]].<ref>''[[Halo: The Cole Protocol]]''</ref>

His alliance with the [[Insurrectionist]]s was merely a ruse by which he intended to acquire the location of [[Earth]], before wiping them out with his army. While they were believed to be rebels by both the humans and [[Covenant]] forces sent by the [[High Prophet of Regret]], Reth was actually acting under the orders of the [[High Prophet of Truth]], who had no faith in Regret's methods. Reth believed that in completing his mission, he would earn the Kig-yar their place at the [[Prophet]]s' side. The Unggoy who served under Reth and his Kig-yar also believed they were rebels. They followed Reth because he had promised to give them Metisette, which had an abundance of [[methane]].  

When he was believed to be a rebel, [[Thel 'Vadam]] (then Thel 'Vadamee), [[Zhar (Sangheili)|Zhar]], [[Saal]], and [[Veer]] kidnapped him from [[The Redoubt]] for information. They then tortured him, refusing to believe that he was following the orders of the [[Hierarchs]] since they were under conflicting orders. Reth escaped imprisonment by fooling his Unggoy guards into releasing him. When he learned that [[Peter Bonifacio]] had lost Earth's nav data, he prepared to launch a massive assault on the Rubble and the [[Habitat Exodus|Exodus]] asteroid. However, Reth was killed while trying to escape as [[the Rubble]] crashed into the Redoubt on Metisette.
