With the abduction of Dr. [[Catherine Halsey]] by enemy forces, [[ | With the abduction of Dr. [[Catherine Halsey]] by enemy forces, [[Admiral]] [[Serin Osman]], head of the [[Office of Naval Intelligence]], ordered Lasky to assassinate the doctor before 'Mdama's Covenant could glean any sensitive intel from her. Sarah Palmer was deployed from ''Infinity'' despite Lasky's admonishments to the contrary. As soon as she was out of earshot, Lasky contacted [[Fireteam Majestic]] and asked them to rescue Dr. Halsey without telling them that Palmer was en route. The Spartans returned to 'Mdama's Covenant's base and [[Skirmish at Librarian's Rest|engaged]] the sentries outside while Thorne used his recently-acquired cloaking unit to slip inside. At the same time, Dr. Halsey unlocked the shield set up by Glassman and entered the Librarian's shrine. Inside she was greeted by the [[Librarian]]'s [[mind transfer|imprint]], which presented to her the two pieces of the [[Janus Key]], an artifact that would reveal the location of every piece of Forerunner technology in the galaxy. Once she reappeared outside the shrine, Jul 'Mdama snatched one of the halves away from her, not noticing the second piece in Halsey's hand. At that moment Thorne broke a nearby sentry's back, killing the other with his assault rifle. Halsey tossed the other half of the Janus Key to Thorne. Just as a sword-wielding warrior was about to kill him from behind, it was felled by Palmer. A pair of Promethean Knights appeared to protect 'Mdama and Halsey, but not before Palmer shot the doctor in the left shoulder. The rest of Majestic appeared and fought through the army of Prometheans alongside Palmer. Before they could reach the cornered 'Mdama, a Knight appeared and teleported away with him and the injured doctor.{{Ref/SpOps|Id=key|Key}} | ||
Following Halsey's abduction, ''Infinity'' dispatched all fireteams from both ''Infinity'' itself and three {{Class|Vindication|light battleship}}s to search for her. [[Fireteam Crimson]] was [[Battle of Cyclone|dispatched]] to "[[Cyclone]]" where Halsey had been routing communications through the area before she was snatched. With the help of beam turrets and [[Aggressor Sentinel]]s under the Librarian's control, Crimson was able to access 'Mdama's Covenant data terminal with the Librarian aiding Roland and Dr. [[Lani Truman]] with the decryption as she prepared to transmit herself to the [[Absolute Record]]. Both the decryption and transmission became stalled at 99%, resulting in Crimson opening the breaker on the power source in the area. The Librarian's imprint was broadcast to the Absolute Record in the form of a massive data stream while Halsey's signal was determined to have bounced to "[[Control]]".{{Ref/SpOps|Id=tsfh|Key|The Search for Halsey}} At "Control", where [[Boa Squad]] had been wiped out by 'Mdama's Covenant, Crimson fought off the occupying forces and activated the comm terminals in the area. 'Mdama's Covenant received backup in the form of Prometheans, but Crimson was able to hold them off long enough for Roland to determine that the signal next bounced to "[[Apex]]". Once Crimson got to a safe location, [[Robert Dalton]] commenced an aerial bombardment of "Control," wiping out the remaining Promethean forces.{{Ref/SpOps|Key|Clean Up}} At "Apex," Crimson discovered the area protected by multiple Covenant shields and heavily fortified by infantry troops supported by [[Ru'swum-pattern Phantom|Phantoms]]. Using [[M808C Scorpion|Scorpion tanks]], Crimson fought through the occupying forces of 'Mdama's Covenant and Prometheans, allowing Roland to determine the signal next bounced to "[[Lockup]]".{{Ref/SpOps|Key|Science Mountain}} | Following Halsey's abduction, ''Infinity'' dispatched all fireteams from both ''Infinity'' itself and three {{Class|Vindication|light battleship}}s to search for her.
