In [[2555]], renowned human scientist Doctor [[Luther Mann]] discovered the location of [[Installation 07]]. The Office of Naval Intelligence subsequently sent a research detachment to study Zeta Halo. While inspecting the ring's custodial systems, Mann discovered a Forerunner timer that was counting down to the [[Halo Array]]'s activation in five weeks. Both the UNSC and [[Swords of Sanghelios]] decided to travel to what remained of [[Installation 00]] to manually stop the timer. Members of the group came from both factions involved and met aboard the warship ''[[Mayhem]]''. When the [[Huragok]] [[Drifts Randomly]] activated the [[Portal at Voi]] for the first time since the [[Battle for Earth]] in [[2552]], a [[Retriever Sentinel]], sent by [[000 Tragic Solitude]], emerged through the portal and began strip-mining the area around the structure, forcing the {{UNSCShip|Endeavor}} and accompanying small craft to engage it. ''Mayhem'' proceeded to enter the portal to travel to the Ark. Upon exiting slipspace, the corvette was immediately engaged by more Retrievers, and was heavily damaged in the process, crash-landing on the surface of the installation. The group set out to go to the [[Installation 00 Citadel|Citadel]] by foot, encountering some of the installation's ambient life, including predatory species 'native' to the installation. Eventually arriving at the Citadel, the group shut down the firing of the rings. | In [[2555]], renowned human scientist Doctor [[Luther Mann]] discovered the location of [[Installation 07]].

Before the group could stop the firing of the rings, however, Tragic Solitude dispatched a fleet of Retrievers through the portal to strip-mine Earth and the rest of the Sol system. The [[UNSC Home Fleet]] engaged the invading force, initially repelling them but soon being overwhelmed by the Forerunner constructs' sheer numbers. Eventually there were only a dozen human ships left, which charged into the Retrievers in a last-ditch defense of Earth. However, due to the actions of the party at Installation 00, Tragic Solitude recalled the Retrievers, and they retreated through the portal back to the Ark.{{Ref/Novel|HitD|Page=337}} However, Tragic Solitude resumed his attack on the group and was destroyed by [[Bobby Kodiak]] at the cost of his own life. With the threat neutralized, the UNSC sent a fleet to the Ark to investigate and the ''Mayhem'' was rescued by the {{UNSCShip|Witness}}. Plans were made to repair the Ark using the Retriever Sentinels by directing them to mine lifeless systems and it was also decided to begin setting up research outposts on the installation.{{Ref/ | Before the group could stop the firing of the rings, however, Tragic Solitude dispatched a fleet of Retrievers through the portal to strip-mine Earth and the rest of the Sol system.
