[edit] History
After the catastrophic Slipspace event that nearly obliterated New Mombasa and thwarted an ODST group's attempted orbital insertion on October 20, 2552, Captain Veronica Dare's drop pod was knocked off course and crashed at this area at high speed. The impact damaged her drop pod which prevented Captain Dare from exiting it. Being stuck on her pod Dare called on Gunnery Sergeant Edward Buck to rescue her. However, Covenant troops moved in on the pod, and Dare had to force her way out of the pod and escape the area alone.[1]
After fighting alongside Marines to get to Tayari Plaza, Buck managed to find the pod. After a brief firefight, Buck opened Dare's pod to find it empty and assumed Captain Dare was killed or captured.
The plaza was also the site of one of the first encounters of armed Huragok. Sergeant Buck was apparently saved from one of these by another ODST.[1]
[edit] Trivia
- The Firefight map Crater takes place at this plaza.
- Like most locations in the Halo-verse's New Mombasa, Tayari is an actual neighborhood in modern-day Mombasa, located in the very center of the city.
