What Spartan Blake saw he almost couldn't comprehend...

The surface was instantly recognizable. The large frozen wasteland encroaching upon thinly populated cities and a distinct look of desolation and despair.

He had read the file on Yoth. First the resistance and then the Chat's. It was a battle field. After the Battle of Eafth the Raptor Pirates had seen the flimsyness of Chat control and moved for the Slipspace crystals rummored to be worth trillions of Edits a piece.

The Chat fought back hard. They enlisted hundreds of thousands of civilians to the army and enslaved millions of civilians to build stealth orbital defense stations and groundside defenses. By the time of the Entilightentment discovery 1/3 of the slipspace crystals had been stolen and sold or stockpiled by the Raptors. the NGR Spirit of Honor would unknowingly steal these back in the conquest of an asteriod and give the asteriod to Drullkus who would make use of them.

Blake was huttling too fast though. He could feel it. His senses where more attuned to his surroundings without his armor. He reached to pull some dead bodies out of the way but he caught the eye of a dead young man. He couldn't have been more 16. And to think that their death was his fault. His heart sunk but his years of training held together.

Blake "Mission.  Just think about the mission.  Survival will be my salvation."

But Blake didn't really know what to think. He didn't know whether he told the humans at New Eden the secrets of the terrorists because he didn't want to be eaten by Kig-Yar or if he didn't want to help the Chat anymore. Feelings of patriotism and zeal for humanity clashed with feelings of duty and honor to his team. But nomatter what he made sure he kept one principal throughout his political turmoil. Never kill a human being. Too many soldiers died at the hands of the Covanent to spare one more life.

He could kill Sanheili, Kig-Yar, Raptors, and Mandalorians. That he knew for sure. But he couldn't shake the feeling that Nikolai and Alysha were not going to see his point of view. Whatever that was.
