After destroying the Proto-Gravemind, the ''Spirit of Fire's'' A.I [[Serina]] located Anders' signal, which was apparently in the middle of an ocean. While the ''Spirit'' was hovering over the sea, the doors of a huge submerged entry into the planet opened and several [[Foreunner]] [[Sentinel]]s flew out. The ''Spirit of Fire'' became locked into a powerful docking mechanism and inevitably began a controlled 'fall' into the rift.'''Halo Wars''' ''cutscene [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z0dXxJaGbPM&feature=player_embedded "Open Sesame Part Two"]''

The remaining UNSC forces on the Shield World's surface had less than twenty minutes to fight their way past hundreds of Flood forms before being airlifted back to the ''Spirit of Fire''. [[Flood Swarms]] made air support almost useless, forcing the Marines to use large numbers of [[Wolverine]]s to clear the air before tanks and infantry could clear landing zones of Flood growths. They managed to slow down the ''Spirit of Fire's'' descent by disabling Forerunner pylon towers powering the docking system with [[Gremlin Combat Support Vehicle]]s, giving them a little longer. After evacuating [[Alpha Platoon]] and [[Bravo Platoon]], the team had to escort [[Charlie Platoon]] back to the firebase for extraction after their [[Dropship 77-Troop Carrier|Pelican]] was forced to abort its run. After extracting all UNSC forces, the firebase was abandoned to the Flood and the ''Spirit of Fire'' began her descent.'''Halo Wars''' ''level, {{Levelname|Shield World}}'''''Halo Wars''' ''cutscene [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RKbH5aXZgbw&feature=player_embedded "Descent"]'' |
