Biography[edit]

Battle of Installation 04[edit]

Main article: Battle of Installation 04

Satha was one of many Marine personnel assigned to the UNSC Pillar of Autumn in August 2552, serving in the battalion commanded by Major Antonio Silva. With the Fall of Reach on August 30 of that year, the Autumn was able to escape the planet's destruction, arriving at Installation 04 along with its crew and complement, including Corly. Covenant forces immediately began an attempted boarding action of the ship, prompting a general evacuation as the Autumn was crashed onto the surface of the ring.

After Landing on Installation 04, Satha served in B Company, commanded by Melissa McKay. They were a part of McKay's force during the attack on Alpha Base, and accompanied McKay's company in an assault on the site. During the assault, Satha was the one to notice a large metal grate of Forerunner construction underneath the base - something which would become a pivotal point for a later attack by the Flood.[1]

Satha's fate following the capture of Alpha Base is uncertain, though they were almost certainly killed by the time of Installation 04's destruction three days later - along with the rest of the UNSC contingent on the ring.
