In February of [[2558]], the [[Spartan Operations|Spartans]] of [[Fireteam Crimson]] recovered a Forerunner [[Requiem slipspace artifacts|artifact]] from meddling [[Jul 'Mdama's Covenant|Covenant]] archaeologists and brought it aboard ''Infinity''. Just moments after unloading, the object began draining power from the ship, causing it to drift towards [[Requiem]]'s entry corridor. [[Sarah Palmer|Commander Sarah Palmer]] was able to clamp herself to the deck and temporarily deactivate the artifact by kicking it, allowing further examination by Infinity Science. Glassman, by physical interaction, unintentionally reactivated the object and subsequently "pulled" the doctor in, almost taking [[Tom Lasky|Captain Lasky]] in the process.<ref>''[[Spartan Ops]]'', [[Artifact (Spartan Ops)|S102 Artifact]]</ref>

The artifact translocated him deep within the [[Vale Citadel]] - a Covenant-held site on Requiem where he was beaten and interrogated by [[Sangheili]] soldiers.

As Glassman and Thorne continued their escape, Glassman grew tired and needed to rest. He asked why they were walking and why Thorne didn't contact ''Infinity''. Thorne informed him his comm gear wasn't working. He asked Thorne how much further to where they were going and Thorne answered that they were headed for [[Galileo Base]], a few kilometers away. Thorne soon realized there was a cloaked Sangheili in the area and informed Dr. Glassman to get to safety. Before he could escape they were attacked by [[Gek 'Lhar]]. Glassman attempted to help Thorne fight him but was easily thrown aside. When Thorne was stunned, Glassman attempted to steal Gek's [[energy sword]], but the Sangheili stepped on his arm, breaking it. Just before Gek could kill them both, the Elite was killed by the arriving Fireteam Majestic. They proceeded to take devices off of Gek, DeMarco got his energy sword, Thorne took his [[active camouflage]] and Madsen found a map of Requiem.<ref>''[[Spartan Ops]]'', [[Expendable|S108 Expendable]]</ref> Majestic and Glassman soon became pinned down by three [[Ra'aam-pattern burst cannon|plasma artilleries]] at [[Cyclone]], but [[Fireteam Crimson]] and [[Fireteam Kodiak]] took them out and saved the team.<ref>''Spartan Ops'', [[Expendable/Majestic Rescue|S108 Majestic Rescue]]</ref> At Glassman's request, Fireteam Crimson traveled to [[Control]] to test Glassman's ability to read the map [[Madsen]] recovered from Gek which Glassman believed could help free ''Infinity'' from Requiem.

Glassman was left pleased by the results which confirmed his interpretation of the map.<ref>''Spartan Ops'', [[Expendable/Glassman|S108 Glassman]]</ref>

The team was forced to flee and fight their way through a Covenant battalion in order to reach an undamaged hangar bay. When Dr. Glassman succumbed under the hazardous conditions of the ship and fainted, Tanaka carried and defended him from hostile attacks. Ayit 'Sevi soon procured a Phantom and transported everyone directly to Jul 'Mdama's flagship, ''[[Song of Retribution]]''. With news that 'Mdama would push forward to the portal and reach the Absolute Record, the team resolved to split-up. Glassman remained aboard the ''Song'' with Palmer and Tanaka, while Thorne and 'Sevi returned to ''Annihilation'' in an attempt to use its communications to contact ONI.<ref>'''[[Halo: Escalation]]''', ''[[Halo: Escalation Issue 20|Issue #20]]</ref>

However, Glassman and the others did not stay undiscovered for long. When the ''Song'' entered the portal and reached the Record, the [[Invariant Bias|Custodian]] [[ancilla]] monitoring the facility detected the presence of [[Reclaimer]]s aboard and summoned the humans from the ship, revealing their presence to the Covenant. The ancilla assembled both factions to inquire as to who was the rightful owner of the Janus Key and of the Record, but an outbreak of weapons fire from Jul's warriors caused the custodian to kill all the Elites except Jul.<ref>'''Halo: Escalation''', ''[[Halo: Escalation Issue 21|Issue #21]]</ref> It then tested both parties with a hypothetical scenario to see if they could be trusted with the Record's power, but Halsey interrupted the test by hacking the ancilla, disabling it and giving herself control of the Record.<ref>'''Halo: Escalation''', ''[[Halo: Escalation Issue 22|Issue #22]]</ref>

As Jul called reinforcements, Tanaka and Palmer fended off attacking Covenant while protecting Glassman, but were rescued by the timely intervention of a Sentinel. It turned out to contain the backup memory of the custodian AI, who requested the humans' help in restoring its control.<ref>'''Halo: Escalation''', ''[[Halo: Escalation Issue 23|Issue #23]]</ref> Tanaka and Palmer defended the Sentinel, and it reactivated its old body to overpower Halsey and take control of the Record from her. However, the Record began to fall apart after Jul ordered it fired upon to disrupt the Sentinel attacks, but Glassman aided Tanaka and Palmer in escaping by activating the local teleportation grid. They used it to teleport to the ''Breath of Annihilation'', and were hidden there by 'Sevi until the ship returned to Sangheili space, after which the humans covertly escaped and were picked up by a UNSC [[prowler]].<ref>'''Halo: Escalation''', ''[[Halo: Escalation Issue 24|Issue #24]]</ref>

By the time Commander Kolby made contact with Gläsmann he and the other personnel had been converted to the Covenant religion, and all but Gläsmann had stepped into a radiation chamber.
