| In the [[97,445 BCE|final year]] of the [[Forerunner-Flood war]], the [[Ur-Didact]] used a [[Composer]]—a secret massive [[Forerunner]] device capable of converting living beings into digital form that was long abandoned—in order to convert his loyal [[Promethean]] warriors into [[Promethean Knight]]s to combat the Flood with risk of infection, but failed due to their insufficient number.{{Ref/Game|Halo 4|[[Terminal (Halo 4)|Terminal 5]]}}{{Ref/Game|Id=terminal6|Halo 4|[[Terminal (Halo 4)|Terminal 6]]}} During the [[Flood]] and [[star road]]s' [[Battle of the greater Ark|invasion]] of the [[Greater Ark]], while attempting to gain additional Knight forces in his mechanized army, returned to [[Requiem]], the Didact took his personal [[flagship]] ''[[Mantle's Approach]]''—supported by thousands of [[sentinel]]s under his command—to [[Omega Halo]], the youngest of dozen original [[Halo Array|Halo installations]], and fired the Composer upon the ring to harvest the installation's entire [[Erde-Tyrene civilization|human population]], which was the majority of the remaining human specimens the [[Librarian]] had taken from [[Earth]].{{Ref/Reuse|terminal6}}{{Ref/Novel|Novel=Halo: Silentium|Detail=Strings 31-32}} The Ur-Didact would serve the loss of the biological form of the human race by being forever imprisoned into digital form as the final punishment for [[Human-Forerunner wars|defying]] the Forerunners earlier when [[ancient humanity|ancient mankind]] used to be their rival, until their [[Battle of Charum Hakkor|downfall]].{{Ref/Reuse|terminal6}} He would also plan to eradicate what remains of humanity, along with every other "suspect" species that may threaten the Forerunners' hold of the [[Mantle]], to ensure that only the Forerunners would be worthy to hold the Mantle.{{Ref/Novel|Novel=Halo: Silentium|Page=289}}

| The loss of most of mankind, and Didact's betrayal, prompted the Librarian to have the Didact exiled into a [[Cryptum]] for a second time, now viewing the [[Warrior-Servant]] as a traitor by the [[IsoDidact]] for his genocide and also deserting the Forerunners.{{Ref/Reuse|Id=strings34}}{{Ref/Novel|Novel=Halo: Silentium|Detail=Strings 33}} When the Didact was imprisoned by his wife in a "combat" Cryptum previously maintained on ''Mantle's Approach'' at the [[core of Requiem]], after being incapacitated by two shots from a [[Z-750 binary rifle]], the Librarian hoped her husband would spend his time in meditation reflecting upon his past misdeeds, and that the damage wrought on his mind by the Gravemind, would be corrected with aid from contact with the [[Domain]].

In an effort the warn ''Infinity'' of Requiem's gravity well, John-117 and Cortana disabled two energy pylons inside Requiem's core in order to eliminate interference emitted from a satellite in the core. When John-117 attempted to contact ''Infinity'' in the satellite, it was revealed that the [[Didact]] had purposely manipulated ''Infinity'' signal to trick John-117 into releasing him from his [[Cryptum]]. The Didact openly declared war on humanity and gained control of the mechanized Prometheans as well as the Covenant remnant forces.

While looking for a way to contact ''Infinity'', John and Cortana accidentally triggered Requiem's guardians, the Prometheans.{{Ref/Level|Id=Requiem|Game=Halo 4|Level=[[Requiem (level)|Requiem]]}} The Prometheans attacked the Spartan as well as Jul's Covenant. In an effort the warn ''Infinity'' of Requiem's gravity well, the Spartan-AI team disabled two energy pylons inside [[Core of Requiem|Requiem's core]] in order to eliminate interference emitted from a satellite in the core. When John attempted to contact ''Infinity'' in the satellite, it was revealed that the [[Ur-Didact|Didact]] had purposely manipulated ''Infinity''{{'}}s signal to trick John-117 into releasing him from his [[Cryptum]]. The Didact openly declared war on humanity and resumed control of his mechanized Prometheans; viewing the Didact as a living god, the Covenant forces followed suit.{{Ref/Reuse|Forerunner}}

| |
| As the ''Infinity'' and her fleet continued to approach Requiem, the ship's control systems were swiftly hacked by the Didact as Requiem once again opened one of its portals and pulled the ''Infinity'' into the shield world, causing violent explosions inside the supercarrier as her approach went chaotic, with her parked vehicles crashing into one another.{{Ref/Reuse|The Commissioning}} John escaped Requiem's core just as ''Infinity'' entered Requiem's outer shell.{{Ref/Level|Id=Forerunner|Game=Halo 4|Level=[[Forerunner (level)|Forerunner]]}}

