Through neglect shown by the Monitor of [[Installation 05]], [[2401 Penitent Tangent]], a Flood outbreak occurred a few thousand years after the firing of the Array, and the Gravemind was able to find enough biomass to rebuild itself deep under the [[Library]] of the installation. During the [[Battle of Installation 05]], it assimilated the dead [[Prophet of Regret]] into itself and also captured the [[Monitor]]; possibly as a result of this, the Gravemind was capable of utilizing Delta Halo's [[teleportation grid]].

The Flood intelligence later "rescued" and captured both [[John-117|Master Chief]] and the [[Thel 'Vadam|Arbiter]], when the former fell into a lake while escaping from a Covenant ship, and the latter was thrown into a chasm by a traitorous [[Tartarus]]. The Gravemind tried to convince the Arbiter of the true nature of the Halo Array, and proposed a truce to prevent the Covenant from activating the rings and killing them all. It then used the installation's [[teleportation grid]] to teleport them respectively to ''High Charity'' and Delta Halo's control room in order to find the [[Index]]. | ||

The Gravemind later captured the {{UNSCShip|In Amber Clad}} and used it to board the [[Covenant]] holy city ''[[High Charity]]'', crashing the frigate into a city wall and releasing numerous [[Pelican]]s full of the Flood plague, taking advantage of the distraction caused by both the [[Great Schism]] and the Master Chief. Within days it took over the entire city and all life within it. The UNSC AI [[Cortana]], who was left on ''High Charity'' by the Master Chief, was quickly contacted by the Gravemind, which started to psychologically torture her in order to subjugate her and obtain useful information from her. As Gravemind tortured Cortana in search of information, the two would enter in a conversation about diverse themes, such as John-117 and the danger he posed to the Flood, which the Gravemind acknowledged as a fact.<ref name="Human Weakness">'''Halo: Evolutions - Essential Tales of the Halo Universe''', ''Human Weakness''</ref> Meanwhile, the Gravemind slowly started to become ''High Charity'' itself after taking it over completely, converting the whole city into a Flood environment and as his base of operations.<ref>http://blog.ascendantjustice.com/halo-3/hindsight-halo-3/halo/</ref> | The Gravemind later captured the {{UNSCShip|In Amber Clad}} and used it to board the [[Covenant]] holy city ''[[High Charity]]'', crashing the frigate into a city wall and releasing numerous [[Pelican]]s full of the Flood plague, taking advantage of the distraction caused by both the [[Great Schism]] and the Master Chief.
