Template:Battle Infobox The Battle of Nuusra was a conflict between the remnants of Jul 'Mdama's Covenant, the Swords of Sanghelios (aided by UNSC forces), and Promethean forces on October 27, 2558.[1]
The battle
- "These are pre-Covenant Sangheili ruins. They were already ancient history before humanity built the pyramids."
- — Olympia Vale commenting on the ruins in Nuusra.
Rescuing the Arbiter
With the UNSC needing to access to the Guardian at Sunaion, Fireteam Osiris was deployed to Nuusra to meet up with Arbiter Thel 'Vadam.[1] By this point, the remnants of Jul 'Mdama's Covenant invaded Nuusra in an attempt to assassinate 'Vadam who became cornered in the Elder Council Chamber. Deployed by Phantom into the region, Osiris fought their way towards the Council Chamber, aided by Mantises dropped by Shipmaster Mahkee 'Chava and several Sangheili Storm. Finally, as the Arbiter was about to be overrun, Osiris and their Sangheili allies reached the Elder Council Chamber and extracted the Arbiter by Phantom.[1]
Regrouping
After the initial fight, Spartan Jameson Locke brought up the need to access the Guardian at Sunaion, but as it was the last Covenant stronghold on the planet, the Arbiter refused to commit his forces until they could be sure of victory. Dr. Catherine Halsey determined that using a Forerunner called a Constructor, she could interface with the Guardian and activate it. As Nuusra was filled with support facilities for the Guardian, it would be relatively simple to find one. Fireteam Osiris was redeployed by Pelican to visit one such facility with the Swords of Sanghelios for backup. The Arbiter saw the launch of the Guardian as a chance to crush the Covenant once and for all using the distraction the Covenant soldiers would experience upon the Guardian's launch.[2]
Retrieving the Constructor
Fireteam Osiris was then sent to a nearby Forerunner complex to retrieve a Constructor, which was to be used to gain access to Sunaion's Guardian.[3] With the help of the Arbiter's forces, Osiris was able to destroy a Kraken standing in their way. Once inside the Forerunner complex, Osiris retrieved the Constructor, defeating the Promethean forces attempting to stop them.[3]
