The Cauldron

The Cauldron is the UNSC codename for a location on the Forerunner shield world Requiem.

History
During the Requiem campaign in 2558, Covenant archaeological teams were operating in this location, and the sent Spartan-IV Fireteam Crimson to investigate the area. After dispatching the Covenant forces in the area, Fireteam Crimson was under attack from Promethean forces, and found the Requiem translocation artifact hidden in the facility. The team then extracted the artifact and evacuated the area.

Fireteam Crimson later tracked Jul 'Mdama to this location in their continued pursuit of him and gave chase before he narrowly escaped an airstrike coordinated by Commander Sarah Palmer and Robert Dalton and teleported to safety. In his hasty getaway, he dropped a mysterious artifact known as the 'Didact's Gift', which was later retrieved by Crimson and transported to Galileo Base for further study.
