- "It was once said that Our Makers were without equal, that their sheer power of will and their oft treasured hope was enough to spur them to victory through any trial. Where are they now?"
- ―024 Archaic Chivalry
024 Archaic Chivalry, referred to occasionally by Covenant species as Oracle and often simply Chivalry, was the Catalogue-class Monitor assigned to Satellite 02, the Ceres Installation. Though fairly unknown during the era of the Forerunners, Archaic Chivalry would play an important rule in the Battle of Ceres, the continued existence of the Covenant Remnants, the Battle of Ignito Prime, and the Necros War.
Biography[]
Background[]
The Ceres Installation was another Forerunner station built to contain and study the Hydra, as well as the Flood; later, it served as a testing ground for the destruction weapon used on the Halo Array. Archaic Chivalry was assigned to the station, and watched over it for thousands of years without incident.
Last Battle of Ceres[]
When Archaic Chivalry awoke to the sounds of battle, he immediately awoke the last Forerunner, the Librarian of Ceres and attempted to contain both parasites, to no avail. During the battle, he and his tactical operations sub-Monitor 714 Cognitive Tactics did everything they could to destroy the Flood and Hydra, but in the end Chivalry gave the Index to two humans who activated the installation. Archaic Chivalry managed to escape with a small group of sentinels and 823543 Discordant Fervor in his custody. The tables were soon turned though, as Discordant Fervor broke free, taking Archaic Chivalry captive and controlling his sentinels.
