History

Main article: Operation: WARM BLANKET

Resplendent Fervor and the Third Fleet of Glorious Consequence were present at the Battle of Miridem in 2544, during which the Covenant captured Dr. Catherine Halsey while in cryo-stasis and brought her onboard Resplendent Fervor. As they begun to move out of the system to rendezvous with the fleets of Furious Retribution and Rigorous Prayer and return to High Charity, magnetic interference from the star prevented them from jumping into Slipstream space immediately, forcing the fleet to clear the magnetic field at sublight speeds before they could make the jump. Meanwhile, the UNSC quickly organized a of rescue effort in which SPARTAN-II Blue Team would utilize OF-92 EVAs deployed by an ONI stealth ship to rescue Halsey. Expecting this, 'Taralumee had decoys of Halsey's transponder planted on all of the fleet's ships, and an antimatter charge aboard one of the Ket-pattern battlecruisers as a trap for the Spartans. While two Spartans perished on their way to the flagship, the final three eventually boarded the vessel by making a hole to the shields near the hangar bay. As they advanced deeper into the ship, 'Taralumee begun detaching sections of the ship, with no avail. Eventually, John-117 unfroze Halsey and proceeded to the lifepod bays, confronting 'Taralumee's second-in-command, Major Thel 'Lodamee on the way. However, just as 'Lodamee was gaining the upper hand of the Spartan, the fleet cleared the magnetic interference and initiated Slipspace jump and the Major was pulled back into the main section of the ship. The discarded aft section was set to self-destruct, but Halsey and the Spartans made it out before its destruction.
