After entering a formerly buried Forerunner city within Zone 67 and discovering Onyx's [[Cartographer|map room]], Team Saber and the other Spartans were ordered by AI [[Endless Summer]] to destroy a [[Sentinel manufacturing facility]] near the northern pole of Onyx in order to halt the production of Sentinels and save the [[Patterson's battle group|UNSC battle group]] over Onyx. They succeeded in destabilizing the core systems of the factory thanks to a plan formulated by Team Saber's leader, Ash-G099, who proposed they use the production plant's [[teleportation grid]] to quickly move across the facility.<ref>'''Halo: Ghosts of Onyx''', ''page 313-324''</ref> | After entering a formerly buried Forerunner city within Zone 67 and discovering Onyx's [[Cartographer|map room]], Team Saber and the other Spartans were ordered by AI [[Endless Summer]] to destroy a [[Sentinel manufacturing facility]] near the northern pole of Onyx in order to halt the production of Sentinels and save the [[Patterson's battle group|UNSC battle group]] over Onyx.

Pursued by a massive [[Joyous Exultation Covenant|Covenant]] army led by [[Voro Nar 'Mantakree]], they were forced to fall back to the [[shield world]]'s [[Core room antechamber|entry room]] in Onyx's core. A drawn-out battle ensued, and the super-soldiers killed many Covenant troops, despite losing three of their own. Finally, Kurt ordered the surviving Spartans through the slipspace portal to the shield world and sacrificed himself for their safety by destroying the Covenant army that attempted to gain entrance to the shield world by detonating two [[FENRIS nuclear warhead]]s.<ref>'''Halo: Ghosts of Onyx''', ''page 352-372''</ref> | ||
