- "Get the Package to the Autumn!"
- — Carter-A259 to SPARTAN-B312
The Package was the code name for a data storage unit used by Dr. Catherine Halsey to store a fragment of the AI Cortana. During the Fall of Reach, Noble Team's final objective, and ultimately that of SPARTAN-B312, was to get the Package, and the sensitive data it contained, off the planet on the UNSC Pillar of Autumn.[1]
The Package appeared to be a reinforced metal cylinder with a hollow section in the center, which contained a data crystal chip. The fragment of Cortana that was within the Package contained the "latchkey discovery" made by Laszlo Sorvad and the information decrypted from the Babd Catha Forerunner complex. Because Noble Six's Mark V[B] armor lacked the neural interface upgrades necessary to integrate an AI with the NJOLNIR's systems, Cortana must be carried via the Package.[2]
Trivia
- In the level The Pillar of Autumn, Noble Six hooks The Package to his/her back armor, much like an armor ability.