| |
| ''Infinity'' crashed into a jungle inside Requiem and was immediately attacked by Promethean and Covenant forces. During the attack, ''Infinity''{{'}}s commanding officer, [[Andrew Del Rio|Captain Andrew Del Rio]], deployed [[UNSC Marine Corps|Marines]] and [[SPARTAN-IV Program|SPARTAN-IVs]] for reconnaissance, believing that the ''Infinity'' would be able to fend off her attackers while providing support for ground forces. The ill-prepared Marines were overwhelmed by the unfamiliar Prometheans, and suffered heavy casualties. In addition to losing their landing zones, many [[D79-TC Pelican|Pelican dropships]] were shot down. ''Infinity'' was eventually boarded, allowing the Didact to extract information about the [[Composer]], a Forerunner superweapon, from the ship's mainframe. John-117 joined Commanders [[Thomas Lasky]] and [[Sarah Palmer]] just as Captain Del Rio recalled ground forces to ''Infinity''. John cleared a landing zone for the UNSC forces and headed to ''Infinity''{{'}}s crash site. There, John-117 and a squad of SPARTAN-IVs broke through to one of ''Infinity''{{'}}s hangar bays. John piloted a [[HRUNTING/YGGDRASIL Mark IX Armor Defense System|Mantis assault mech]] and fought through ''Infinity''{{'}}s maintenance corridors to some of the ship's weapon systems, and, after John destroyed the Covenant jammers near the control terminals, ''Infinity'' disabled two ''CRS''-class light cruisers and damaged the Didact's Cryptum, prompting the Forerunner to retreat.{{Ref/Reuse|Infinity}} The repaired ''Infinity'' left her crash site, but since she was still under the effect of Requiem's gravity well, Captain Del Rio sent John-117 and [[Gypsy Company]] to take down the Forerunner anti-air [[particle cannon]]s near the gravity well generator.{{Ref/Level|Id=rec|Game=Halo 4|Level=[[Reclaimer (level)|Reclaimer]]}}

| At some point during the battle, at 1604 hours, Cortana conversed with the original shipoard AI of the ''Infinity'', [[Aine]], who was heavily damaged by the time the ''Infinity'' crashed, for a dozen seconds, asking her for help with the ship's crew. However, Aine, noticing Cortana's [[rampancy]] may kill even more of ''Infinity''{{'}}s crew, and the deactivation of her central power core at Cortana's hands, declined. She subsequently threatened her with informing Captain Del Rio to lock Cortana and John-117 on the ship or articulate the [[Unified Earth Government]]'s policy for final dispensation as Cortana continued to ignore advice from Aine. In response, Cortana accidentally broke down Aine's matrix, killing her as a result while the AI believed that Aine could have accepted the opportunity to let Cortana and John-117 help the shipboard AI.{{Ref/Generic|Id=datadrops7|Heading=[[Halo Legendary Crate]]|Subheading=[[Halo Legendary Crate/Data Drops|Data Drop #7]]|Detail=[[:File:LC 07 doc2.jpg|JUNE 21, 2557 1604:02:28 // UNSC INFINITY]]}} The conversation was recorded as the "Cyroraeth Dialogue", and the story of the functional death of Aine was kept a secret to the majority of ''Infinity''{{'}}s crew, believing the former shipboard AI was terminated upon the ''Infinity''{{'}}s impact on Requiem.{{Ref/Generic|Id=TCD|Heading=[[Halo Legendary Crate]]|Subheading=[[Halo Legendary Crate/Data Drops|Data Drop #7]]|Detail=[[:File:LC 07 doc2.jpg|THE CYRORAETH DIALOGUE]]}}

| |
| Gypsy Company, aboard a [[Mobile Anti-Aircraft Weapons Platform M510 Siegework/Ultra-Heavy|Mammoth]] led by Commander Lasky, destroyed the first and second anti-air particle cannons. However, a Covenant [[Kmiro'sish-pattern Lich|Lich]] heavily damaged the Mammoth, and even though John-117 and a SPARTAN-IV team destroyed the Lich, the Mammoth was forced to stop when it approached a Forerunner structure.{{Ref/Reuse|rec}}
| |
|
| |
| John entered the structure and, with Cortana's help, disabled the last two anti-air cannons. Cortana suddenly disappeared, prompting John to search the structure for her. He was taken to an archived personality of the [[Librarian]], the Didact's wife, and the one who saved humanity from the [[Halo Array|Halos]]. The Librarian informed John of the Didact's plan to imprison humanity in digital form with the Composer. In doing so, she altered John-117's genes, an action that would prove itself useful when the Didact's forces [[Raid on Ivanoff Station|raided Ivanoff Station]]. John-117 returned to a UNSC convoy led by [[Master Sergeant]] [[Marcus Stacker]] and eventually reached Requiem's gravity well generator. Using targeting data provided by the Spartan, ''Infinity'' destroyed the generator.{{Ref/Reuse|rec}}

