Only a third the size of the {{UNSCShip|Commonwealth}}{{Ref/Novel|FOR|Chapter=12}} | Only or over a third the size of the {{UNSCShip|Commonwealth}},{{Ref/Novel|FOR|Chapter=12}}{{Ref/NoteReuse|Length}} 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. | ||

The ''Commonwealth'' retaliated with [[Archer missile]]s, 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. | 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.
