- 343 Guilty Spark: "Halo..."
A large haze of purple energy expands, and a Halo installation becomes visible in its midst.
- 343 Guilty Spark: "My makers' most horrific and devastating weapon."
A lush jungle with Forerunner structures and a Flood-infested Forerunner city are blown away by the impact of the Halo's activation. The camera then zooms out as Installation 04's energy pulse expands rapidly.
- 343 Guilty Spark: "But this ring is not just a weapon..."
Holographic representations of five Halo installations become visible. An expansive view of a jungle on Installation 04 is then shown.
- 343 Guilty Spark: "It is my home."
343 Guilty Spark is then shown to be examining Forerunner machinery. After that, both installation 04 and Threshold are shortly visible from space.
- 343 Guilty Spark: "And your presence is not a coincidence."
343 Guilty Spark is shown to be hovering before a platform, showing six holographic representations of Halo installations.
- 343 Guilty Spark: "You were brought here to serve a purpose."
343 Guilty Spark then gathers in unison with five other Monitors in a circular fashion, around Forerunner glyphs.
- 343 Guilty Spark: "But first, you must see the truth. Learn all that took place in my maker's absence."
An infected Marine is shown firing a MA5 assault rifle. The screen soon pans towards a large Human-Covenant battle around Forerunner structures. A Marine is then briefly shown running from a horde of Flood, as another Marine is overwhelmed behind him. Afterwards, a Spartan fires a rocket at one of the combat forms. John-117 can then be seen through the flame jet left by the rocket. 343 Guilty Spark faces the viewer's screen.
- 343 Guilty Spark: "Are you ready, Reclaimer? This is how my story begins."
