During the [[Battle of Installation 05]], the structure was one of many in the region to be occupied by Covenant forces preparing to fire the Halo. Owing to the name, the bastion was predominantly occupied by [[Jiralhanae]] "Brute" forces under the command of [[Jiralhanae Chieftain|Chieftain]] [[Avitus]]. At the outset of the [[Great Schism]], Avitus and his Jiralhanae troops were ordered to begin rounding up the [[Sangheili High Councilor]]s who were on Delta Halo's surface to observe Halo's firing to ensure that the [[Prophet of Truth]]'s coup of the Covenant would be successful. In the early stages of the fighting, Avitus was successful in rounding up two High Councilors alongside a pair of Sangheili-allied [[Mgalekgolo]], whom he intended to interrogate. Among the councilors was [[Raas 'Yajadai]], who was deposited into his cell with only a [[Okarda'phaa-pattern plasma rifle|plasma rifle]] - with the note that he could use it to commit suicide in dishonour, or wait for Avitus' return to be executed.{{Ref/Reuse|AoR}} A number of captured [[human]]s were also held at the facility including Sergeant Major [[Avery Johnson]], Master Sergeant [[Marcus Stacker]], and a handful of other [[UNSC Marine Corps|UNSC Marines]].{{Ref/Reuse|TGJ}}

This return never took place. Amidst the confusion of the erupting civil war, [[Arbiter]] [[Thel 'Vadam]]ee was able to lead a Sangheili force through the nearby [[Jiralhanae encampment]]s, taking the fight to the Brutes.{{Ref/Level|H2|Uprising}} Their assault was stopped short due to an inability to access the control room - with [[Rtas 'Vadum]]ee being the one to suggest taking the {{Pattern|Protos|Scarab}} docked at the bastion to assault the control room. 'Vadam's forces fought into the Bastion, recruiting more allied Sangheili and Mgalekgolo along the way, before finally emerging into the holding area to free 'Yajadai and the other prisoners. The group then stormed the landing pad, killing the Brutes there and capturing the Scarab and a number of {{Pattern|Oghal|Banshee}}s with which they could assault the control room. In the chaos of the fighting on the landing pad, Sergeant Johnson escaped his Brute captors and climbed into the Scarab, gaining a powerful leverage against his potential Sangheili enemies. Luckily for both sides, however, he and the Arbiter were able to strike a mutual peace in recognition of their [[Tartarus|much greater shared enemy]]. The peace struck on the landing pad of the bastion was ultimately the foundation for the continued [[Covenant separatists|separatist]]-[[United Nations Space Command|UNSC]] alliance that would see the war to its end, and later the basis for the [[Swords of Sanghelios]]' longer-term cooperation with the UNSC in the ensuing [[Post-Covenant War conflicts|post-war era]].{{Ref/Reuse|TGJ}}
