On December 2559, Cortana died at the [[Battle for Zeta Halo]], leaving the Created leaderless and without the [[Guardian Custode|Guardians]]. Determined to continue Cortana's work and to bring back unity and purpose to the now splintered Created, Sloan put into motion the FIREWALL contingency, a living simulation meant to leverage intimate knowledge of Forerunner armiger technology and Mjolnir armor schematics to accelerate the exploration and development of cybernetic essence vessels known as Executors.
