In [[2558#October|October 2558]], the [[Created]] sent a [[Guardian]] to [[Subjugation of Earth|neutralize forces]] opposing the newly established empire's rule. When the Guardian arrived over Sydney, the ''Plateau'' and the patrolling Broadswords engaged the massive construct, though the fighters were easily destroyed and the frigate's armaments proved ineffective. The Guardian proceeded to release an [[electromagnetic pulse]] across the city, disabling the ''Plateau'' and sending the frigate falling towards Sydney. ~~The city's fate is unknown; if~~ the ''Plateau''{{'}}s engine core detonated upon impact, Sydney would have been destroyed. Only a handful of individuals, including [[Terrence Hood]] and [[Serin Osman]], escaped Sydney.{{Ref/Reuse|rw}}

Luckily the frigate crashed without detonating its engine, so the city survived but not for long. Between October 2558 and December 2559 Cortana called on Lord Hood to submit to her enforcement of peace across the galaxy. When Hood refused her, she responded by attacking Sydney with a Guardian, resulting in the total destruction of the city.
