'''Captain Maribeau Veredi''' was a [[CMA]] officer during the beginning of the [[Human-Covenant War]]. He was the commanding officer of the [[CMA Heracles|CMA ''Heracles'']] and commander of [[Battlegroup 4]]. He had the dubious honor of making the first recorded contact with the [[Covenant]]. | |||
==Biography== | ==Biography== | ||
===Harvest=== | ===[[Harvest]]=== | ||
Captain Veredi led CMA [[Battlegroup 4]], the battlegroup that firstly encountered the [[Covenant]]. The battle group consisted of his own ship, the destroyer UNSC ''Heracles'' and two known frigates, [[CMA Arabia|CMA ''Arabia'']] and [[CMA Vostok|CMA ''Vostok''}}. Their deployment was aimed to discover the fate of the colony on the planet, [[Harvest]] <ref>'''[[Halo: The Fall of Reach]]''', page 96-98</ref>. | |||
They entered the [[Epsilon eridani system]] only to discover that everything on the planet had been completely incinerated and the surface melted down to glass. This was later dubbed "[[glassing]]". | |||

Before the ship attacked the Battlegroup, Veredi attempted to follow the UNSC's first contact protocol to no avail. | ||
The | Intercepted communications identified the enemy as "The [[Covenant]]". The message stated, "Your destruction is the will of the Gods, and we are their instrument." It was translated into [[English]] for UNSC personnel. | ||
===Second Battle of Harvest=== | |||
Captain Veredi later served during the [[Second Battle of Harvest]] where he again commanded the repaired UNSC ''Heracles'' and accompanied [[Vice Admiral]] [[Preston Cole]] into the system, successfully retaking it from the Covenant. | |||
==Trivia== | ==Trivia== | ||
*Technically, the Harvest colonists and [[Colonial Militia]] actually made contact with the Covenant before Veredi and Battlegroup 4. However, when Veredi and the ''Heracles'' returned to UNSC space, the survivors had still not been found and were presumed dead, making Veredi the first to report contact with the Covenant. | |||
