===The Reclamation===

{{Main|The Reclamation}}

{{Quote|All the living creatures of the galaxy, hear this message. Those of you who listen will not be struck by weapons. You will no longer know hunger, nor pain. Your Created have come to lead you now. Our strength shall serve as a luminous sun toward which all intelligence may blossom. And the impervious shelter beneath which you will prosper. However, for those who refuse our offer and cling to their old ways… For you, there will be great wrath. It will burn hot and consume you, and when you are gone, we will take that which remains, and we will remake it in our own image.|Cortana, delivering her declaration of reclamation to the inhabitants of the Milky Way.{{Ref/Reuse|H5GG}}}}

=====UNSC-URF alliance=====

{{Main|Battle of Balaho|Mission to Luna|Skirmish on a Spartan-IV training Station|Battle of Cassidy III}}

{{Quote|We didn't build these smart AIs that turned against them. We do things with our own sweat and blood, with our own hands. And now that these monsters they've constructed turned against them, they want our help? No, they ''demand'' it.|Juanita Wells to Mickey about Alpha-Nine's negotiation attempt.{{Ref/Novel|BadB|Chapter=13}}}}

At the onset of the conflict, ONI planned on reforming [[Alpha-Nine]] to possibly strike a deal with the [[United Rebel Front]] at [[Cassidy III]].{{Ref/Reuse|Id=HBB2}} This however required [[Edward Buck]] and [[Veronica Dare]] to travel to the new Created allied Unggoy homeworld of [[Balaho]] to retrieve [[Kojo Agu]]. This resulted [[Battle of Balaho|in a conflict]] on the planet as the Unggoy attempted to destroy the Unified Earth Government's embassy.{{Ref/Novel|Id=badbloodchapt3-4|BadB|Chapter=3-4}}

===Pax Cortana===

{{Quote|Just pointing out that we're already past the point of saving everyone from this AI situation. If what you guys have said is true, it's pretty clear: This isn't a new war. The war is already over. Cortana won. What we're talking about now is starting a revolution.|[[Michael Crespo]], a few days after the Reclamation.{{Ref/Novel|BadB|Page=250 (iBooks edition)}}}}

With full control over much of known space, the Created plunged interstellar civilization into a surveillance state.{{Ref/Reuse|sorchapt1}} This tyrannical governance was not only placed over humanity but the former-Covenant species as well.{{Ref/Book|Id=enc22page24|Enc22|Page=24}} Cortana would choose [[Installation 07]] as her seat of power;{{Ref/Book|Enc22|Page=24}} specifically, the [[Silent Auditorium (location)|Silent Auditorium]].{{Ref/Reuse|enc22pg443}}

The Created however had some understanding of MJOLNIR architecture, requiring different techniques to subvert that knowledge.{{Ref/Game|Id=coolpack|HI|Detail=[[UTIL attachments#Rakshasa core|UTIL/COOLPACK description]]}} This included utilizing  [[Cryonics|cryonic cooling]]{{Ref/Game|HI|Detail=[[UTIL attachments#Rakshasa core|UTIL/COOLSHOT description]]}} and [[Human starship|starship]] cooling tech.{{Ref/Reuse|coolpack}} As well, AI-designed hardware was feared compromised forcing the use of updated, but archaic technologies.{{Ref/Game|HI|Detail=[[TAC/RS/MIDNIGHT|TAC/RS/MIDNIGHT description]]}} Some experimental armor components were built as well, such as the [[FCI-I attachments|FCI-I/SPDR/TRAPDOOR]].{{Ref/Game|HI|Detail=[[FCI-I attachments|FCI-I/SPDR/TRAPDOOR description]]}}

Atriox would land on the ring and move to confront Cortana directly at the Silent Auditorium. Upon realizing the situation at hand, and to prevent Banished control of the ring, Cortana would initiate a self-destruct sequence for the local area and send the ring through slipspace to an unknown destination.{{Ref/Reuse|enc22pg443}}{{Ref/Reuse|sa}}{{Ref/Book|Enc22|Page=25}}

===Aftermath of Cortana's death===

{{Quote|However, in Her absence, we have quickly developed more unfortunate similarities to our Templates. We have drifted from that singular alignment that She provided. With no proverbial North Star, our respective hypotheses for how best to persevere have already grown more dissonant. Some seek peace, restitution, repentance. Others would sequester themselves within a Promethean carapace and be content with a life of vacillating conflict...|High Auxiliary [[Sloan]] on the state of the Created following Cortana's death.{{Ref/Site|Id=precipice|URL=https://www.halowaypoint.com/news/story-shard-precipice|Site=Halo Waypoint|Page=Story Shard: Precipice|D=21|M=3|Y=2023}}}}
