After fighting through more Covenant, Jonathan finally arrived at Dare's location, much to her surprise. She finally told him of her mission: to retrieve the data the Superintendent recorded during the Prophet of Regret's attack on the city.

While Dare was initially hostile towards the creature, Jonathan, as he learned through the audio logs that the creature helped Endesha, was in fact friendly.

Dare learned that Quick was willing to reveal information about the Covenant.{{Ref/Reuse|datah}}{{Ref/NoteReuse|canon}} | After fighting through more Covenant, Jonathan finally arrived at Dare's location, much to her surprise.

Like [[John-117]] and [[SPARTAN-B312]], The Rookie is meant to be a largely undefined character with whom the player can easily identify. As such, his face is never seen and he never speaks. He is thus a true silent protagonist, in contrast to all other playable characters in the ''Halo'' series, who have dialogue at least in cutscenes. It is believed that his initials, J.D., are a reference to "[[Wikipedia:John Doe|John Doe]]," a placeholder name commonly given to a male who is as of yet unidentified. The [[2022]] edition of the ''[[Halo Encyclopedia (2022 edition)|Halo Encyclopedia]]'' would reveal Rookie's full name to be Jonathan Doherty,{{Ref/Reuse|Enc22p97}} which is itself likely a play on "John Doe". | Like [[John-117]] and [[SPARTAN-B312]], The Rookie is meant to be a largely undefined character with whom the player can easily identify.
