The '''Fleet of Retribution'''<ref>[http://halo.bungie.net/News/content.aspx?type=topnews&link=thesoundofsack '''Bungie.net:''' ''The Tru7h About Co-Op In Halo 3'']</ref> was a [[Covenant fleet|naval formation]] composed of ships under [[Sangheili]] command that broke off from the [[High Charity defense fleet]], including the [[Second Fleet of Homogeneous Clarity]], when the [[Great Schism]] began. The fleet was led by former [[Special Operations Commander]] of the [[Fleet of Particular Justice]] [[Rtas 'Vadum]], with ''[[Shadow of Intent]]'' serving as the flagship. The Fleet of Retribution was the only known group within the [[Covenant separatists]] to ally with the [[UNSC]] during the Great Schism. The fleet briefly took in forces from the devastated [[UNSC Home Fleet]] during the final days of the [[Human-Covenant War]]. During the [[Battle of Installation 00|joint assault]] on the [[Forerunner]] [[Installation 00]], the fleet played an instrumental role in bringing about the Covenant's defeat. After the war, the fleet's personnel and naval components would be incorporated into the reformed [[Swords of Sanghelios]].

The '''''Fleet of Retribution''''' was a naval formation formerly in the service of the [[Covenant]]. When the [[Great Schism]] began, the fleet broke off from the ''[[Second Fleet of Homogeneous Clarity]]'' and resumed [[Sangheili]] rule; it was lead by [[Rtas 'Vadum]], a former [[Special Operations Commander]].<ref>[http://www.bungie.net/News/content.aspx?type=topnews&link=thesoundofsack '''Bungie.net:''' ''The Tru7h About Co-Op In Halo 3'']</ref><ref>'''[[Halo 3]]''', campaign levels, ''[[Floodgate]]'', ''[[The Ark (level)|The Ark]]'', ''[[The Covenant (level)|The Covenant]]'' and ''[[Halo (Halo 3 level)|Halo]]''</ref> It was one of the main naval components of what would eventually become the [[Swords of Sanghelios]] during the schism and later took on forces from the [[Seventh Fleet|UNSC Seventh Fleet]]. Command and control was provided by the flagship ''[[Shadow of Intent]]''.


[[Arbiter]] [[Thel 'Vadam]], future leader of [[Sanghelios]], served as a field commander in the fleet. Other notable figures serving with Retribution include [[Miranda Keyes|Commander Miranda Keyes]], Spartan and [[Master Chief Petty Officer]] [[John-117]], and [[Sergeant Major]] [[Avery Johnson]].

==History==
==History==
===Formation and Great Schism===
After the Great Schism began during the [[Battle of Installation 05]], the ''Second Fleet of Homogeneous Clarity'' was fractured. Some of the Sangheili-controlled remnants of this fleet were reformed into the ''Fleet of Retribution'', which came under the command of Shipmaster Rtas 'Vadum. The [[Swords of Sanghelios|Sangheili]] forces eventually triumphed at [[Installation 05]] and blockaded the ringworld to prevent the [[Flood]] from escaping. However, [[Indulgence of Conviction|one Flood-controlled battlecruiser]] evaded the blockade and headed for [[Earth]]. 'Vadum and the ''Fleet of Retribution'' pursued this vessel.
{{Main|Great Schism|Fall of High Charity}}
[[File:H3 Heretic FleetOfRetribution.jpg|left|thumb|250px|A portion of the Fleet of Retribution pursues the ''[[Indulgence of Conviction]]'' to Earth.]]
When the [[Great Schism]] erupted across the Covenant-controlled space during the [[Battle of Installation 05]], the [[High Charity Defense Fleet]] was split in two. Sangheili-controlled ships and those under [[Jiralhanae]] leadership began to open fire on each other over [[High Charity]]. Many Covenant species in proximity to the Sangheili remained loyal to them during the conflict, notably the [[Unggoy]] and the [[Mgalekgolo]].<ref name="Uprising">'''[[Halo 2]]''', campaign level ''[[Uprising]]''</ref>


