The Refuge (Requiem location): Difference between revisions

[[Sarah Palmer|Commander Palmer]], sent [[Fireteam Crimson]] to scout The Refuge at the behest of {{UNSCShip|Infinity}}'s science team. Though the area seemed empty, [[Jared Miller]] located [[Promethean Crawler]]s guarding a star chart. Crimson uploaded the data, and prepared to leave to be extracted by [[Robert Dalton]]'s [[D79-TC Pelican|Pelican]]. The door closed on Crimson and they had to fight off [[Promethean Knight]]s before the door re-opened.<ref>'''Spartan Ops''', [[S1/Departure|S1E1 ''Departure'']]</ref> [[Science Team Gagarin]] was then sent to the facility and activated a Forerunner artifact that caused the team to vanish. Crimson returned to investigate what happened to Gagarin. Prometheans attacked them as they gradually switched off the activated Forerunner technology, but the constructs were defeated by the Spartans. Crimson shut down four power generators and then left, with [[UNSC Marine Corps|Marines]] being sent to guard the Refuge. Although Gagarin's true fate was not uncovered, Jared Miller theorized that something similar to the [[Requiem slipsace artifact|the artifact]] that took Dr. [[Henry Glassman]] may have translocated the team. <ref>'''Spartan Ops''', [[Artifact (Spartan Ops)|S1E2 ''Artifact'']]</ref> Another science team was sent to the facility, led by [[Leslie Boyd]]. Using power generators at [[The Gate]], Boyd was then able to control the [[Slipspace translocation]] system on the planet. Crimson was teleported from the Gate to the Refuge where the base soon came under attack by a large number of Prometheans going after the portal technology. A few scientists had been left outside during the attack and were soon targeted as well, forcing Crimson to defend them. Eventually [[Ruiz|Dr. Ruiz]] figured out how to shut down the portal system and Crimson was able to halt the Prometheans' attack.<ref>'''Spartan Ops''', [[S1/Memento Mori|S1E5 ''Memento Mori'']]</ref> Marines from [[Warbird Company]] arrived to reinforce the area, but Covenant soon attacked them and Crimson. The Covenant deployed a shield cornering some Marines. [[Roland (AI)|Roland]] was able to hack the shield and make it vulnerable to small arms fire, allowing Crimson to destroy the shield and aid the Marines. The "[[Silent Blade]]" Covenant unit then began to reach the scientists in the safe room, while a [[CRS-class light cruiser|light cruiser]] arrived to lay siege over the Refuge. [[Fireteam Shadow]] was called upon to board and destroy the cruiser while Crimson defended the location. At first, Shadow encountered heavy resistance but was eventually able to overload the cruiser's power core and destroy it, halting the Covenant attack.<ref>'''Spartan Ops''', S1E5 ''Memento Mori</ref>
