===ICE DANCE===

Upon arriving in the [[Kolaqoa system]], [[Colonel]] [[Marmon Crowther]] of the [[21st Space Assault Battalion]] decided that his [[ODST]]s and the [[SPARTAN-II program|Spartans]] that would be assisting in the operation should practice a mass deployment into the [[Seoba Ice Quarry|ice quarry]] where Task Force Yama would be hiding. Ghost Flight was selected to deploy the Black Daggers and [[Blue Team]], with each prowler carrying forty ODSTs and one Spartan. However, as the flight approached the moon, insurrectionist forces were detected in the quarry, preparing to overthrow Biko's chancellor. Despite this, Crowther decided to go forward with Operation: ICE DANCE and clear out the quarry.{{Ref/Reuse|HSS7}}