On Installation 05, [[Arbiter]] [[Thel 'Vadam]] had formed an uneasy alliance with [[Sergeant Major]] [[Avery Johnson]] in order to stop the [[Chieftain of the Jiralhanae]] [[Tartarus]] from activating it. While the conflict for the Delta Halo was raging, [[Rtas 'Vadum]] and his strikeforce managed to recapture the ''[[Shadow of Intent]]'' from the Jiralhanae and seized control of the carrier.<ref name="universe">[https://www.halowaypoint.com/en-us/universe/vehicles/shadow-of-intent ''Halo Waypoint'': Shadow of Intent]</ref>{{Ref/Reuse|EVG}} The damage taken during the hand-to-hand combat of these boarding actions was hastily sealed off and much left without full repair.<ref name="Warfleet">''[[Halo: Warfleet]]'', Shadow of Intent - p.70-71</ref> With the carrier now served as the flagship of the newly-formed Fleet of Retribution coming under the command of [[Fleetmaster]] Rtas 'Vadum, the ''Shadow of Intent'' along with the ''[[Eternal Reward]]'', were the two only Sangheili-crewed [[CAS-class assault carrier|assault carriers]] to partake the space fight against the Jiralhanae-led vessels loyal to the [[San'Shyuum]] over the High Charity at the time. During the battle, ''Eternal Reward'' was attacked by a loyalist fleet of eight [[Covenant destroyer|destroyers]] and [[Covenant cruiser|cruisers]] at close range led by [[Prelate]] [[Tem'Bhetek]]'s modified {{Pattern|Zanar|light cruiser}} ''[[Spear of Light]]''. The carrier was able to destroy its attackers save for the ''Spear of Light'' before being destroyed by the light cruiser after its crew were forced to abandon the ship.{{Ref/Reuse|soi}}
The ''Fleet of Retribution'' arrived at Earth during the closing stages of the [[Battle of Voi]], soon after the Flood-controlled battlecruiser arrived. After [[SPARTAN-II Program|Spartan]] [[John-117]] recovered a pre-recorded message from [[Cortana]], Shipmaster 'Vadum ordered the fleet to [[glassing|glass]] the area  immediately surrounding Voi to prevent the parasite from spreading further, much to the dismay of [[Fleet Admiral]] [[Terrence Hood]].


The ''Shadow of Intent'' led the blockade of High Charity and traded plasma torpedoes with San'Shyuum-controlled vessels to prevent any ships from escaping the quarantine of the station. No loyalist vessels was capable of matching ''Shadow of Intent'' in firepower and therefore intended to overwhelm the warship with a multitude of cruisers once its support ships had been destroyed. However, this plan went awry following the emergence of the Flood. During the blockade, ''Shadow of Intent'' used its [[ventral beam]] to partially [[glass]] High Charity in an attempt to combat the Flood aboard it.{{Ref/Reuse|soi}}  The Sangheili-controlled remnants of the [[High Charity defense fleet]], which stayed behind during [[Imperial Admiral]] [[Xytan 'Jar Wattinree]]'s [[Joyous Exultation Covenant|summons]] at [[Joyous Exultation]], were reformed into the Fleet of Retribution.
'Vadum then attended an assembly on his flagship's bridge, wherein it was decided that a joint human-Sangheili force would pursue the [[Prophet of Truth]]'s [[Truth's fleet|fleet]] through the [[slipspace]] [[The Portal|portal]] that had recently been opened. Subsequently, the ''Fleet of Retribution'', along with the UNSC frigate ''[[UNSC Forward Unto Dawn|Forward Unto Dawn]]'', [[Battle of Installation 00|engaged]] the Prophet of Truth's forces at [[Installation 00]]. Confronted with an enemy which outnumbered them three to one, the ''Fleet of Retribution'' nevertheless succeeded in destroying the Covenant's orbital forces, assisting the UNSC on the surface of the Ark. The surviving Covenant separatist and human forces evacuated Installation 00, leaving Truth's remaining forces to their doom. Only ''Shadow of Intent'' is known to have survived the Battle of Installation 00, though it is possible that other vessels remained intact.
 
After Tartarus was ultimately killed at the hands of Thel 'Vadam and the firing of the Installation 05 was averted, the new alliance formed between the Sangheili and UNSC shortly carried over to the rest of the Fleet of Retribution. The Arbiter, [[Miranda Keyes]] and [[Avery Johnson]] would rendezvous with 'Vadumee. Together, they formulated a plan to get to Earth and also for sterilization and quarantine of the spreading Flood on the Halo Installation 05. [[343 Guilty Spark]], the former [[monitor]] of the [[Installation 04]], remained with the fleet to coordinate containment efforts while the Arbiter, [[Usze 'Taham]], [[N'tho 'Sraom]], Keyes and Johnson, and the surviving UNSC forces raced back to Earth aboard one of the fleet's vessels to warn humanity and to locate the Ark before November 15, 2552.{{Ref/Reuse|LongRoad}}<ref name="lootcrate2">'''[[Halo Legendary Crate]]''', ''[[Halo Legendary Crate/Data Drops|Data Drop #2]]''</ref>
 
