Reaching the end of the temple ruins, Osiris discovers a canyon with the Forerunner facility on the other side. However, the retreating Kraken enters the canyon and ends up between the Spartans and the Forerunner facility. Spotting nearby [[Phaeton]]s, Osiris decides to help the Arbiter finish off the Kraken and the remaining Covenant forces in Nuusra. Using the Phaetons, the Spartans take out the defenses on the Kraken's main platform and land to assault the power core. Making their way to the Kraken's lowest level, Osiris fires on the power core until it overloads and explodes, and then flees in Banshees. Losing power, the Kraken falls to its demise in the chasm below, taking with it the remaining Covenant forces.{{Ref/Reuse|EL}}

With the Covenant forces cleared out, Osiris enters the Forerunner structure and attracts a Constructor's attention by damaging a Forerunner terminal. However, the attack also draw the attention of [[Promethean Knight]]s, [[Promethean Watcher|Watchers]] and [[Promethean Soldier|Soldiers]]. Osiris clears out the [[Promethean]] attackers and, along with their captured Constructor, are extracted by a [[Swords of Sanghelios]] Phantom.{{Ref/Level|Id=EL|H5G|[[Enemy Lines]]}}
