==Background== | |||
Unlike most prowlers, the ''Dusk'' is manned and operated by regular naval personnel rather than by the [[Office of Naval Intelligence]]. Prior to the [[Battle of Earth]], the ''Dusk'' had seen eighteen months of constant action.<ref>'''Ghosts of Onyx''', ''page 288''</ref> | |||
===Battle of Earth=== | ===Battle of Earth=== | ||
The ''Dusk'' was in [[Earth]] orbit when the Battle of Earth occurred. It was caught between rotations and was forced to engage with only 43 members of a normal complement of 90 crewmen.<ref>'''Ghosts of Onyx''', ''page 184''</ref> When the {{UNSCShip|In Amber Clad}} pursued the [[Prophet of Regret]]'s assault carrier, ''[[Solemn Penance]]'', the ''Dusk'' was one of four ships in a position to follow. However, only the ''Dusk'' was able to catch the [[Slipstream Space|Slipspace]] wake caused by the carrier. Its companions, the {{UNSCShip|Coral Sea}}, the {{UNSCShip|Paris}}, and the {{UNSCShip|Redoubtable}}, moved farther ahead in the Slipstream, losing contact with the ''Dusk''. | |||

By the time the ''Dusk'' arrived at [[Installation 05]], ''In Amber Clad'' had been destroyed and the [[Great Schism]] had already begun. After observing the ''[[Second Fleet of Homogenous Clarity]]'' destroy itself, the ''Dusk'' returned to Earth via Slipspace.<ref>'''Ghosts of Onyx''', ''page 199''</ref> | |||

It was soon redeployed to [[Onyx]] in support of [[Battlegroup Stalingrad]], following the reception of a distress signal from [[Catherine Elizabeth Halsey|Dr. Catherine Halsey]]. Soon after arrival, Battlegroup Stalingrad engaged the the ''[[Second Fleet of Homogeneous Clarity]]'', led by [[Fleet Master]] [[Voro Nar 'Mantakree]]. Rather than directly participating in [[Battle of Onyx|the battle]], the ''Dusk'' laid several [[HORNET Mine]]s, destroying many Covenant vessels. However, additional Covenant vessels soon arrived, destroying every ship in Battlegroup Stalingrad with the exception of the ''Dusk''. | ||
The crew of the ''Dusk'' witnessed the remaining Covenant ships being destroyed by [[Onyx Sentinel|Sentinels]], then returned to Earth.<ref>'''Ghosts of Onyx''', ''page 378''</ref> The prowler survived the war, and its battle records was later examined by the [[Office of Naval Intelligence]].<ref>''' | The crew of the ''Dusk'' witnessed the remaining Covenant ships being destroyed by [[Onyx Sentinel|Sentinels]], then returned to Earth.<ref>'''Ghosts of Onyx''', ''page 378''</ref> The prowler survived the war, and its battle records was later examined by the [[Office of Naval Intelligence]].<ref name>[http://halo.xbox.com/en-us/news/headline/the-halo-bulletin-101211-exclusive-book-excerpt-glasslands/280887 '''Halo Official Site''' - ''Halo: Glasslands'' excerpt, Chapter 2]</ref> | ||
