| ==Introduction==
| | [[Merg Vol]]'s base on the moon was surrounded by [[Tyrant]] anti-aircraft turrets. Hearing of [[Sarah Palmer|Spartan Palmer]]'s theft of [[Parg Vol]]'s ship, Merg Vol ordered every flying craft to be shot down, the only exception being commanding officers' [[Type-52 Troop Carrier|Phantom]]s. |

| Having successfully piloted the Phantom through the Covenant fleet orbiting [[Draetheus V]]'s [[X50|moon]], Palmer was able to land south of Merg Vol's camp, out of range of his turrets. Her Trojan Horse tactic had worked. Although she was closing in on Merg Vol, she still had to fight her way through a heavily fortified camp of his most seasoned soldiers. If only she could persuade them to leave the safety of their positions. | | Having successfully piloted the Phantom through the Covenant fleet orbiting [[Draetheus V]]'s [[X50|moon]], Palmer was able to land south of Merg Vol's camp, out of range of his turrets.

| [[Sarah Palmer|Spartan Sarah Palmer]] exits [[Parg Vol]]'s {{Pattern|R'shwupa|Phantom}}. Nearby, a [[Kig-Yar Minor]] is patrolling. Palmer eliminates him, alerting several other Kig-Yar nearby. North, a [[Sangheili Minor]] leads a [[lance]] of [[Unggoy Major]]s. Palmer encounters them and, after a brief firefight, she manages to kill them all. Nearby is the base of one of the Tyrant anti-aircraft turrets. Several Sangheili and Kig-Yar Minors exit it and join the fight. As the Spartan continues to battle the Covenant soldiers coming from within the Tyrant, Kig-Yar, Unggoy, and Sangheili forces enter the fray from all directions. Meanwhile, a [[Jiralhanae Chieftain]] enters the area from the far west and upon seeing the Spartan, charges at Palmer. Shortly after the Brute Chieftain's arrival, a [[Stealth Sangheili]] stalks Palmer and attacks her when she nears. | | [[File:HSA Star Gold.png|32px]] 150,000 |

| Spartan Palmer is eventually successful in eliminating the Sangheili and Jiralhanae Chieftain. While more Kig-Yar and Unggoy—including [[suicide attack|suicidal]] [[Unggoy Minor]]s—enter the battle, several [[Sangheili Major]]s exit the Tyrant's base and attack the Spartan. After Palmer is successful in killing dozens of Kig-Yar, Sangheili, and Unggoy forces, a second Jiralhanae Chieftain exits the Tyrant and charges at Palmer. Eventually, she manages to kill him. From the north, a third Jiralhanae Chieftain enters the Tyrant's clearing and attacks. However, Palmer is successful in killing him too. With the Chieftain dead, all Covenant forces in the area have been eliminated.

| ==Trivia==
| |
| ===Strategy===
| |
| *The best strategy is to move through the passages leading to the left side of the Tyrant and kill the Jackals encountered there which can be done through assassination. Upon reaching the front of the gun, the easiest way to fight the overwhelming numbers of Covenant that will attack is to hijack the [[Zurdo-pattern Wraith|Wraith]] in the area and use its guns to shoot down every Covenant you can. Eventually, all that will be left will be a few Covenant and one of the [[Jiralhanae Chieftain]]s outside of Wraith range. After eliminating them, return to the Wraith and use its weapons to kill the two other Chieftains which will be in range of the Wraith.
