'''Talitsa''', also known as '''Vitalyevna III''',<ref name="Halo Channel">'''[[Halo Channel]]''': ''Encyclopedia''</ref> is an [[Outer Colony]] under control of the [[United Rebel Front]]. Talitsa is a [[natural satellite]] of the ringed [[planet|gas giant]] [[Vitalyevna]], a planet in the [[Sverdlovsk system]]. It was one of the few worlds left unscathed by the [[Covenant]]. It had a strong anti-centralization and pro-colonial autonomy sentiment, even before the [[Human-Covenant War]].{{Ref/Reuse|universe}}

==History== 
Several uprisings occurred in the colony's major population centers in [[2493]], [[2516]], and [[2520]].{{Ref/Reuse|universe}} The [[UNSC]] managed to halt these early political uprisings, but this only fostered a more radical form of dissent, now in the form of secluded and heavily armed redoubts. Ultimately, these sites provided the foundation for a number of major political movements.<ref>[http://blogs.halowaypoint.com/Headlines/post/2013/03/13/The-Halo-Bulletin-31313.aspx '''Halo Waypoint''', ''The Halo Bulletin: 3.13.13'']</ref> Outside of the moon's heavily fortified capital, the rest of the colony was essentially ungovernable. The separatist groups ultimately disbanded by [[2528]], although the pro-colonial autonomy sentiment remained.{{Ref/Reuse|universe}} The [[WETWORK-class Mjolnir]], a variant of the [[MJOLNIR Powered Assault Armor (GEN2)]], was tested against the United Rebel Front on this moon.<ref>'''[[Halo 4]]''' ''- Wetwork Armory description''</ref> 

During the civil revolts on the moon, Wetwork was instrumental in halting the growing dissidence in the colony's largest population centers by swiftly and delicately eliminating the leadership of several uprisings.<ref>'''[[Halo 4: The Essential Visual Guide]]''', ''page 171''</ref> The URF established many outland redoubts sites on the world. Some of these bases were discovered following the [[Human-Covenant War]], but most remained well-hidden. The upper echelons of the [[Unified Earth Government]] began to fear that another armed rebellion would occur.{{Ref/Reuse|universe}} [[Outcast|A simulation]] of a rebel stronghold was later used by the {{UNSCShip|Infinity}}'s [[SPARTAN-IV]] complement for training.{{Ref/Map|Id=outcast|[[Halo 4]]|[[Outcast]]}}

In [[2555|August of 2555]], SPARTAN-IVs [[Edward Buck]], [[Michael Crespo]], and [[Kojo Agu]] participated in a [[Operation: COALPEPPER|mission]] at an United Rebel Front facility on the moon to recover the captured [[Huragok]] [[Quick to Adjust]] and his [[human]] handler [[Sadie Endesha]]. Despite Crespo's defection to the URF, Buck and Agu were ultimately successful in rescuing Endesha and the Huragok.<ref>'''Halo: New Blood''', Chapter 18</ref>

In [[2558|October 2558]], forty hours before [[Alpha-Nine]]'s arrival to [[Cassidy III]], the [[Created]] subjugated Talitsa, before the URF's negative to accept [[Cortana]]'s demands. After a [[Guardian Custode|Guardian]] knocked out their power grid, the Created sent Forerunner armigers to "clear out what was left".<ref>'''[[Halo: Bad Blood]]''', Chapter 14</ref>
