{{Article | {{Article Quote|[[2526]]. It has been more than a year since humanity first encountered the hostile military alliance of alien races known as the [[Covenant]], and several weeks after the [[United Nations Space Command]]'s devastating counterattack of Operation: SILENT STORM was deemed an overwhelming success. The UNSC has put its faith in the hands of the [[SPARTAN-II program|Spartans]], led by the legendary Master Chief, [[John-117]]: enhanced super-soldiers raised and trained from childhood via a clandestine black ops project to be living weapons. | ||
But the Covenant—enraged and fearful of their enemy’s unexpected strategies and prowess—is not taking its recent defeat lightly, and is now fully determined to eradicate humanity from existence, brutally overrunning the ill-fated planets of the [[Outer Colonies]] faster than retreats can be ordered. | But the Covenant—enraged and fearful of their enemy’s unexpected strategies and prowess—is not taking its recent defeat lightly, and is now fully determined to eradicate humanity from existence, brutally overrunning the ill-fated planets of the [[Outer Colonies]] faster than retreats can be ordered. | ||
If the UNSC has any chance of stemming the tide of the war, the Master Chief and [[Blue Team]] must drop onto an empty, hellish world in order to capture a disabled [[Covenant frigate]] filled with valuable technology. It has all the makings of a trap, but the bait is far too tempting to ignore—and this tantalizing prize is being offered by a [[Nizat 'Kvarosee|disgraced and vengeful]] Covenant [[fleetmaster]], whose sole opportunity for redemption lies in extinguishing humanity’s only hope of survival... | If the UNSC has any chance of stemming the tide of the war, the Master Chief and [[Blue Team]] must drop onto an empty, hellish world in order to capture a disabled [[Covenant frigate]] filled with valuable technology.

==Plot synopsis== | ==Plot synopsis== | ||
In the year 2526, mere months after first contact with the Covenant at Harvest, the UNSC is desperately fighting on the planet [[Mesra]] with the objective of denying vital resources to the enemy. Blue Team is deployed to the surface, aided by the [[24th Marine Engineering Brigade]]. As Blue Team fails to stop an assault of [[Drones]] and [[Wraiths]], they are exfiltrated by the UNSC Night Watch, a prowler under the command of Amalea Petrov. The Spartans are briefed on their next mission: a salvage operation on the planet Netherop, where intelligence gathered from a Battle Group X-Ray wolfpack indicated a downed Covenant frigate, designated Lucky Break. As the Night Watch is in slipspace, Fleetmaster Nizat ‘Kvarosee is recalled to High Charity for debriefing by the High Prophets. ‘Kvarosee is blamed for the loss of several Covenant assets: the Ring of Mighty Abundance, the supercarrier Hammer of Faith, and two cities previously inhabited by the Forerunners. ‘Kvarosee, knowing that he will be ordered executed by the Silent Shadow, decided to use the Lucky Break, Covenant name Steadfast Strike, as bait for a trap for Spartans. Meanwhile, the Night Watch arrives at Netherop and deploys their troops to the surface, getting shot down in the process. As soon discovered, Netherop is lethally hot. Petrov tasks Blue Team with capturing the Licky Break as it is their only means of escape. En route to the crash site, Fred-104 sees what he believes to be human children watching him. | |||
