It takes place around the destroyed [[SWORD Base]], as well as in an interior cavern underneath the facility. [[Noble Team]] is ordered to destroy Sword Base in [[Operation: WHITE GLOVE|a torch-and-burn op]]. [[Noble Six]] and a small strike force of [[Orbital Drop Shock Troopers]] infiltrates Sword Base to take out [[Covenant]] [[Cheru-pattern Tyrant|anti-air turrets]]. On their way to the facility, the team finds an operational [[M808C Scorpion|Scorpion tank]] that they use to fight through Covenant forces around Sword Base.

Noble Six arrives at Sword Base, and the entire team pushes through to a set of prearranged coordinates. However, there is nothing there.

On the way down, [[Catherine Halsey|Dr. Halsey]] reveals herself as the one who orchestrated their arrival.
