On December 3, 2525, a large [[Covenant]] force [[Battle of Alpha Corvi II|invaded]] Alpha Corvi II, deploying thousands of ground forces to the capital city of [[Jamshid]] while also sending an expeditionary force to Black Reef via [[~~Type~~-25 Spirit|dropship]]. Upon landfall, the URF forces under Whitaker's command immediately rushed to the base's defense, where the Covenant slaughtered the entire civilian population and any rebels who stood in their way. While the URF fought to repel the invaders, the Covenant sent nearly a hundred infantry into the island's vast cave system in search of an unknown [[Forerunner]] artifact. During this, [[Spartan-II program|Spartan-II supersoldier]] [[John-117]] of [[Blue Team]] introduced himself to Captain Whitaker and informed him of the severity of the threat posed by the Covenant, convincing the rebels to align themselves with the Spartans to retake the island.
