two years later the theater of war shifts to helghan, the helghast home planet. danner disables part of the arc cannon system in order to open a window for invading isa forces as because of them the invasion has stalled. he then attempts to rescue the vektan ambassador and his family (as the leaking of admiral grey's location has been discovered by the helghast) from the vektan embassy in pyrrhus city, however the ambassador and his helghast wife are killed in the crossfire except for their son, justus, meanwhile a helghast scientist and defector named savic escapes the embassy in the chaos. with the help of the ambassador's bodyguard 'boris', danner and justus make it to the boats beneath the embassy and escape. rather than make their way directly back to isa headquarters, danner is ordered by benoit to divert and take justus to a helghast 'smoker tower' where savic has escaped to as he wishes to defect and has information which is vital the isa. they need to extract savic before the helghast find him, hence the urgency. danner and justus make their way through the helghast infested cliff sides where they eventually find savic in a bar. savic reveals that he had created a weaponized virus capable of wiping out the entire population of either planet due to genetic targeting of either race's dna, and fled due to his conscience. he rendered it inert before defecting, with the key to reactivating it lying inside justus' bloodstream. savic had hoped that if kratek had the inert base of the virus and the isa had the trigger (in justus's bloodstream) then neither side would be able to use the virus. danner engages the helghast forces which provides enough of a distraction that savic and justus safely make their way to the extraction point where admiral grey personally meets them, afterwards danner's next mission is to a nearby petrusite reactor complex to cut the power to the remaining air defenses. however, as he destroys the final reactor, benoit cuts him off and leaves him for dead as admiral grey knows that danner is the only other person who knows about the controversial virus. kratek overhears this and retrieves danner, revealing grey was planning to use the virus to finally wipe out the entire helghast population. kratek has danner return to the embassy (which grey has made her hq) with a helghast commando team to obtain the codes to the virus vault from savic, who was being interrogated for the same codes. savic gives the codes to danner after he makes danner switch off his comms so that kratek cannot hear the codes. danner can then choose to leave savic or execute him. danner observes justus being taken to the secret isa cruiser by admiral grey and benoit so they can activate the virus. after initially being pinned down by some isa exoskeletons, danner is saved by some helghast tanks
