[[File:Covenant Fleet Aszod.jpg|thumb|left|250px|A Covenant fleet gathers at Asźod.]]
By this point in the battle for Reach, a Covenant victory was all but inevitable. The UNSC's [[Epsilon Eridani Fleet]] had been routed by the combined Covenant fleets, and the Covenant ground invasion was now reinforced by large scale naval forces in low orbit. Surviving UNSC ground forces maintained a tenuous hold on the [[Aszod ship breaking yards|ship-breaking yards]] at [[Aszod]], the only off-planet extraction point left on the [[Eposz]] continent. UNSC convoys on the way to the shipyard in the hopes of escaping the planet were destroyed by Covenant air attacks.

By this point, NOBLE Team had been reduced to four members, with [[Jorge-052]] and [[Catherine-B320]] having been killed in action during [[Operation: UPPER CUT]]{{Ref/Level|HR|Long Night of Solace (level)|Long Night of Solace}} and the [[Siege of New Alexandria]],{{Ref/Level|Id=NA|HR|New Alexandria}} respectively. [[Jun-A266]] had been ordered to defend Dr. [[Catherine Halsey]] and to escort her away from the [[Forerunner]] [[Babd Catha Forerunner vessel|complex]] near [[SWORD Base]] to another [[Office of Naval Intelligence|ONI]] facility, [[CASTLE Base]].{{Ref/Reuse|Id=TP}} Thus, by August 30, Noble Team was effectively reduced to three operational members, including its field leader, [[Carter-A259]], as well as [[Emile-A239]], Noble Four, and [[SPARTAN-B312]], Noble Six. The three had escaped SWORD Base following [[Operation: WHITE GLOVE]], bearing a fragment of the AI Cortana, which contained data from the [[Forerunner]] ruins beneath the [[Babd Catha Ice Shelf]].{{Ref/Reuse|Id=TP}} The ''Pillar of Autumn'', docked at the Asźod facility and awaited the team's arrival with this high value package. The ''Pillar of Autumn''{{'}}s commanding officer, [[Captain (Navy)|Captain]] [[Jacob Keyes]], deployed a number of [[UNSC Marine Corps|Marines]] to other parts of the ship-breaking facility to stall the Covenant advance and to allow Noble Team to break through and deliver the package.
After a successful mission to ''[[Gamma Station]]'', the {{Class|Halcyon|cruiser}} {{UNSCship|Pillar of Autumn}} touched down in the shipyards for the transaction of an important [[The Package (data storage unit)|package]], which contained a fragment of the AI [[Cortana]], from [[SPARTAN program|SPARTAN]] [[Noble Team]]. Near the ''Pillar of Autumn'''s landing site, surviving UNSC forces engaged innumerable Covenant ground forces that were advancing toward the ''Pillar of Autumn''.

As the UNSC forces began to retreat, their land and air defenses moved to Asźod to regroup. Near the ''Pillar of Autumn''{{'}}s landing site, numerous [[M808 Scorpion]]s and [[M12 Chaingun Warthog]]s assaulted a pair of {{Pattern|Deutoros|Scarab}}s and made their way to the ''Pillar of Autumn''. While encircling the Scarabs, the UNSC forces had to avoid mortar fire from several {{Pattern|Zurdo|Wraith}}s that were also moving into Asźod from other parts of Reach. Meanwhile, a large number of [[UH-144 Falcon]]s engaged Covenant [[Type-26 Banshee]]s overhead.{{Ref/Reuse|Id=TPoA}}

===Noble Team's arrival===
By this point, NONLE Team had been reduced to four members, with [[Jorge-052]] and [[Kat-B320]] havinge been killed in action during [[Operation: UPPER CUT]] and the [[Siege of New Alexandria]], respectively. [[Jun-A266]] had been ordered to defend Dr. [[Catherine Halsey]] and to escort her away from the [[Forerunner]] [[Babd Catha Forerunner vessel|complex]] near [[SWORD Base]] to another [[Office of Naval Intelligence|ONI]] facility, [[CASTLE Base]]. Thus, by August 30th, Noble Team was effectively reduced to three operational members, including its field leader, [[Carter-A259]], as well as [[Emile-A239]], Noble Four, and [[SPARTAN-B312]], Noble Six.

The ''Pillar of Autumn'''s commanding officer, [[Captain (Navy)|Captain]] [[Jacob Keyes]], deployed a number of [[UNSC Marine Corps|Marines]] to other parts of the ship-breaking facility to stall the Covenant advance and to allow Noble Team to break through and deliver the package.
En route to the facility, the Covenant's air superiority made itself apparent to the survivors of Noble Team. Their [[D77-TC Pelican|Pelican]] was attacked by Covenant aircraft, and Carter, the team leader, was seriously injured by plasma fire. Realizing that the Pelican would be shot down before reaching the ''Pillar of Autumn'', Carter ordered Emile and SPARTAN-B312 to jump from the crippled dropship while he attempted to lure the Covenant away. Emile and SPARTAN-B312 landed in Covenant-occupied territory on the main road to the shipyard.

Emile and SPARTAN-B312 landed in Covenant-occupied territory on the main road to the shipyard.


