During the Requiem Campaign, Spartan Gabriel Thorne and Doctor Henry Glassman, later aided by the rest of Fireteam Majestic, staged an escape from the location known as "Librarian's Rest."

Prelude

During a mission in "the Cauldron," Fireteam Crimson were able to retrieve a mysterious Forerunner artifact that they transported back to the UNSC Infinity.[1] While examining the artifact, Doctor Henry Glassman accidentally activated it and was pulled in.[2] Glassman was transported to Requiem's surface where he was captured by Covenant forces. In exchange for his life being spared, Glassman agreed to help Jul 'Mdama access the shrine at "Librarian's Rest"[3] to gain access to the imprint of the Librarian stored within. Glassman was forced to work with inadequate equipment,[4] but eventually succeeded in activating a protective shield around the shrine, albeit without knowing exactly what he had accomplished.[5]

Due to Glassman's disappearance, Doctor Catherine Halsey was brought in to help examine the artifact.[3] Jul contacted her in secret, offering Halsey information about the Prometheans.[4] After Fireteam Crimson and Fireteam Majestic retrieved "the Didact's Gift," it was revealed to be the "soul" of a Promethean Knight, a human digitized by the Composer during the New Phoenix Incident six months earlier. As Halsey communicated with Jul about the discovery, she was found out by Commander Sarah Palmer and arrested for her actions. Spartan Gabriel Thorne, confused by the appearance of the artifact in the memories revealed in "the Didact's Gift," inadvertently activated it and was transported to "the Cauldron."[5] Despite putting up a fight, Thorne was eventually captured by two Sangheili Storm and taken to "Librarian's Rest" which was eventually detected by Roland.[6]
