In [[2558]], a Harvester was deployed by [[Jul 'Mdama's Covenant]] to excavate a buried Forerunner facility holding one of the three [[Requiem slipspace artifacts]].<ref name="Artifact" /> During the [[Requiem Campaign]] it was disabled by [[Fireteam Switchback]], who mysteriously vanished in the firefights afterwards, leaving no bodies or signs of struggle, only their [[Identification friend or foe|IFF tags]]. [[Fireteam Crimson]] was sent in to investigate. Crimson managed to kill the remaining crew of the Harvester and further disabled the walker by destroying several consoles inside.<ref name="Switchback" /> | In [[2558]], a Harvester was deployed by [[Jul 'Mdama's Covenant]] to excavate a buried Forerunner facility holding one of the three [[Requiem slipspace artifacts]].<ref name="Artifact" /> During the [[Requiem Campaign]] it was disabled by [[Fireteam Switchback]], who mysteriously vanished in the firefights afterwards, leaving no bodies or signs of struggle, only their [[Identification friend or foe|IFF tags]].

Sometime later, the Covenant retook the Harvester and captured several scientists to reactivate the walker, but they were not successful because the power supply was destroyed. When Requiem was put on a collision course towards the star it was orbiting, Fireteam Crimson was sent back to the area to reach one of the artifacts that was preventing the {{UNSCShip|Infinity}} from leaving the planet. After discovering that the artifact was buried behind a rock wall, it was realized that the Harvester had been brought in to excavate the artifact. Though the Harvester now had a shield blocking the entrance, Crimson took out nearby anti-aircraft defenses and a Pelican took the shield. Crimson eliminated the crew and rescued the scientists who revealed their failed effort to reactivate the Harvester. Needing a replacement power supply, [[Roland]] came up with a solution.<ref name="Artifact">'''Spartan Ops''', [[S1/Exodus/Artifact|S1E10 ''Artifact'']]</ref> Crimson was then deployed to "[[Apex]]" to steal the power supply from a [[Type-56 Lich|Lich]] to replace the destroyed supply on the Harvester.<ref>'''Spartan Ops''', [[S1/Exodus/Seize the Power|S1E10 ''Seize the Power'']]</ref> Crimson returned to the Harvester and cleared out the minimal Covenant forces that had reoccupied the walker while they were gone.
