Battle of Earth
During the Battle of Earth, the Sirens Bane was routed to assist in a counter offensive in Brazil, South America. Covenant forces had established a heavy presence within the jungle and were excavating something worthwhile in the Amazon. The Sirens Bane was eventually forced to nuke the region before falling back to aid the defense of the Macapa space tether. After sustaining direct fire from multiple low-power plasma cannons the Sirens Bane was severely damaged and the tether had been lost. Forced into a retreat the Bane headed East to rejoin the ensuing space battle however internal damages lead to the starship crashing in the Sahara Desert of North Africa.

The surviving crew lead an exodus convoy out of the desert and to Egypt where marine and naval forces assisted in securing a small UNSC victory before being rescued by the UNSC Call to Valor.