Fighting their way to two [[M274R Mongoose]]s, Emile and B312 raced to the ship-breaking yards as fast as the ATVs could travel. Covenant opposition in the area was heavy, with Scarab walkers and numerous infantry preventing the two from shooting their way through. Using speed to their advantage, they two SPARTANs streaked past the heavy opposition, jumping a collapsed highway bridge in the process and fighting their way through a Covenant outpost on foot. Progressing through a cave, the two found their progress blocked. A Scarab had detected the presence of the two SPARTANs and had stationed itself over their route. Aware that Nobles Four and Six could not proceed without outside help, and also aware that his Pelican's primary weapon could not damage the Scarab, Carter sacrificed himself, ramming the Scarab with the dropship and destroying it.

After their path was cleared, Emile and B312 were attacked by a large swarm of [[Yanme'e]] that were hunting down troopers who had wandered through the caves seeking safety. Escaping the caves, the two SPARTANs finally reached the shipbreaking yard. The area devoted to the scrapping of the aged [[UNSC frigate]] ''[[UNSC Commonwealth|Commonwealth]]'', one of the first UNSC vessels to be destroyed during the war, had become a battleground. Covenant forces had cut off straggling [[UNSC Army|Army troopers]] and Marines from the ''Pillar of Autumn'' and infantry firefights had broken out across the facility. With the assistance of Emile and Noble Six, the UNSC forces cut their way through to the drydocks.{{Ref/Reuse|Id=TPoA}}

After the SPARTANs reached the rendezvous point for the transfer, a furious battle broke out between the advancing Covenant soldiers and the surviving UNSC forces. The Covenant, sensing their victory and wishing to stop the escape of the humans, deployed waves of [[Kez'katu-pattern Phantom|Phantom dropships]] and Banshees to overwhelm the human defenses. While SPARTAN-B312 led the surviving Marines against the Covenant ground forces, Emile manned a [[mark 2488 Magnetic Accelerator Cannon|"Onager" mass driver]] that had been mounted on top of the facility, using it as a makeshift anti-aircraft battery. The sheer power of the mass driver, aided by the ''Pillar of Autumn''{{'}}s point defense guns, devastated the Covenant assault waves, but the Covenant fought relentlessly, sacrificing dropships willingly to get their troops on the ground. Despite Emile's best efforts, a number of [[Jiralhanae]]-led forces fought furiously against the remaining UNSC forces. The Covenant had the advantage of numbers, but the UNSC held the high ground and the Covenant infantry assault was repulsed. With the landing zone clear, Captain Keyes personally took a Pelican to the rendezvous point, where he was met by SPARTAN-B312.

[[File:Keyes n' Six.jpg|250px|left|thumb|Keyes taking possession of [[Cortana]]'s fragment.]]
Keyes promptly took possession of the package, but the Covenant, realizing that their ground attack had failed, deployed a {{Pattern|Ket|battlecruiser}} to destroy the facility and to block the ''Pillar of Autumn''{{'}}s escape. Keyes ordered Emile to cover the ship's escape and the SPARTAN prepared to oblige. However, as Keyes boarded his Pelican and prepared to return to the ''Pillar of Autumn'', with Noble Six in tow, the landing zone was attacked by a Phantom dropship that managed to slip through the UNSC defensive barrage. The Pelican escorting Keyes was destroyed by a barrage of plasma from the Covenant dropship, which took up position by the mass driver and dropped off a team of [[Sangheili Zealot]]s to eliminate Emile and the threat of the mass driver. Emile, although caught by surprise, reacted swiftly and killed the first Zealot at point-blank range with his shotgun. Emile's victory was short-lived, as a second Zealot impaled him from behind with an [[Type-1 Energy Weapon/Sword|energy sword]]. However, Emile valiantly challenged his attacker, stabbing it in the neck before they both fell to their deaths.{{Ref/Reuse|Id=TPoA}}


However, Emile's death left the mass driver unmanned, and the ''Pillar of Autumn'' was rendered vulnerable to the advancing Covenant battlecruiser. Noble Six decided to commandeer the mass driver, thus forsaking transport off-planet, to ensure the ''Autumn''{{'}}s safe passage into space. The Covenant, aware of the threat posed by the mass driver, had deployed a team of Sangheili Zealots, led by a [[Sangheili Field Marshal|Field Marshal]], to prevent the gun from being manned; however, after a hard fight, Noble Six killed them and manned the mass driver. The battlecruiser, undeterred, or perhaps unaware of the danger of the mass driver, continued to advance on the shipyard. The Covenant warship charged its ventral [[energy projector]], preparing to destroy the ''Pillar of Autumn''; however, in order to fire, the ship needed to drop the [[Energy shielding|shield]] around the weapon. Turning the cannon on the battlecruiser, SPARTAN-B312 fired a round straight into the ship's unshielded energy projector port. The slug's impact disrupted the finely tuned magnetic field controlling the energy projector and the plasma gutted the ship, sending it plummeting to the surface of Reach. The ''Pillar of Autumn''{{'}}s path was clear, and the cruiser immediately launched.{{Ref/Reuse|Id=TPoA}}
