Upon exiting slipspace, the Guardian arrived at the Forerunner world of [[Genesis]], where all the other Guardians had traveled to at Cortana's demand. While the Spartans observed their new surroundings, the Guardian attempted to shake the Spartans off, forcing Vale and her team to quickly descend down the construct until they were close enough to the ground to safely jump off the Guardian. Osiris soon encountered monitor [[031 Exuberant Witness]], who served as caretaker of the installation. The ancilla revealed that Cortana was intending to use the Guardians to force peace across the galaxy and to wipe out those that refused, apparently trying to instill the Forerunners' [[Mantle of Responsibility]] on all species with herself and other AI—now calling themselves the [[Created]]—as its holders. Osiris resolved to aiding Blue Team and stopping Cortana, with the help of Exuberant Witness. As the Spartans traveled to Blue Team's position at Genesis' [[Gateway (Genesis)|Gateway]], they encountered Covenant forces that were inadvertently brought to Genesis with the Guardians, as well as hostile Promethean forces. Osiris fought their way towards the Gateway, where they were attacked by the Warden Eternal once again but managed to defeat him. Upon arriving just outside the Gateway, Osiris came under attack from more Prometheans and several of the Warden's bodies, as they attempted to buy time for Cortana to finish her plans. After a long engagement, Osiris proved victorious and Exuberant Witness gave the Spartans access to the inside of the Gateway.<ref name="genesis">'''Halo 5: Guardians''', campaign level ''[[Genesis (level)|Genesis]]''</ref>

To aid the monitor, Osiris activated two nearby auxiliary power stations to help Exuberant Witness regain control of Genesis.

As Vale came to Locke's aid, Cortana prepared to leave the planet aboard her Guardian with the Cryptum, but Exuberant Witness sent a fleet of Constructors to take the Cryptum from the Guardian just as it entered slipspace. Following Cortana’s departure, both Blue Team and Fireteam Osiris together fought their way through hordes of Promethean constructs to reach [[India 127|a D79-TC Pelican]] that had previously arrived on the planet via a Guardian’s Slipspace entry. Agreeing to return to Sanghelios, the joint team requested Witness’ help, who opened a [[Slipspace portal]] for them.<ref>''[[Halo: Bad Blood]]''</ref>

Upon their arrival at Sanghelios, they deduced that surviving allies might be hiding in the region of [[Nuusra]]. Sure enough, they located the [[Swords of Sanghelios]]’ [[Sangheili hut|makeshift campsite]] in the cliffs and touched down, reuniting with Halsey, the Arbiter, and Palmer.<ref>''[[Halo: Bad Blood]]''</ref><ref>'''Halo 5: Guardians''', campaign level, ''[[Guardians (level)|Guardians]]''</ref>
