The Master Chief departed ''Infinity'' in the Pelican as ''Infinity'' and her crew made their escape from Requiem. Without ''Infinity's'' firepower to back them up, Cortana suggests instead disrupting the communications at two of the towers near the Didact's Cryptum which would allow her to forge an override code and lower the Didact's shields so they could reach him. Using the Pelican's cannons, the Master Chief was able to destroy the [[Ru'swum-pattern Phantom|Phantom]] dropships guarding each tower and make his way within. Inside each tower, the Master Chief fought his way through 'Mdama's determined Covenant and Promethean defenders and used an EMP in one tower to destroy a carrier wave generator and destroyed the attenuators in another tower, giving Cortana the opportunity to lower the Didact's shields. All through this, the Didact telepathically taunted the Master Chief about the futility of his actions.{{Ref/Reuse|Shutdown}} | The Master Chief departed ''Infinity'' in the Pelican as ''Infinity'' and her crew made their escape from Requiem.

With the Didact's shields down, Cortana suggested another course of action: reach the tower that controlled the spires surrounding the Didact's Cryptum and use the controls to encase the Cryptum in the towers and keep it from leaving Requiem. The Master Chief returned to his Pelican gunship and used it to reach the third tower, encountering no further aerial resistance along the way. Inside the tower, the Master Chief came up against a massive force from 'Mdama's Covenant defending both levels of the tower including two [[Hunter]]s and several [[ | With the Didact's shields down, Cortana suggested another course of action: reach the tower that controlled the spires surrounding the Didact's Cryptum and use the controls to encase the Cryptum in the towers and keep it from leaving Requiem.

The Master Chief was eventually able to reach the control panel where he inserted Cortana who took control of the tower system. Cortana initially moved the towers to imprison the Didact's Cryptum, but her rampancy got the best of her and instead she dropped the towers.{{Ref/Reuse|Shutdown}} | ||
Unable to imprison the Didact any longer, the Master Chief decided to move across some nearby [[Kmiro'sish-pattern Lich|Liches]] heading for the Cryptum to reach the Didact. However, after he landed on the first Lich, the Cryptum merged with the Forerunner ship ''[[Mantle's Approach]]'' and joined a fleet heading out into space. Unable to stop the Didact from leaving, the Master Chief hitched a ride on the Lich as it followed the Didact's ship into [[slipspace]].{{Ref/Reuse|Shutdown}} | Unable to imprison the Didact any longer, the Master Chief decided to move across some nearby [[Kmiro'sish-pattern Lich|Liches]] heading for the Cryptum to reach the Didact.
