The Battle of the Beacon Tower was a battle between the UNSC guerilla team dubbed the boat crew and the Banished with the boat crew seeking to broadcast a message to UNSC space with the current galactic coordinates of Zeta Halo.
Prelude
On April 26, 2560, Spartan Bonita Stone encountered Banished forces using a human prisoner to get a data node with information on the ring's defensive systems and location. Engaging the Banished, Stone was able to steal the node, copy the data and corrupt the node itself before she was killed and the node taken by Jega 'Rdomnai and Gorian.[1] The next day, the boat crew found Stone's body and a grieving Nina Kovan retrieved Stone's data chip from her VISR which proved to contain the data that she had stolen from the Banished. Submonitor 091 Adjutant Veridity revealed that Stone had stolen from the Banished information on the ring's defensive systems and its current coordinates, giving the team the chance to broadcast a message to the UNSC for reinforcements.[2]
Veridity led the boat crew, joined by Spartan Tomas Horvath, to the Conservatory where they were able to free Monitor 117649 Despondent Pyre from the energy barrier that Cortana had trapped her in. After learning of the release of the Harbinger, the Monitor agreed to help use one of Zeta Halo's beacon towers to broadcast a message to the UNSC for reinforcements and provided the team with a data key that would perform a security override and instruct the tower to broadcast a message into human-occupied space with Installation 07's current galactic coordinates and the site' pertinent information. However, Despondent Pyre refused to allow Veridity to assist the humans further, unwilling to risk one of her submonitors with the Harbinger on the loose. Instead, Despondent Pyre provided Kovan with a path out of the Conservatory.[3]
