New Tyne | In [[2553|March 2553]], [[Malcolm Geffen]] and [[Vasily Beloi]] infiltrated New Tyne with the help of [[Mike Spenser]]. It was here they discovered that [[Staffan Sentzke]], [[Naomi-010]]'s father, had joined the Insurrectionist movement.<ref>''Halo: Glasslands'', p. 449</ref> Later, in April of that year, [[Kilo-Five]] resumed their investigation of New Tyne following actions on [[Sanghelios]]. Naomi and Vaz alerted Spenser when they spotted Sentzke in company with Shipmaster [[Sav Fel]], the possessor of the stolen Covenant battlecruiser ''[[Pious Inquisitor]]''. Naomi and Vaz went to [[Stavros' Middle East Asian Cuisine and Bar|Stavros's bar]] where they met [[Nairn]], a member of the militia. Later on, Mal and Vaz also met up with Nairn and successfully infiltrated the militia. | ||
After Sav mysteriously disappeared, his mate, [[Nor Fel]], consolidated power and wealth in New Tyne in the form of a [[Nor Fel's clearing house|a clearing house]]. [[Operation: RETRIBUTION]] took place in the city as well. | |||
