The SPARTAN-IVs defend the ambassadors, who escape into a nearby parts depot.[16]
  • Shipmaster Vata 'Gajat arrives on Ealen IV to personally oversee the attack, while the ambassadors escape through a series of tunnels leading to a fortified redoubt in which they could take refuge in.

  • The UNSC supposedly discover the whereabouts of Spirit of Fire using data from Pilgrims' Pride. Infinity sets out to rescue the older ship. Upon arrival at the Spirit's supposed coordinates near Oth Lodon, however, they find a Covenant battlestation manned by the New Colonial Alliance. Having lured Infinity into a trap, Captain Daniel Clayton fires on the UNSC vessel with the station's energy projector, killing Commander Bradley and paralyzing Fleet Admiral Hood.[22]
  • Clayton orders 'Gajat to stop the Spartans who are en route to the station, but 'Gajat decides to destroy Infinity instead.

  • Forerunner activities on five human colonies lead to massive destruction. ONI agent Maya Sankar is reassigned to Conrad's Point,[34] one of the five colonies, under the cover of "FERO" (her alter ego as an Insurrectionist demagogue) to infiltrate and investigate the NCA-controlled colony.[35]
