===Evacuation of Draetheus V===
Across Draetheus-V, the effects of the activation of the moon's Forerunner structure were being felt. Enormous slabs of rock were slowly floating away from the planet's surface and both UNSC and Covenant troops were scrambling to get to safety. Spartan Palmer needed to get every last survivor off Dratheus-V as soon as possible. But as the planet started to disintegrate, a panic rippled through every infantry unit on the field. A coordinated retreat would be impossible. Fighting her way through hordes of fleeing Covenant in a rapidly disintegrating base, she managed to secure jetpacks to get her to safer ground.<ref>'''Halo: Spartan Assault''', ''[[Mission 16:Escape from the Southern Field|Escape from the Southern Field]]''</ref>

Despite the chaos, some [[Covenant remnant|Covenant]] forces remained rooted in strategic locations within the area around Faraday Base. The few surviving [[UNSC Marine Corps|Marines]] and base staff had set up defensive positions in the western sector of the facility, preparing for a last stand against the increasing influx of Covenant. [[SPARTAN-IV Program|SPARTAN]] [[Sarah Palmer|Palmer]] arrived at the base's perimeter moments before the Marines would be overrun. Around the base, Palmer managed to secure several [[M313 Heavy Recovery Vehicle|Elephants]]. She then needed to relieve the besieged Marines and get them out of their predicament.<ref>'''Halo: Spartan Assault''', ''[[Mission 17: Liberation of Faraday|Liberation of Faraday]]''</ref>
