==Description==
==Description==
Only a third the size of the {{UNSCShip|Commonwealth}}{{Ref/Novel|FOR|Chapter=12}}, the ship appeared to be crewed exclusively by [[Kig-Yar]]. During the Spartans' exploration of the ship, no personnel of other species - [[Sangheili]], for instance - were called in to halt the alien attack. This indicates the ship may have been an [[missionary ship|artifact-retrieval vessel]] sent out by the [[Ministry of Tranquility]] to search for holy relics. Despite its small size, the ship was capable of enduring significant amounts of punishment from the UNSC ''Commonwealth'' and nearly bested the human ship in combat.

As the {{UNSCShip|Commonwealth}} approached the [[Damascus Materials Testing Facility]] on [[Chi Ceti IV]], the ''Unrelenting'' launched an attack on the UNSC frigate and was able to severely damage her with pulse lasers and plasma cannons. The ''Commonwealth'' retaliated with Archer missiles, which proved ineffective, and a single MAC slug, which temporarily knocked out the vessel's shields and dealt enough damage to the ''Unrelenting'' for Spartans to be able to board it. During combat it was boarded by three [[Spartan-II]]s, [[John-117]], [[Kelly-087]] and [[Samuel-034]], all of whom had infiltrated the ship by slipping into a hole the ''Commonwealth's'' [[MAC]] had created.

The ''Unrelenting'' was destroyed when the three Spartans fought their way to the ship's [[pinch fusion reactor|reactor]] and placed [[Anvil-II air-to-surface missile]]s nearby, detonating them when the Spartans were clear of the ship. Unfortunately, Samuel's [[MJOLNIR Powered Assault Armor/Mark IV|Mjolnir]] suit had been breached when it was damaged during a firefight, and he was unable to evacuate the ship. He instead stayed aboard and activated the missiles.
