Learning what had happened, Osiris moved to destroy the gravitational cores holding the Cryptum in place, while fighting Jul 'Mdama's Covenant and Promethean forces. Before Osiris could retrieve Blue Team, however, Cortana removed the Cryptum from its resting point and placed it within a Guardian. In a final effort to free Blue Team, Exuberant led Osiris to an elevator which led to a communications relay from which Cortana maintained control of the Genesis installation. After Osiris defeated several waves of Promethean forces, Exuberant was able to activate the elevator. Osiris made their way to the relay, significantly hampered by the concussive blasts of the Guardian which held the Cryptum. Locke finally reached the relay core and destroyed it, breaking Cortana's control over Genesis and freeing Exuberant to release a swarm of [[Constructors]]. The Constructors forced the Cryptum from the Guardian's grasp just before it entered slipspace. The Constructors opened the Cryptum and Blue Team was reunited with Osiris.{{Ref/Reuse|h5gguardians}}

Unbeknownst to the humans and the Forerunner constructs, Blue Team's rescue was aided by the digitized consciousness of the [[Ur-Didact]]. Although angry at [[John-117]] for killing him, the Didact decided to help in order to deal with the greater threat of Cortana while exacting some revenge upon her by making the AI lose what valued most. Slipping into the circitry of the operating console in the Guardian's hold, the Didact weakened the tether by squeezing on the fiber relay to the hardlight grappling code, weakening it enough for the Constructors to sever the connection and pull the Cryptum free. An enraged Cortana trapped the Didact within his own worst memories in the [[Domain]],{{Ref/Novel|Id=Epi16|Epi|16}} but the Didact was eventually rescued by the [[Librarian]].{{Ref/Novel|Id=Epi18|Epi|18}}
