On [[2549|September 9, 2549]], when she was 16, she was on Arcadia during the planet's [[Fall of Arcadia|fall]].<ref>'''Halo: Escalation''', ''Issue #7''</ref> Grant joined the [[UNSC Navy]] at a young age and was later accepted into the SPARTAN-IV program after its inception. Her athleticism and combat skills gained her placement in an operational division in which she field-tested early versions of [[MJOLNIR Powered Assault Armor (GEN2)|MJOLNIR GEN2]].

Initiated by [[Sarah Palmer|Commander Palmer]], the mission turned into a competition for the fireteams as to who could complete their mission objectives first. Majestic took the lead at first but were eventually beaten.<ref>'''Spartan Ops''', ''[[The Challenge]]''</ref> | ||

When Thorne went missing the rest of Majestic set out to find him. They eventually found Thorne in the nick of time, with [[Paul DeMarco|DeMarco]] shooting [[Gek 'Lhar]] ('Mdama's second-in-command) right before the [[Sangheili|Elite]] could kill their comrade.<ref>'''Spartan Ops''', ''[[Expendable]]''</ref> Several skirmishes later, [[Thomas Lasky|Captain Lasky]] contacted Majestic via hologram and asked them to rescue Dr. | When Thorne went missing the rest of Majestic set out to find him.

When they arrived at Halsey's location Grant, Hoya, and Madsen took position above the entrance and waited for Thorne to signal to attack. When he did Grant yelled to the Elites to distract them; Majestic quickly opened fire on several Elites. Grant and the rest of Majestic showed up to help Thorne just as Promethean Knights teleported into the area and engaged them. 'Mdama managed to escape with Halsey just as Thorne and Palmer closed in on him.<ref>'''Spartan Ops''', ''[[Key]]''</ref> | ||
Sometime later Commander Palmer and Majestic were ordered to deactivate one of the two [[Requiem translocation artifact|translocation artifacts]] binding ''Infinity'' to Requiem; Crimson was tasked with deactivating the other.<ref>'''Spartan Ops''', ''[[Exodus]]''</ref> Majestic faced significant Covenant resistance in deactivating their device. While making their way to the artifact Grant tossed a grenade that killed at least one Elite. Majestic succeeded in deactivating the artifact shortly after Crimson.

On March 11, six days after DeMarco's death on [[Ealen IV]], ''Infinity'' arrived in the [[Artesia-702 system]] having received a distress signal from the damaged [[freighter]] ''[[Pilgrims Pride]]''. When the ship set an ambush inside ''Infinity''<nowiki>'</nowiki>s sub-vessel deployment bay, Fireteam Majestic was dispatched along with Fireteams [[Fireteam Colossus|Colossus]] and [[Fireteam Fenrir|Fenrir]] to repel the attack by preventing the freighter from self-destructing inside ''Infinity''. As team Majestic advanced to the freighter's core, they encountered and quickly disabled multiple [[M202 XP machine gun|automated defense turrets]]. As the enemy went into retreat, the freighter was tugged out back into space, where Grant ejected its core before it exploded. The Spartans survived the detonation and requested pickup.<ref>'''[[Halo: Escalation]]''', ''Issue #4''</ref> | |||

Following the attack, ''Infinity'' learned the freighter's assault crafts seemingly belonged to the long-lost {{UNSCShip|Spirit of Fire}} and tracked their origin to [[Oth Lodon]], a gas giant located deep in [[Jiralhanae]] space. With the ''Spirit''<nowiki>'</nowiki>s possible location found, [[Terrence Hood|Fleet Admiral Hood]] authorized a search and rescue mission. Equipped with [[OF92 Booster Frame]]s, Commander Palmer and Fireteam Majestic scouted the planet's system and came across not the ''Spirit of Fire'' but a [[Oth Lodon station|Covenant station]] controlled by [[New Colonial Alliance]] insurgents.<ref name="HE5">'''Halo: Escalation''', '' | Following the attack, ''Infinity'' learned the freighter's assault crafts seemingly belonged to the long-lost {{UNSCShip|Spirit of Fire}} and tracked their origin to [[Oth Lodon]], a gas giant located deep in [[Jiralhanae]] space.

Palmer immediately ordered Majestic to take control of the station. After evading oncoming missiles on their Booster Frames, the Spartans quickly boarded the station and secured the bridge, ordering everyone to freeze. The Spartans apprehended Captain [[Daniel Clayton]], a UNSC defector and the mastermind behind the [[Battle of Ealen IV|attack on Ealen IV]]. They then turned their attention to his associate [[Vata 'Gajat]], who was preparing to assault the crippled ''Infinity''. With the station's cannon back online, they fired on 'Gajat's flagship, destroying it and saving ''Infinity''.<ref name="HE6">'''Halo: Escalation''', ''Issue #6''</ref> | ||

By March 22, Fireteam Majestic was stationed aboard the [[orbital defense platform]] ''[[Oaxaca Station]]'' while ''Infinity'' underwent repairs. Grant was unable to sleep well as the station did not feel home like ''Infinity''. She woke up Thorne, who was having nightmares about the [[New Phoenix Incident|attack on New Phoenix]] eight months ago, and the two discussed attending the reopening of [[New Phoenix]]. Thorne was at first reluctant to return to the city. However, Grant insisted that he visit his home and offered to accompany him as "backup", seeing as they had nothing to do for the next three weeks. Two days later, they attended New Phoenix's Rebirth ceremony presided by [[Unified Earth Government|UEG]] [[President of the Unified Earth Government|President]] [[Ruth Charet]]. Thorne then took Grant to [[Thorne family|his family]]'s home and showed her around. | By March 22, Fireteam Majestic was stationed aboard the [[orbital defense platform]] ''[[Oaxaca Station]]'' while ''Infinity'' underwent repairs.

While exploring the house, Thorne discovered a violin belonging to his grandmother. He concluded that his grandmother had been practicing it when the attack occurred. Distraught, Thorne decided he wanted to leave but Grant told him the story of how she was on her home planet when it [[Fall of Arcadia|fell]]. Grant told Thorne that he should be happy to still have a home to return to and that his dreams were trying to tell him to relieve all the pain he had inside. Grant then left Thorne as he decided to honor his family by playing his grandmother's violin. Three weeks later, they returned to ''Infinity'' and departed from Earth. Grant was able to sleep well again and Thorne was no longer having nightmares, thanks to Grant's support. | While exploring the house, Thorne discovered a violin belonging to his grandmother.
