In the ensuing naval battle, the [[artificial intelligence]] [[Cortana]] disabled the ''Truth and Reconciliation'' as she tried in vain to defend the ''Pillar of Autumn''. The [[Prophet of Stewardship]] ordered that plasma torpedoes not be used against the human vessel, as they could potentially damage the Halo; boarding parties were sent instead. After being disabled, the vessel was forced to drop to 300 meters above the surface of the ring for refit and repair.{{Ref/Reuse|T&R}} | In the ensuing naval battle, the [[artificial intelligence]] [[Cortana]] disabled the ''Truth and Reconciliation'' as she tried in vain to defend the ''Pillar of Autumn''.

The SPARTAN and the ODSTs successfully routed the initial lines of resistance and proceeded into the labyrinthine corridors of the ship. The boarders fought their way to the ship's bridge, killing Shipmaster Lat 'Ravamee. After neutralizing the hostiles on the bridge, the Master Chief left the Marines to defend against intruders while he went in search of Captain Keyes in one of the ship's brigs. While making his way to the prison cells, he encountered another prison block that contained dead Marines who were either beaten or tortured to death. Needless to say, he did not find Captain Keyes in this cell block. The Master Chief proceeded to yet another cell block where he found Keyes and several other POWs. | The SPARTAN and the ODSTs successfully routed the initial lines of resistance and proceeded into the labyrinthine corridors of the ship.

Seconds after their release, the humans were ambushed by Spec-ops Elites. The SPARTAN, the captain, and the other freed prisoners fought their way back to the bridge, where they found the remaining ODSTs dead.

On [[2552#September|September 21]], following the inadvertent release of the [[Flood]], the Covenant leadership ordered all vessels to withdraw from the Halo. However, ''Truth and Reconciliation'' had been overwhelmed and disabled by the Flood before it could leave. The Covenant forces were fearful that the Flood would repair the ship, escape the installation, and infect the galaxy. The Covenant sent warriors, including a [[Covenant Special Operations|special operations contingent]], to retake the cruiser from the Flood. Amid this battle, John-117 was sent in to find Captain Keyes and extract him, or, failing that, to retrieve the Captain's [[command neural interface]] so the ''Pillar of Autumn''{{'}}s engines could be overloaded by utilizing the access codes found in the captain's implants, thus destroying the ring. | On [[2552#September|September 21]], following the inadvertent release of the [[Flood]], the Covenant leadership ordered all vessels to withdraw from the Halo.