Following the [[Prophet of Truth]]'s escape to [[Earth]] aboard the [[Anodyne Spirit|Forerunner Dreadnought]] along with the remaining loyalist ships of the High Charity defense fleet, most of the fleet Thel 'Vadam and Rtas 'Vadum, hence hundreds of ships, remained near [[Halo Array|Halo]] [[Installation 05]] to quarantine the local [[Flood]] threat by [[glassing]] the surface and also blockaded the ringworld to prevent the [[Flood]] from escaping after the Sangheili forces eventually triumphed at the Halo installation.{{Ref/Reuse|floodgate}}<ref>[[Eleventh Hour reports]]</ref> However, a Flood-controlled vessel, ''[[Indulgence of Conviction]]'', evaded the blockade and headed for [[Earth]]. A [[battle group]] of the fleet consisting of at least 12 {{Pattern|Ket|battlecruiser}}s, including the ''[[Pious Inquisitor]]'', and at least 2 {{Class|CAS|assault carrier}}s, including the flagship ''Shadow of Intent'' herself, chased after that ship including near a ringed gas giant planet.<ref name=heretic/><ref name="EVG">'''[[Halo: The Essential Visual Guide]]''', ''page 124''</ref>
 
It is unknown what happened to the rest of the fleet following the Rtas 'Vadum's battle group's departure to Earth and after High Charity, under the power of the [[Gravemind]], forced its way out of quarantine and made its way to Earth as well but later to the Ark instead to stop the [[Prophet of Truth]]'s attempt to activate the [[Halo Array]] at the massive Forerunner installation.

[[File:2973083-Medium.jpg|thumb|250px|Infantry from the Fleet of Retribution during the [[Battle of the Citadel]].]]
The battle group of the Fleet of Retribution arrived on Earth during the closing stages of the [[Battle of Voi]], soon after the ''Indulgence of Conviction'' when the Flood on Earth has begun to spread from the Flood-controlled battlecruiser. The fleet deployed several Sangheili forces against the Flood and allow the [[SPARTAN-II program|Spartan]] [[John-117]], the infamous "[[demons|demon]]" to the Covenant, to recover a pre-recorded message from [[Cortana]] aboard the crashed ''Indulgence of Conviction''.<ref name=floodgate>'''[[Halo 3]]''', campaign level ''[[Floodgate]]''</ref>
 
After recovering the message, the Shipmaster 'Vadum ordered the fleet to [[glassing|glass]] the area  immediately surrounding Voi to prevent the parasite from spreading further. Thel 'Vadam convinced Rtas 'Vadum to exercise restraint when glassing. Thus, only an area of Africa was glassed instead of a much wider area. The fleet would have glassed the entire planet if it was not for the Arbiter's counsel. The glassing of Voi by the Sangheili was much to the dismay of [[Fleet Admiral]] [[Terrence Hood]] who exaggeratedly accused them for glassing "half of the [[Africa|continent]]" most likely due to his continious distaste for his former foes for leading the Covenant forces against the humanity throughtout the [[Human-Covenant War]] and being responsible for the losses of many [[human colonies]] [[Fall of Reach|such as]] [[Reach]].{{Ref/Reuse|floodgate}}
 
'Vadum then attended an assembly on his flagship's bridge, wherein it was decided that a joint human-Sangheili force would pursue the [[Prophet of Truth]]'s [[Truth's fleet|massive fleet]] through the [[slipspace]] [[The Portal|portal]] that had recently been opened. Subsequently, the Fleet of Retribution, along with UNSC forces from [[Battle Group Victory]] of the [[Seventh Fleet]], including the [[Charon-class light frigate|UNSC frigate]] ''[[UNSC Forward Unto Dawn|Forward Unto Dawn]]'', [[Battle of Installation 00|engaged]] the Prophet of Truth's forces at [[Installation 00]]. Confronted with an enemy which outnumbered them three to one, the Fleet of Retribution nevertheless succeeded in destroying the Covenant's orbital forces, assisting the UNSC on the surface of the Ark.{{Ref/Reuse|ark}} The surviving members of the Fleet of Retribution and human forces evacuated Installation 00, leaving Truth's remaining forces to their doom. Only ''Shadow of Intent'' and ''Pious Inquisitor'' are known to have survived the Battle of Installation 00, though it is possible that other vessels remained intact.<ref name=cortana>'''[[Halo 3]]''', campaign level ''[[Cortana (level)|Cortana]]''</ref>
 
