If any HALO were to have a prominent role in the Reclaimer Trilogy, it would undoubtedly be Installation 07. Now, as Ancilla 049 so carefully suggested, could Installation 07 be under attack by the Ancient Enemy? Now, has anyone read Halo Primordium, 'cause that’s where it gets juicy. Whether an elaborate ARG, or a fake, Ancilla 049 opened up an enticing direction to take the fiction.

SCIENCE TEAM ADJUTANT: "Sir, pardon my interruption-we’ve been analyzing the fleet database, and we’re coming to a tentative conclusion that this installation still exists. It may be the most mysterious Halo of all, Installation 07. Its surface is wrapped in perpetual cloud-.

The Master Builder, Faber, crash landed on Installation 07, he was never recovered. And only presumed dead. For forty-three years The Primordial, the Last Precursor, was interrogated on Installation 07 by Lifeworkers and the Contender-class Ancilla Mendicant Bias, before Mendicant betrayed his Forerunner creators and set free The Captive, turning Installation 07 into a laboratory for his newfound Master to experiment on the Shaping Sickness, the Flood.__________
