Summary

A Halo 2 singleplayer level. As the Master Chief, you must battle your way through the Flood-infested High Charity to stop the Prophet of Truth before he boards the Forerunner Ship.

Transcript

First Cinematic

{the Master Chief drops down a gravlift in time to see the Phantoms fly away, he walks over to Mercy}

Master Chief: "Your pal. Where's he going?"

Prophet of Mercy: "Earth... to finish what we started. And this time, none of you... will be left behind..."

{Mercy dies, MC kills the Flood, Cortana's hologram appears on Mercy's throne}

Cortana: "That structure at the center of the city! It's a Forerunner Ship... and Truth is straight for it! If he leads the Covenant fleet to Earth, they won't stand a chance. You have to stop him!"

Master Chief: "That Brute has the Index. And Miranda and Johnson. He can activate the ring."

{we see In Amber Clad crashed into a nearby tower}

Cortana: "If he does, I'll detonate In Amber Clad's reactor just like we did the Autumn's. The blast will destroy this city and the ring. Not a very original plan, but we know it'll work." {MC reaches for her} "No. I don't want to chance a remote detonation. I need to stay here..."

{a Pelican crashes on the platform, Combat Forms run out}

==Gameplay

Cortana: "Flood controlled dropships are touching down all over the city! That creature beneath the Library... that 'Gravemind'... used us. We were just a diversion. In Amber Clad was always its intended vector. There's a conduit connecting this tower to the ship. Head back inside. I'll lead you to it."

{if MC wastes time fighting}

Cortana: "We don't have time for this, Chief. Truth's Phantom is nearing the Forerunner ship."

{MC reaches a gravlift}

Cortana: "I'll disable this lift once you reach the top. That'll slow them down... I hope."

{after MC reaches the top}

Prophet of Truth (loudspeaker): "Shall we let the Flood consume our holy city? Turn High Charity into another of their wretched hives? No enemy has ever withstood our might. The Flood too shall fail."

Cortana: "I'll do what I can to slow the launch sequence. There's something inside the ship... a presence that's fighting back! For a Covenant construct, it's unusually formidable."

{later}

Prophet of Truth (loudspeaker): "The parasite did not defeat the Forerunners... and it shall not defeat us.

Gravemind: "Arrogant creature! Your death will be instantaneous, while we suffer the progress of infinity..."

{later}

Cortana: "The security systems in this part of the tower are particularly robust."

Prophet of Truth (loudspeaker): "Whosoever is gripped by fear, take heed. I am the Prophet of Truth. ...And I am not afraid. Noble Mercy is here at my side. His wise counsel is ever at my aide."

Gravemind: "We exist together, now? Two corpses in one grave."

{later}

Cortana: "Apparently, these are the Prophet Hierarch's quarters. Their inner sacntum."

Prophet of Truth (loudspeaker): "This crisis cannot be the end of us. It is but one path to fulfill the journey to salvation!"

{later}

Cortana: "Brute and Elite ships are engaging one another all around High Charity. I'm running out of options, Chief! I can't stall the launch sequence much longer. The next lift will take you up to the conduit. Hurry!"