===Post-war===
{{Main|Swords of Sanghelios}}
After the Sangheili were victorious in destroying the Covenant, they split off into [[Covenant remnants|several different factions]]. While numerous of surviving Sangheili from the [[Great Schism]], including the majority of the Fleet of Retribution, joined the Arbiter's emerging and renewed [[Swords of Sanghelios]], which would become the official government of [[Sanghelios]], many have chosen to take control over what was left of the former Covenant that they had destroyed; some joined [[Jul 'Mdama's Covenant]] while others consolidated into smaller independent factions.<ref name=lotr>[https://www.halowaypoint.com/en-us/news/canon-fodder-lore-of-the-rings '''Halo Waypoint''': ''Canon Fodder - Lore of the Rings''] ''"Like the rest of the Sangheili, the surviving Councilors were not completely unified in their opinions on how to proceed following the Great Schism. While some did take up the Arbiter’s cause, many others had become enamored with the idea of bringing the Covenant empire under complete Sangheili rule, quickly scrambling to grab power wherever they could. Some of these eventually served under Jul ‘Mdama, while others consolidated small pockets of reclaimed Covenant assets under more independent factions."''</ref>
 
Due to the increasing of the Sangheili civil war known as the [[Blooding Years]], the ''Shadow of Intent'' and its crew was taken far away from Sanghelios and sent to the frontiers of the former-Covenant territory in an attempt to find rest and recuperation following the Human-Covenant War. At this point, ''Shadow of Intent'' was ordered by Thel 'Vadam to be out of reach of allies whose loyalties were not as certain as Rtas 'Vadum's.{{Ref/Reuse|soi}} Between [[2553#March|March 6]] and [[2553#August|August 24,]] [[2553]], the carrier was believed to be retrieving former Covenant long-range exploratory fleets.<ref name="Catalog">[https://forums.halowaypoint.com/yaf_postsm2969315_Catalog-Interaction.aspx#post2969315 ''Halo Waypoint'': Catalog Interaction - Page 14] (defunct, [[Catalog/Archive/2014#Post .236|Archived]])</ref>  At this time, ''Shadow of Intent'' was the only operational ''CAS''-class assault carrier within the Swords of Sanghelios fleet.{{Ref/Reuse|soi}}
 
The ''Shadow of Intent'' was involved in [[Attack on Rahnelo|a battle]] on the Sangheili colony of [[Rahnelo]]. The [[San'Shyuum]] [[Prelate]] [[Tem'Bhetek]] set a trap for Rtas 'Vadum and the ''Shadow of Intent''. Many lives were lost and the Kaidon and two of his sons were taken hostage. The plot, which involved using a [[Prototype Halo installation]] to destroy [[Sanghelios]] was ultimately [[Battle of the Prototype Halo installation|thwarted]] by the crew of the ''Shadow of Intent'' with help from Tem after he realized he was being manipulated by the Minister of Preparation [[Boru'a'Neem]]. Having learned from the ''[[Spear of Light]]''{{'}}s navigation database that there was a fleet of thousands of San'Shyuum still out there, Shipmaster [[Rtas 'Vadum]] decided to seek them out and try to determine who should be pardoned as innocents and who should be persecuted as [[war criminal]]s.<ref name=soi>'''[[Halo: Shadow of Intent]]'''</ref>

The Fleet of Retribution was composed of hundreds of warships during the glassing of [[Installation 05]], mostly composed of what it remains within the [[High Charity defense fleet]] when these ships did not join the [[Imperial Admiral]] [[Xytan 'Jar Wattinree]]'s [[Joyous Exultation|summons]] and its [[Combined Fleet of Righteous Purpose]]. At least one [[battle group]] of at least 14 warships of the fleet, including the flagship ''Shadow of Intent'', was known to be present during the [[Battle for Earth]].{{Ref/NoteReuse|composition}}<ref name=heretic>'''[[Halo 3]]''', multiplayer level ''[[Heretic]]''</ref> At least 10 warships of the Fleet of Retribution later participated in the [[Battle of Installation 00]].{{Ref/Reuse|ark}}{{Ref/NoteReuse|fleetnumber}}
