During the Created occupation of Sanghelios in [[2559]], Vale was stationed in a villa in the state of [[Vadam]] to serve as a liaison between Arbiter Thel 'Vadam and his human allies. While there, she would speak with the Arbiter nearly every day. In late 2559, the [[Xenoarchaeology|xenoarchaeologist]] [[Keely Iyuska]],{{Ref/Novel|Id=Out2|Out|Chapter=2}} who was friends with Vale,{{Ref/Novel|Id=Out5|Out|Chapter=5}} visited her in Vadam to deliver important information and request her assistance. While investigating protogenic civilizations using the [[UNSC]]'s [[Military Survey of Uninhabited Planets]], she came across a record of a Guardian being sent to [[Netherop]] to subdue a [[List of unidentified species#Netherop|civilization]] there. However, this civilization managed to defeat the construct, implying that the secret to overcoming Cortana's Guardians may be hidden on Netherop.{{Ref/Reuse|Out2}} Vale spent a day reviewing everything regarding the planet that she could dig up, ultimately coming to the conclusion that they needed to visit Netherop.{{Ref/Reuse|Out5}}

After receiving approval for the mission from her superiors, Vale went with Keely to [[Outer Colonies|Outer Colony]] of [[Gao]] to recruit [[Roselle|Rosa Fuertes]] as a consultant. Rosa was a member of the [[Castoffs]]—a group of children and young adults rescued from Netherop by Blue Team over three decades prior—and would be an invaluable resource on the expedition. Vale and Keely hired a [[pipistrelle]] piloted by [[Arturo Ramus]] to take them to Rosa's home in [[Paraiso]], a village deep in the jungle. Under the guise of medical researchers studying a newly-encountered [[Wikipedia:Prion|prion disease]], both Vale and Keely wore medical scrubs rather than armor. The armed men protecting the village suspected that the two women were agents of the [[Office of Naval Intelligence]] and resisted letting them see Rosa. However, with some monetary incentive and a show of force from Vale, the two spoke with Rosa Fuertes, who agreed to come with them to Netherop, despite being afflicted the prion disease.{{Ref/Reuse|Out5}}
