Requiem Campaign: Difference between revisions

===The Janus Key and Halsey===

With the abduction of Dr. [[Catherine Halsey]] by enemy forces, [[Rear Admiral]] [[Serin Osman]], head of the [[Office of Naval Intelligence]], ordered Lasky to assassinate the doctor before 'Mdama's Covenant could glean any sensitive intel from her. Sarah Palmer was deployed from ''Infinity'' despite Lasky's admonishments to the contrary. As soon as she was out of earshot, Lasky contacted [[Fireteam Majestic]] and asked them to rescue Dr. Halsey without telling them that Palmer was en route. The Spartans returned to 'Mdama's Covenant's base and [[Skirmish at Librarian's Rest|engaged]] the sentries outside while Thorne used his recently-acquired cloaking unit to slip inside. At the same time, Dr. Halsey unlocked the shield set up by Glassman and entered the Librarian's shrine. Inside she was greeted by the [[Librarian]]'s [[mind transfer|imprint]], which presented to her the two pieces of the [[Janus Key]], an artifact that would reveal the location of every piece of Forerunner technology in the galaxy. Once she reappeared outside the shrine, Jul 'Mdama snatched one of the halves away from her, not noticing the second piece in Halsey's hand. At that moment Thorne broke a nearby sentry's back, killing the other with his assault rifle. Halsey tossed the other half of the Janus Key to Thorne. Just as a sword-wielding warrior was about to kill him from behind, it was felled by Palmer. A pair of Promethean Knights appeared to protect 'Mdama and Halsey, but not before Palmer shot the doctor in the left shoulder. The rest of Majestic appeared and fought through the army of Prometheans alongside Palmer. Before they could reach the cornered 'Mdama, a Knight appeared and teleported away with him and the injured doctor.{{Ref/SpOps|Id=key|Key}}
