Aktis IV is the provisional designation for a planet outside of the human Outer Colonies in the Aktis system, a system previously uncharted by the Unified Earth Government. The planet has surface conditions habitable to humans, with the surface of the planet seemingly consisting of a large ocean with scattered island continents. The ocean was composed of an opaque, foamy substance that is of unidentified composition, though it is largely impenetrable to radar analysis.[1]
History
Aktis IV was once part of the Forerunner ecumene. The Forerunners had left behind some structures and a shrine on the surface the planet. Jul 'Mdama's reformed Covenant faction established a base of operations in the shrine with only a skeleton force to guard the outside.[1]
On July 18, 2558, UNSC Infinity was trapped in the Aktis system over the planet while on a survey mission to recover the Janus Key. Jul 'Mdama's new Covenant used a Forerunner artifact to interfere with the engines of Infinity to prevent the vessel from leaving the system.[2] Discovering a potential source of interference on the planet, Captain Thomas Lasky deployed a recon team consisting of two D79-TC Pelicans and three GA-TL1 Longswords to Aktis IV's surface. The team arrived on a forest island that was located in the northern part of a equatorial archipelago. Commander Sarah Palmer led Fireteam Majestic and Spartan Naiya Ray to the shrine and eliminated the Covenant skeleton force.[1]
