Over the next thirty-three years, Nizat and [[Defenders of the Sanctum|his forces]] waged an ongoing war against Petrov and her forces, unaware that the Covenant was eventually defeated.

However, the orbital mine shell destroyed both Pelicans that were sent to Netherop's surface. Not prepared to clear a full mine shell and unwilling twenty lives to save eight, the captain called off the mission, but he promised that a better-equipped mission would come back when it was feasible. True to the Prowler captain's word, the corvette {{UNSCShip|Alpina}} came years later and worked to punch through the mine shell. On the third day, the ''Alpina'' made contact with the UNSC survivors and promised that a Pelican would collect them before the next evening, having apparently found a way through the mine shell. However, Nizat was able to use the Divine Hand to destroy the ''Alpina'' and the third rescue mission that came after it.{{Ref/Reuse|Out9}} | ||
