On [[2558#July|July 18, 2558]], {{UNSCShip|Infinity}} was trapped in the Aktis system over the planet while on a survey mission to establish a [[Galileo II|research base]].

The team arrived on a forest island that was located in the northern part of a equatorial archipelago. [[Sarah Palmer|Commander Sarah Palmer]] led [[Fireteam Majestic]] and Spartan [[Naiya Ray]] to the shrine and eliminated the Covenant skeleton force.

The conflict continued for over seven hours, with ''Infinity'' engaged by 'Mdama's fleet while Sali 'Nyon's rebellion raged on in the Covenant's ranks. | The conflict continued for over seven hours, with ''Infinity'' engaged by 'Mdama's fleet while Sali 'Nyon's rebellion raged on in the Covenant's ranks. One member of 'Nyon's faction grew disillusioned with the rebellion, stole 'Nyon's Janus Key half, and offered it to 'Mdama's forces. Dr. Halsey, escorted by 'Mdama's Sangheili, traveled to the planet to reclaim the Key. Meanwhile, the Spartans in the Forerunner structure managed to use the local [[teleportation grid]] to travel to the surface, splitting into two groups with different destinations. Commander Palmer's team spotted the Sangheili defector with the Janus Key and upon overhearing his intentions, Palmer intended to wait for Dr. Halsey to arrive in order to eliminate her. | ||
