As Jerome and Isabel, with support from a unit led by Alice, neared the platform, their Pelicans were shot down by Banished turrets guarding the lift. The Spartans managed to survive the crash and reunite with a unit of UNSC [[sniper]]s. Needing a clear path to the grav lift, Jerome requested Alice take care of the anti-air turrets surrounding the grav-lift. Deciding to utilize the [[Kodiak]]s, Alice positioned the vehicles on the edge of the cliff near the platform and ordered them to fire on the Banished ordnance.<ref name="Under The Dark" /> | As Jerome and Isabel, with support from a unit led by Alice, neared the platform, their Pelicans were shot down by Banished turrets guarding the lift.

With the particle cannon finally having managed to break through the ''Enduring Conviction''<nowiki>'</nowiki>s shields, Jerome was notified that he was clear to board and all remaining UNSC personnel underneath the carrier were extracted immediately.<ref name="Hold the Line" /> | With the particle cannon finally having managed to break through the ''Enduring Conviction''<nowiki>'</nowiki>s shields, Jerome was notified that he was clear to board and all remaining UNSC personnel underneath the carrier were extracted immediately.<ref name="Hold the Line" /> | ||
Arriving inside the carrier, Jerome made quick work of the [[Sangheili]] in the area before inserting Isabel into a nearby [[holotank]]. Accessing the vessel's firing systems, Isabel managed to fire its underside energy projector. As the plasma beam penetrated the surface of the Ark's salvage moon, the installation's sentinels, in a desperate attempt to stop the destruction, launched themselves at the weakest part of the carrier. As the sentinels cut away at the vessel, Jerome held off Jiralhanae reinforcements. With the sentinels having done enough destruction to the carrier, the energy projector shut down and the front section of the vessel began to separate. Retrieving Isabel from the holotank, Jerome, in a move seemingly inspired by [[John-117]]’s jump from orbit to atmosphere in [[2552]], proceeded to jump out of the newly-formed opening, dodging debris as he descended to the Ark's surface.<ref name="Under The Dark" /> | Arriving inside the carrier, Jerome made quick work of the [[Sangheili]] in the area before inserting Isabel into a nearby [[holotank]].
