Battle Group Omicron rendezvoused with the [[prowler]] {{UNSCShip|Dusk}} soon after entering the [[Zeta Doradus system]]. The UNSC ships engaged the [[Joyous Exultation Covenant|Covenant]] fleet under [[Fleet Master]] [[Voro Nar 'Mantakree]] and took losses, including {{UNSCShip|Glasgow Kiss}}, which was sacrificed to save ''Stalingrad'' from Covenant [[plasma torpedo]]es. Following this engagement, Admiral Patterson ordered a withdrawal. The battle group temporarily went into hiding behind Onyx's moon. | Battle Group Omicron rendezvoused with the [[prowler]] {{UNSCShip|Dusk}} soon after entering the [[Zeta Doradus system]].
