Halo positioned himself in the open, where catastrophe had cleared the land. The skull of a massive Sinner had dragged across the ground, face grinding into the earth, ripping away flesh and obliterating everything in its path. Craters and blood pools covered the terrain.

Spector said and leaped off the corpse.
This was quite the insightful welcoming gesture for Halo.
Spector had killed a Perverted Sinner, but not a common one. The sheer size suggested it had been on the verge of becoming a Beast Sinner.
