Following an attack on the {{UNSCShip|Donoma}} that killed [[Vice Admiral]] [[Graselyn Tuwa]] and resulted in the apparent kidnapping of her husband and children on [[2553#December|December 1, 2553]], the [[Office of Naval Intelligence]] created reports that the ''Taulanti'' had been raided by [[pirates]] in the [[Isbanola sector]]. This was done in order to legitimize [[Operation: RETRIBUTION|the cover stories]] of [[Veta Lopis]] and the three [[Spartan-III]]s of her [[Ferret]] unit, who attempted to pass themselves off as the ones who had hit the ship in order to be contacted by the [[Keepers of the One Freedom]], the group that was suspected to have attacked the ''Donoma''. The story went that ten [[HAVOK tactical nuclear weapon]]s had been stolen from the [[ammunition ship]]. While meeting with [[Ross Nyeto|a gunrunner]] that had expressed interest in purchasing half of the nukes, Veta told him that they had also scored [[Argent V missile]]s and [[Gauss]] cannons during the raid. For a few days beginning on December 8, the UNSC stopped and boarded [[S77 Crow|Crow]]s in the [[Orso system]] and notably looked for [[Archer missiles]] and [[Magnetic Accelerator Cannon|Mini-MAC]]s, leading to the assumption among some that a Crow fitted with those weapons had been behind the incident.<ref name="R1">''[[Halo: Retribution]]'', ''chapter 1''</ref> | Following an attack on the {{UNSCShip|Donoma}} that killed [[Vice Admiral]] [[Graselyn Tuwa]] and resulted in the apparent kidnapping of her husband and children on [[2553#December|December 1, 2553]], the [[Office of Naval Intelligence]] created reports that the ''Taulanti'' had been raided by [[pirates]] in the [[Isbanola sector]].
