Having spent years observing courier operations, Halsey has developed an eye for exceptional talent. When Jack joins Aletheion, Halsey quickly recognises that his abilities far exceed those of typical new recruits. Rather than simply exploiting this talent, Halsey takes a more nurturing approach, carefully guiding Jack's advancement through the courier ranks.

Halsey's decision to promote Jack with unprecedented speed reflects both his recognition of Jack's extraordinary capabilities and his understanding of how to work within the corporate system to benefit deserving employees.
