History
During the Requiem campaign in 2558, Covenant archaeological teams were operating in this location, and the Template:UNSCship sent Spartan-IV Fireteam Crimson to investigate the area. After dispatching the Covenant forces in the area, Fireteam Crimson was under attack from Promethean forces, and found the Requiem translocation artifact hidden in the facility. The team then extracted the artifact and evacuated the area.[1]
A science team was deployed to the base, led by Dr. Morgan Rivera. They came under attack by Covenant forces and were forced to flee behind an energy shield. Fireteam Crimson responded to their distress beacon and cleared out the Covenant forces. The science team was rescued, but they were not seen when the Covenant re-took the location.[2]
Fireteam Crimson later tracked Jul 'Mdama to this location in their continued pursuit of him and gave chase before he narrowly escaped an airstrike coordinated by Commander Sarah Palmer and Robert Dalton and teleported to safety. In his hasty getaway, he dropped a mysterious artifact known as the 'Didact's Gift', which was later retrieved by Crimson and transported to Galileo Base for further study.[3]
Sometime later, UNSC forces set up a forward operations base known as "Magma" in the area. In February 2558, Magma came under attack by Covenant forces, forcing them to send a distress signal. Fireteam Crimson was sent in response. The Covenant focused their attack on the base's generators. Crimson, along with Marine and Mantis support were able to hold off multiple Covenant waves. After successfully holding off the attack, Roland noticed Gabriel Thorne's IFF tag in the area, when Crimson went to investigate they only found the tag, leaving Roland and Miller to wonder what happened.[4]
