On [[2558#September|September 2558]], Molly was living in [[Aranuka]] on [[Earth]], along her "Newparents" [[Yong Lee]] and [[Asha Moyamba]]. One day, Yong and Asha came home early, informing Molly that they will leave Anaruka because they were hired by the [[Office of Naval Intelligence]] to study [[Forerunner]] technology on [[Sarcophagus]], living alongside [[Sangheili]] and [[Unggoy]] from the [[Swords of Sanghelios]]. Molly roundly refuses to move with them because of her hate against those species and the Covenant as a whole, even if the Swords are allied with the humans, but when her Newparents mentions [[Spartan Operations|Spartans]] will be present to maintain the [[shield world]] secure from any threats, both internal and external, she reticently accept to the move, but she plans to leave Sarcophagus when she turns 18. Inside Sarcophagus, an small battle starts near the [[Project GOLIATH|Project: GOLIATH]] site, with Forerunner [[armiger]]s appearing out of nowhere; Spartans [[Tom-B292]] and [[Lucy-B091]] are dispatched to handle the enemy forces. After the battle, they inform [[Franklin Mendez]] that the armigers were protecting the site, not attacking it. On [[Hesduros]], [[Dural 'Mdama]], "the Pale Blade" and leader of the [[Servants of Abiding Truth]], led his forces to the planet and makes an alliance with [[Panom|the]] [[kaidon]] of the [[Panom keep]] to gain access to the same [[slipspace]] portal Dural's father, [[Jul 'Mdama]], used to escape from Sarcophagus [[2553|five years ago]].

Days later, Molly, along her Newparents and other families, are transported into Sarcophagus onboard the {{UNSCShip|Milwaukee}}, an {{Class|Poseidon|light carrier}} repurposed as a civilian transport and refitted with some [[Forerunner]] technology recovered inside the shield world. On the ship, they are received by Doctor [[Hugo Barton]], who fills them with the history of [[Onyx]] and some information about Sarcophagus. After settling on [[Paxopolis]], Molly and her Newparents are visited by Mendez, Tom, and Lucy. After being dismissed, Molly hides to hear what the Spartans, Mendez, and her Newparents are talking, hearing about the incidents happening on Project: GOLIATH's site and how its repeating itself in several human colonies, and some internal problems between the humans and the Sangheili inside Sarcophagus. After hearing that, Molly interrupts the discussion to say her opinion about how is hard to get over the ghosts of the war. During the discussion, Molly notes [[Kasha 'Hilot]], headmaster of the [[Pax Institute]], is outside her home. Although initially reluctant, Molly greets Kasha, with both talking about the Institute and its students. Kasha hopes Molly and her family became good allies with the rest of Paxopolis, but Molly is not very convinced of it.

On Hesduros, "Pale Blade" orders to some of his forces to bring [[Even Keel]], a [[Huragok]], to fix the slispace portal near Panom, and, as a sign of "gratitude" to Panom's kaidon, he leaves behing a complement of vehicles and weapons for Panom's warriors in case the Swords of Sanghelios show up again on Hesduros. After crossing the portal, "Pale Blade" and his forces arrive inside Sarcophagus, where he has a heated discussion with [[Buran 'Utaral]], and recalls [[Raia 'Mdama|his mother's]] death, the disappearance of both his father Jul and his brother [[Asum 'Mdama|Asum]], and his recruitment into the Servants by [[Avu Med 'Telcam]]. The Servants establish a basement inside a Forerunner facility and take notice of a pair of Marines, who were exploring the surroundings; "Pale Blade" orders to kill them both.
