The '''Core Room Antechamber''' was a massive chamber located at the center and core of the Forerunner-constructed [[Onyx]]. The Antechamber served as the only entrance to [[Shield World]]. Upon the powering up of the [[Halos]], the Antechamber is always reachable by and via specific Slipstream Translocation Devices, however, the Core Room is only accessible for a short time and duration after the Halos are activated.<ref name="GoO">'''[[Halo: Ghosts of Onyx]]''', ''page ??''</ref>


The actual entrance to Shield World was itself in the center of a large stepped structure within the Antechamber, which [[Franklin Mendez]] compared to Hell in Dante's Inferno, although it was really more representative of Mount Purgatory. The structure would gradually 'flatten' until it became level with the ground. At this point, the entrance to the Shield World would be sealed.<ref name="GoO"/>

The Antechamber was the site of a desperate rearguard and strategic action by [[Spartan-II]]'s and [[Spartan-III]]'s led by [[Spartan-051]] against [[Covenant]] forces under [[Voro 'Mantakree]] during the [[Battle of Onyx]] in [[2552]]. The Antechamber was destroyed with [[FENRIS Nuclear Warhead]]s by Spartan-051, who sacrificed himself to deny the Covenant access to Shield World.<ref name="GoO"/>
