In the undercarriage, the group located the citadel's primary control station that controlled the building itself which had been damaged when [[Installation 08]] fired and was knocked off-line. While [[Huragok]] [[Drifts Randomly]] worked to restore power to the station, Dr. [[Henry Lamb]] was attacked and killed by a damaged Sentinel under Tragic Solitude's control.

Due to the damage the Citadel sustained, it and all but [[Epsilon Clarion|one]] of the other facilities in the Clarion network were off-line for repairs when the [[Keepers of the One Freedom]] and the [[Covenant loyalists]] sought to activate the array. According to the Epsilon Spire's submonitor, the Citadel and the other facilities like it are either inoperable or inaccessible and may remain that way for some time.{{Ref/Reuse|DW8}} | |||
