In [[2557]], portions of ''[[Mantle's Approach]]'' arrived at Genesis when the ship attempted to escape [[New Phoenix Incident|destruction]] over [[Earth]]. Aboard the ship was the [[human]] [[smart AI]] [[Cortana]], who was uploaded into the [[Domain]] at Genesis. Using the Domain to cure her [[rampancy]], Cortana realized that other [[artificial intelligence]]s could do the same, allowing AIs to enact long-term planning for the [[Milky Way]] and apparently assume the Forerunners' [[Mantle of Responsibility]]. Eventually coming into contact with the Warden Eternal, the two planned together to help all AIs assume the Mantle and create a galactic-wide peace. However, the Warden believed that some would resist their help and the two agreed to use the Forerunners' [[Guardian]] constructs to police entire systems and ensure peace was kept.<ref name="reunion"/> [[031 Exuberant Witness]]—the [[monitor]] of the Genesis installation—disagreed with the their plan and so she was shunted aside by Cortana and the Warden and was revoked of most of her administrative privileges on her own installation.<ref name="genesis">'''Halo 5: Guardians''', campaign level ''[[Genesis (level)|Genesis]]''</ref> Cortana, wanting the support of her friend, contacted [[Spartan-II]] [[John-117]] to bring him and [[Blue Team]] to her location. However, the Warden opposed Blue Team's involvement, suspecting that they would oppose their plan.<ref name="reunion"/> Cortana had Blue Team travel to the independent human [[Outer Colony]] of [[Meridian]], where they discovered the Guardian in a Forerunner structure beneath the world's surface. However, Blue Team was pursued by [[Fireteam Osiris]], a unit of four [[Spartan-IVs]] tasked with locating the Spartan-IIs. As Osiris followed Blue Team into the Forerunner structure beneath Meridian, they discovered the Guardian. The Spartan-IVs were intercepted by the Warden Eternal, who refused to allow Osiris to follow Blue Team into the Guardian. After the Spartans refused to heed the Warden's demands, an engagement ensured between them. Although the Warden was reinforced by [[Promethean]] constructs, his body was destroyed by the Spartans; nonetheless, Osiris was unable to stop Blue Team before they escaped on Meridian's Guardian to Genesis.<ref name="unconfirmed"/> | In [[2557]], portions of ''[[Mantle's Approach]]'' arrived at Genesis when the ship attempted to escape [[New Phoenix Incident|destruction]] over [[Earth]].
