Months after her death, fragments of Cortana's data lingered in and around the Repository, manifesting themselves as ghostly echos of various memories.{{Ref/Reuse|Repository}} | ||
At some point during the [[Battle for Zeta Halo]], at least three [[UNSC]] [[marines]] entered the Repository and battled the [[Aggressor Sentinel]]s guarding it. The outcome of this battle is unknown, but the bodies of the humans and Sentinels who fell in this fight were later discovered by [[John-117]].{{Ref/Reuse|Repository}} Also at some point during the war, the [[Banished]] | At some point during the [[Battle for Zeta Halo]], at least three [[UNSC]] [[marines]] entered the Repository and battled the [[Aggressor Sentinel]]s guarding it. The outcome of this battle is unknown, but the bodies of the humans and Sentinels who fell in this fight were later discovered by [[John-117]].{{Ref/Reuse|Repository}} Also at some point during the war, the [[Banished]] and the [[Harbinger]]'s [[Skimmer]]s occupied the Repository and allied themselves with (or took control of) the facility's Sentinels.{{Ref/Reuse|Repository}} | ||
On [[2560#May|May 28, 2560]], shortly after the Master Chief and [[the Weapon]] infiltrated the [[Command Spire (location)|Command Spire]] and [[The Command Spire|shut down]] the [[Reformation Spire|Spire]] network, [[Blademaster]] [[Jega 'Rdomnai]] hijacked [[Pelican]] ''[[Echo 216]]'' and kidnapped the pilot, [[Fernando Esparza]]. Determined to rescue Esparza, the Chief had the Weapon open [[Teleportation grid#Installation 07|a portal]] that would take them as close as possible to wherever Jega and his prisoner were heading.{{Ref/Quest|Id=The Command Spire|HI|Reformation|The Command Spire}} The portal sent the Chief through a data cluster where he experienced a dream-like vision of Cortana's memories. Upon waking up, the Chief found himself inside of the Repository. The Chief and the Weapon explored the underground facility and found a terminal, which the Weapon used to determine that they had arrived near a Banished fortress. [[War Chief]] [[Escharum]] then contacted them and demanded that the Spartan face him at the [[House of Reckoning (location)|House of Reckoning]]. Escharum threatened to continue torturing Esparza until the Master Chief accepted his challenge.{{Ref/Reuse|Repository}} | |||
As the Chief and the Weapon made their way to the surface, they came across other data clusters containing more of Cortana's memories. The memories showed Cortana's increasingly ruthless tactics during the [[Created conflict]], culminating in the destruction of the [[Jiralhanae]] homeworld, [[Doisac]]. Upon witnessing these memories, the Weapon realized that she was actually an exact copy of Cortana created by [[Catherine Halsey]]. The Master Chief confirmed this and explained it was the only way to defeat Cortana. Terrified of becoming exactly like her predecessor, the Weapon asked the Chief to delete her. However, the Chief refused and said they needed to work together to rescue Esparza. The Chief and the Weapon then left the Repository and returned to the surface.{{Ref/Reuse|Repository}} | As the Chief and the Weapon made their way to the surface, they came across other data clusters containing more of Cortana's memories.
