In February [[2558]], the [[Covenant remnant|reformed Covenant]] sent archaeological teams in this area. They were after a Forerunner artifact, and thus brought a [[Type-58 Ultra-Heavy Site Excavator/Embedded|Harvester]] to excavate it. The {{UNSCShip|Infinity}} ordered [[SPARTAN-IV Program|SPARTAN-IV]] [[Fireteam Switchback]] to uncover the Covenant projects there. However, Switchback was overwhelmed by enemies: the leader [[Cara Costabile]] was killed, while the team was captured and later imprisoned at [[Warrens]]. ''Infinity'' sent [[TJ Murphy|Lieutenant Murphy]]'s [[Type-44 Troop Carrier|Phantom]] and [[Fireteam Crimson]] to investigate. Three [[F-41 Broadsword|Broadswords]] were also sent to survey the area. Crimson only found Switchback's IFF tags, but the Spartans themselves were nowhere to be seen. After fighting several [[Promethean]]s, Crimson discovered the enormous vehicle that the Covenant had brought. The Covenant were killed and the Harvester's consoles were severely damaged by Crimson.<ref>'''Halo 4''', Spartan Ops Episode 6 Chapter 5 ''[[S1/Scattered/Switchback|Switchback]]''</ref>

The Covenant later retook the area. They captured [[human]] scientists in order to repair the Harvester, but they were unsuccessful as the power supply had been destroyed. Later, Fireteam Crimson was once again dispatched to the "Harvester" location. They needed to find one of the [[Requiem translocation artifacts|artifacts]] that could free ''Infinity'' from the shield world's orbit. However the Spartans quickly realized that they were the ones who had previously interrupted the Covenant excavation. They tried to enter the Harvester to activate it, but its entrance was closed. Murphy's [[D79-TC Pelican|Pelican]] was called in reinforcement, but three Forerunner anti-aircraft guns threatened him. [[Roland (AI)|Roland]] managed to hack the guns' shields so Crimson could take them out. The Pelican was then able to approach the Harvester and destroyed its shield door. Crimson entered the vehicle and killed its crew. The Spartans then proceeded to free the scientists, but were unable to activate the Harvester as it was too damaged.<ref>'''Halo 4''', Spartan Ops Episode 10 Chapter 1 ''[[S1/Exodus/Artifact|Artifact]]''</ref> They went to [[Apex]] to retrieve a [[Deployment Platform Type-56 Ground Support/Ultra Heavy|Lich]]'s power supply.<ref>'''Halo 4''', Spartan Ops Episode 10 Chapter 3 ''[[S1/Exodus/Seize the Power|Seize the Power]]''</ref>
