Straight To The First Halo Ring

There are key differences follow The Fall of Reach as seen in the games and books . Firstly , John-117 and the UNSC ship known as thePillar of Autumnhead directly from Reach ’s death to the first Halo ring , a moderately unreasoning jump using coordinates from Cortana upon study a Forerunner artefact . too , the Covenant is close behind , resulting in the conflict on the first Halo mob known as Installation-04 ( as seen in the dealership ’s first gameHalo : Combat Evolved ) . Additionally , Admiral Keyes is in bidding , having survived Reach as opposed to his death inHaloseason 2 , episode 4 .

Rather than being captured by the Covenant , Cortana is safely delivered to John-117 andThe Pillar of Autumnby Noble Team(the police squad of Spartans from theHalo : Reachprequel game who are notably absent in the show ) . Likewise , the Covenant would continue to assail other colony worlds such as Tribute and Coral . Furthermore , no compact loss leader went rogue against the Hierarchs , and instead Reach ’s supreme commander Thel ' Vadam was tasked with securing Installation-04 , a delegation he flunk , result in his new theatrical role as an Arbiter as seen inHalo 2and beyond .

to boot , Ackerson ’s secret Spartan - III programwas already in development long before Reach , though Halsey did discover its beingness shortly after the Fall ( which will likely take place in theHaloseries as well ) . Likewise , Halsey was escorted off Reach by UNSC forces in the games , though she was n’t with John-117 or thePillar of Autumn . Instead , she continued to have a contentious relationship with the UNSC High Command to the point that she even defected and joined forces with the corpse of the Covenant in the eld that followed ( due to her fixation with the Forerunners and all they left behind ) .

Regardless of all the changes between theHaloshow ’s new " Silver Timeline"and the franchise ’s core canon with the plot and books , it does await as though all point are converging on the first Halo halo . With any destiny , both the Covenant and John-117 will in the end on the gang ’s airfoil byHaloseason 2 ’s finale .
