After learning FERO’s true identity, Maya Sankar is taken to Midnight facility, where she is to be brief on a new assignment. Before heading to her brief, she takes a detour to check in on Ben Giraud, seeing what happened to him after ONI turned him into a scapegoat. While Ben still believed in FERO and her mission, Maya accidentally revealed to Ben her true assignment. Not a moment later, Maya was called by Sully to his office as Ben was sedated. Maya’s and Sully’s exchange revealed his true purpose for being at Midnight and unveils what is happening to Ben. At the end, Maya receives her brief from Noah, where she is to investigate a strange anomaly site on Meridian. We are once again joined by Toa Freak from Halo Canon.

Podtacular 505: An Unpleasant Story
At long last Hunt the Truth returns for a second season, but instead of picking up with Petra Janecek from the conclusion of season one, we meet a new face within the story, or rather unveil a mysterious character, Maya Sankar as FERO. We heard Ben’s story, how the bold journalist got turned into an ONI scapegoat. Now it’s Maya’s turn to tell her story, or rather FERO’s story while she’s been playing during her operation as an ONI agent. We are pleased to have Toa Freak joining us on the show for all of our Hunt the Truth Season two discussions. Make sure to check out his channel Halo Canon.
