==History== | |||
During the [[Battle of Kamchatka]], Jul 'Mdama ordered a Kraken deployed to hold off [[Promethean]] forces that had rebelled from his control. However, the Promethean resistance turned out to be too much for it, and it was forced to fall back, leading to 'Mdama's death shortly thereafter.<ref>'''Halo 5: Guardians'', ''campaign level [[Osiris (level)|Osiris]]''</ref> | |||
His remaining troops attacked the [[Vadam]] lands of [[Sanghelios]] with a Kraken, either the same one or another. Though powerful, it was held off by the [[Swords of Sanghelios]]'s [[Banshee]] squadron until it was cornered in a narrow canyon. There [[Fireteam Osiris]] boarded it using [[Phaeton]]s, navigated to its central core, and then overloaded it to destroy the Kraken.<ref>'''Halo 5: Guardians'', ''campaign level [[Enemy Lines]]''</ref> | |||
