In [[2558#February|February 2558]], [[Jul 'Mdama's Covenant]] sent archaeological teams in this area. They were after one of the [[Requiem slipspace artifacts]], buried in a structure behind one of the canyon walls, and thus brought a [[Za'zayara-pattern Harvester|Harvester]] to excavate it.{{Ref/Reuse|Artifact}} The {{UNSCShip|Infinity}} found out about the dig when [[Fireteam Crimson]] [[Raid on the Warrens|hacked into a Covenant intel center]] in the "[[Warrens]]" and ordered [[SPARTAN-IV Program|Spartan]] [[Fireteam Switchback]] to uncover the Covenant projects there. Switchback managed to disable the Harvester, but are overwhelmed by enemies: the leader [[Cara Costabile]] was killed, while the team was captured and later imprisoned at the "Warrens." ''Infinity'' sent [[TJ Murphy|Lieutenant Murphy]]'s stolen [[Type-44 Phantom|Phantom]] and [[Fireteam Crimson]] to investigate. Three [[F-41 Broadsword|Broadswords]] were also sent to survey the area and soften up the resistance. Crimson only found Switchback's blank [[IFF]] tags, but the Spartans themselves were nowhere to be seen. After [[Raid on Harvester|fighting]] through numerous [[Promethean]]s, Crimson boarded the Harvester. Crimson eliminated the Harvester's crew and severely damaged the controls to ensure that the Harvester was permanently disabled.<ref>''Spartan Ops'', [[Scattered/Switchback|S106 Switchback]]</ref>

The Covenant later retook the area. They captured [[human]] scientists in order to repair the Harvester, but they were unsuccessful as the power supply had been destroyed. Later, Fireteam Crimson was once again dispatched to the Harvester location. They needed to find one of the [[Requiem slipspace artifacts|artifacts]] that could free ''Infinity'' from the shield world's orbit. However the Spartans quickly realized that they were the ones who had previously interrupted the Covenant excavation which was uncovering the artifact. They tried to enter the Harvester to activate it, but its entrance was closed. Murphy's [[D79-TC Pelican|Pelican]] was called in for reinforcement, but three Forerunner [[Z-8250 heavy artillery|anti-aircraft guns]] threatened him. [[Roland]] managed to hack the guns' shields so that Crimson could take them out. The Pelican was then able to approach the Harvester and destroyed its shield door. Crimson entered the vehicle and killed its crew. The Spartans then proceeded to free the scientists, but were unable to activate the Harvester as the power supply had been destroyed.<ref name="Artifact">''[[Spartan Ops]]'', [[Exodus (Spartan Ops)/Artifact|S1010 Artifact]]</ref> They went to [[Apex]] to retrieve a [[Kmiro'sish-pattern Lich|Lich's]] power supply as a replacement.<ref>''Spartan Ops'', [[Exodus (Spartan Ops)/Seize the Power|S1010 Seize the Power]]</ref>
