==Universe and lore==
This map is set in and around a [[UNSC]] research site on a desert cliff on an unknown [[Natural satellite|moon]]. The facility was constructed for the purpose of studying a mysterious [[Forerunner]] artifact. To further study the artifact, the UNSC dug into the cliffside, creating a cavern system.{{Ref/Reuse|YTSept22Update}} Off the edge of the cliff, a large Forerunner [[Forerunner starship|starship]] can be seen [[terraforming]] the desert beneath it. Several smaller Forerunner structures or machines can be seen levitating in the surrounding area, with one located immediately in front of the UNSC base.{{Ref/Reuse|S3MapModePreview}}{{Ref/Reuse|YTS3MapPreview}}
Oasis is set in and around an [[Office of Naval Intelligence]] research facility atop a cliffside on a far-flung [[Natural satellite|moon]].{{Ref/Reuse|YTSept22Update}}{{Ref/Site|Id=CFEchoes|URL=https://www.halowaypoint.com/news/canon-fodder-echoes-with-dinh|Site=Halo Waypoint|Page=Canon Fodder - Echoes With-Dinh|D=24|M=03|Y=2023}} In early [[2553]], [[ONI Section Three]] initiated [[Operation: INTERIOR EXILE]], a recon mission with the goal of establishing this research site that would serve to examine a dormant [[Forerunner]] [[Forerunner starship|starship]] embedded in the moon's rocky terrain. However, this initial effort ended in failure, with agents [[Hieu Dinh|Dinh]] and [[Padraig]] being among the few survivors.{{Ref/Site|Id=S3Intel|URL=https://www.halowaypoint.com/news/echoes-within-intel|Site=Halo Waypoint|Page=Halo Infinite - Echoes Within Intel|D=27|M=03|Y=2023|LocalArchive=Halo Infinite Story & Intel}}{{Ref/Reuse|CFEchoes}}
 
Ultimately, the facility was constructed and to further study [[Lifeworker terraforming vessel|the vessel]], ONI dug into the cliffside, creating a cavern system,{{Ref/Reuse|YTSept22Update}} seemingly discovering an mysterious artifact in a fissure below the base.{{Ref/Map|Id=Oasis|HINF|Oasis (map)|Oasis}} At some point after the [[The Reclamation|start]] of the [[Created uprising]] in [[2558#October|October 2558]], the [[Created]] managed to take control of the dormant vessel. By [[2560]], an unnamed Created-aligned [[artificial intelligence]] has reactivated the vessel's creation engines, beginning the process of [[terraforming]] the desolate world as part of a wish to create life where there was once none and to follow in the footsteps of the Forerunner [[Lifeworker]]s.{{Ref/Reuse|S3MapModePreview}}{{Ref/Reuse|CFEchoes}}{{Ref/Reuse|S3Intel}}

In objective modes, gaining a point will cause the Forerunner vessel's terraforming beam to fire. In non-objective modes, the beam will fire randomly.{{Ref/Reuse|Oasis}}
