During their search for the origin of the bioweapon, they discovered the element used in the weapon was mined on [[Alpha Shard]], a partly functional fragment of [[Installation 04]], a [[Forerunner]] [[Halo Array|Halo installation]] destroyed by [[John-117]] years prior.

However, Locke and the remaining two Sedrans—Colonel Aiken and [[Talitha Macer|Private Macer]]—managed to retrieve the HAVOK warhead from the crashed Condor. With Aiken detonating the nuke and Ramos and Horrigan killed by the Lekgolo on their way to the smugglers' spacecraft, Locke and Macer were the only ones to successfully escape Alpha Shard aboard the tug.<ref name="nf5">'''Halo: Nightfall''', ''Chapter 5''</ref> | ||
