As the rest of the unit began retreating from the planet, the Spartans and Lopis traveled to the [[Well of Echoes]] to detonate a [[HAVOK tactical nuclear weapon]] inside to destroy the Forerunner installation within the Montero Caves, denying the anti-UNSC president access to the installation.<ref>'''Halo: Last Light''', ''pages 289-290'' (Google Play edition)</ref> Once they retrieved the ancilla and the nuke, Blue Team and Lopis regrouped in the [[Montero Jungle]].