| ===The Didact's departure===
| |
| {{Quote|Do you truly believe these theatrics can prevent my departure? Embrace your sad fate and retain your nobility - I am already beyond you.|The Didact to Master Chief{{Ref/Reuse|Shutdown}}}}
| |
| Following the destruction of the gravity well generator, the Master Chief and Cortana began to push for Captain Del Rio and ''Infinity'' to assault the Didact's Cryptum, and destroy it, to keep the Didact from leaving Requiem. However, Del Rio refused to believe the two, calling their encounter with the Librarian "the hallucinations of an aging Spartan and his malfunctioning AI." This belief was furthered when Cortana's [[rampancy]] caused her to have an angry outburst. While Del Rio ordered Commander Lasky to remove Cortana's data chip to be destroyed, the Master Chief took it instead, telling Del Rio that if he wouldn't stop the Didact, the Master Chief would do it himself. The Master Chief refused Del Rio's orders to stand down, and ordered Lasky to warn Earth of the coming threat from the Didact. Lasky was then ordered to prevent the Master Chief's departure by any means necessary but recognized that it was too dangerous to risk the Chief being wrong about the Didact. Instead, Lasky had a [[G79H-TC Pelican|Pelican gunship]] prepared for full combat pursuit of the Master Chief but instead gave the dropship to the Spartan.{{Ref/Level|Id=Shutdown|H4|[[Shutdown]]}}

|
| |
| [[File:H4-Mantle-Departure.jpg|300px|thumb|Failing to imprison the Forerunner leader any longer, the Didact eventually escapes aboard ''Mantle's Approach'' and began to initiate his vengeful plan to destroy the humanity once and for all.]]
| |
| The Master Chief departed ''Infinity'' in the Pelican, as ''Infinity'' and her crew made their escape from Requiem. Without ''Infinity's'' firepower to back them up, Cortana suggests instead disrupting the communications at two of the towers near the Didact's Cryptum, which would allow her to forge an override code and lower the Didact's shields so they could reach him. Using the Pelican's cannons, the Master Chief was able to destroy the [[Ru'swum-pattern Phantom|Phantom]] dropships guarding each tower and make his way within. Inside each tower, the Master Chief fought his way through 'Mdama's determined Covenant and Promethean defenders, and used an EMP in one tower to destroy a carrier wave generator, and destroyed the attenuators in another tower, giving Cortana the opportunity to lower the Didact's shields. All through this, the Didact telepathically taunted the Master Chief about the futility of his actions.{{Ref/Reuse|Shutdown}}
| |
|
| |
| With the Didact's shields down, Cortana suggested another course of action: reach the tower that controlled the spires surrounding the Didact's Cryptum, and use the controls to encase the Cryptum in the towers to keep it from leaving Requiem. The Master Chief returned to his Pelican gunship and used it to reach the third tower, encountering no further aerial resistance along the way. Inside the tower, the Master Chief came up against a massive force from 'Mdama's Covenant defending both levels of the tower. including two [[Hunter]]s and several [[Sho'riru-pattern Shade|Shade]] turrets and [[Is'belox-pattern Banshee|Banshees]]. The Master Chief was eventually able to reach the control panel where he inserted Cortana, who took control of the tower system. Cortana initially moved the towers to imprison the Didact's Cryptum, but her rampancy got the best of her and she instead dropped the towers.{{Ref/Reuse|Shutdown}}
| |
|
| |
| Unable to imprison the Didact any longer, the Master Chief decided to move across some nearby [[Kmiro'sish-pattern Lich|Liches]] heading for the Cryptum in order to reach the Didact. However, after he landed on the first Lich, the Cryptum merged with the Forerunner ship ''[[Mantle's Approach]]'' and joined a fleet heading out into space. Unable to stop the Didact from leaving, the Master Chief hitched a ride on the Lich as it followed the Didact's ship into [[slipspace]].{{Ref/Reuse|Shutdown}}

| |
| ===Didact's plans===
| |
| The Didact would [[Raid on Ivanoff Station|arrive]] at Ivanoff Station and despite the efforts of the UNSC, he obtained the Composer, and digitized practically everyone on the station, excluding John-117 who was saved thanks to genetic augmentations provided by the Librarian.{{Ref/Level|H4|[[Composer (level)|Composer]]}} The Didact then set course for [[Earth]], with the intent of digitizing its population, but was [[New Phoenix Incident|ultimately stopped and defeated]] by John-117.{{Ref/Reuse|Midnight}}
| |
|
| |
| ===Requiem===
| |
| With the ''Infinity'' and the Master Chief gone, Requiem remained under Promethean and 'Mdama's Covenant control. After leaving Requiem, Captain Del Rio was relieved of duty by the UNSC Security Council due to his decision to leave the Master Chief on Requiem, and Commander Lasky was promoted to captain of the ''Infinity''.{{Ref/Reuse|Midnight}}
| |
|
| |
| The UNSC would not return to Requiem until six months later, when the ''Infinity'' was again deployed to the shield world to establish research bases and obtain useful Forerunner technologies, resulting in a [[Requiem Campaign|larger-scale but indecisive battle]] against Prometheans and Jul 'Mdama's Covenant, which led to the eventual destruction of Requiem along with the rest of the [[Epoloch system]].{{Ref/Reuse|SOE1}}
