English is tricky because not all rules always apply to all words at all given points in dictation. "It's" in this use is obviously not "It is." You have to relate it to the formal relation such as a name. So replacing "it's" with the name John (since "it's" is relating to a formal name, "Husk of the Pit") in this sentence would be "John's" former allies. You wouldn't say "John" former allies or Johns' former allies so this is the correct grammar and not a typo.

Try learning German or Spanish that's all often backwards by English standards
-
very true. sounds great though
-
No, it isn't. The meaning of a contraction does not change in context.
-
Last one was a joke. Don't panic.
-
Also it's can be it has not just it is which works very easily in Bungie's sentence when read.
-
It does when the point of the possession is plural preceded by an adjective concerning "it", "their", and one other that is slipping my mind. Trust me or not I had this argument multiple times growing up and the only way around is by restating the true possessor or going with the trend in writing.
-
No, you're attempting to fudge a special case rule in the English language that doesn't apply. The use of "it's" is improper here, regardless of usage trends.
-
Man there are so many special case rules in the English language it is ridiculous. Aside from pronunciation with Russian and the three main dialects of Chinese, when it comes to structure of sentences and the proper usage of pronouns (for this example) English is the toughest language to master. Hell it's getting to the point of having high and low English rules based on current trends in England and America (slang put aside). The reasoning is that certain ways of saying certain things are dying here and/or there. Educational institutions are now picking and choosing which to teach rather than all of them as when I was in school.
