On multiple occasions, Kilo-Five provide arms to the leader of the Abiding Truth, [[Avu Med 'Telcam]]. They set up their meetings on the glassed colony of [[New Llanelli]] in the [[Brunel system]]. On their second meeting, Kilo-Five encountered a colonist named [[Tom Muir]]. Muir was extracted from the planet and quarantined on ''Port Stanley'', so he couldn't discover anything about their mission. When he questioned Osman about the meetings, Serin lied and told him they were merely exchanging fallen soldiers.<ref>'''[[Halo: Glasslands]]''', ''page 151''</ref> | On multiple occasions, Kilo-Five provide arms to the leader of [[Servants of the Abiding Truth|the Abiding Truth]], [[Avu Med 'Telcam]].

Kilo-Five then headed to the former mining colony [[Reynes]] to relieve ONI operative [[Mike Spenser]] of his duties. Spenser was a spy who operated a UNSC listening station on the planet. He was extracted by Mal and Vaz, but not before they were involved in a brief firefight with several [[Kig-Yar]], who were attempting to claim the team's dropship for themselves.<ref>'''[[Halo: Glasslands]]''', ''pages 152-158''</ref> | Kilo-Five then headed to the former mining colony [[Reynes]] to relieve ONI operative [[Mike Spenser]] of his duties.

The {{UNSCShip|Ariadne}} experienced reactor complications and was forced to drop out of [[Slipstream space|slipspace]] near [[Venezia]]. Having received no assistance from the [[Insurrectionist]]-controlled colony, ''Ariadne'' sent a message to [[Earth]] asking for help. The {{UNSCShip|Monte Cassino}} was dispatched - both to evacuate the ship's crew and to rendezvous with the {{UNSCship|Port Stanley}} for a personnel transfer. However, the reactor exploded before any help could arrive, and the ''Ariadne'' was lost with all hands. Prior to the ''Monte Cassino'''s return trip to [[Earth]], ''Port Stanley'' transferred Mike Spenser and Tom Muir to the ship.<ref>'''[[Halo: Glasslands]]''', ''page 184''</ref> | The {{UNSCShip|Ariadne}} experienced reactor complications and was forced to drop out of [[Slipstream space|slipspace]] near [[Venezia]].

Kilo-Five then traveled to Venezia to meet up with Mike Spenser, who had been assigned to monitor resurgent rebel and black market activity on the planet. After Mal and Vaz landed on the surface and put on disguises, Spenser picked them up and took them to his hideout in [[New Tyne]]. Spenser showed them pictures of all the insurrectionist leaders based on the planet. As they looked through the pictures, they found one of them to be Naomi's own father, [[Staffan Sentzke]]. Kilo-Five's investigation was put on hold when communication with BB's fragment and Phillips was lost due to an explosion in the state of [[Ontom]]. | Kilo-Five then traveled to Venezia to meet up with Mike Spenser, who had been assigned to monitor resurgent rebel and [[black market]] activity on the planet.

Utilizing the | ''Port Stanley'' returned to Sanghelios as 'Telcam began his [[Sangheili civil war|assault on Vadam]]. Utilizing the Pelican ''[[Tart-Cart]]'', Kilo-Five searched for Phillips in Ontom and inside the [[Temple of the Abiding Truth]]. They eventually located Phillips through an intercepted communication and traveled to the state of [[Acroli]] to evacuate him. They extracted Phillips in the midst of a skirmish at [[Nes'alun keep]]. During the evacuation, ''Tart-Cart'' was damaged by a Banshee, forcing Devereaux to put her down for repairs. They were eventually forced to accept parts from the Sangheili, [[Forze 'Mdama]]. Once repairs were made, they flew back to ''Stanley''. During their flight back, a fire erupted and they had to re-route to the {{UNSCShip|Infinity}}, which was deployed on trial to Sanghelios to test its capabilities in the guise of assisting the Arbiter and his forces. | ||
