Two Giants: Difference between revisions

In early [[2558]], the area known as Two Giants was behind Covenant enemy lines. [[Mountain Squad]], a [[UNSC Marine Corps]] squadron crashed their [[D79-TC Pelican|Pelican]] behind enemy lines. In response [[Commander]] [[Sarah Palmer]] deployed [[Fireteam Crimson]] to the area, where they combated a steady battlegroup of some Covenant and [[Promethean]] forces. Though they rescued Mountain Squad, Crimson was sent to investigate one of the [[Beam emitter]]s and activate it so Dr.[[Catherine Halsey]] could analyze it. The emitter sent out a pulse and triggered a Covenant response. <ref name="Catherine">'''Spartan Ops''', [[S1/Catherine|S1E3 ''Catherine'']]</ref> A [[CCS-class battlecruiser]] was attracted and sent in waves of [[Type-44 Troop Carrier|Phantoms]] to Crimson's position. Crimson was beating them off, but needed equipment help, prompting [[Robert Dalton]] to drop in [[HRUNTING/YGGDRASIL Mark IX Armor Defense System|Mantis]] mech suits for the team. The Spartans utilized them and defeated the Covenant battlegroup, while [[Cyrus Shaw]]'s [[Charon-class light frigate]] destroyed the battle cruiser. Crimson then left the location. <ref name="Catherine"/> However the area was re-taken by [[Jul 'Mdama]], and Crimson located him at Two Giants. Defeating minimal Covenant forces, Crimson found that 'Mdama had escaped using [[Slipspace translocation]]. Crimson was able to open a portal of their own, and left Two Giants, getting teleported to the [[Fortress (location)|Fortress]]. <ref>'''Spartan Ops''', [[S1/Didact's Hand|S1E4 ''Didact's Hand'']]</ref>
