During the first hours of the [[Great Schism]], the Sangheili-led Covenant took this exposed location, stationing [[Mgalekgolo]] in the center while posting [[Sangheili Honor Guardsman|Sangheili Honor Guardsmen]] and [[Special Operations Sangheili]] on the perimeter. Shortly afterward, the Jiralhanae-led Covenant sought to retake the Valley of Tears A, sending forth [[Jiralhanae]] and [[Kig-yar Sniper]]s. [[John-117]] killed them all during his pursuit of the Prophet of Truth.{{Ref/Reuse|gravemind}}

As with Valley A, it was the site of a battle between the Sangheili-led Covenant and the Jiralhanae-led Covenant during the opening stages of the Great Schism. The Sangheili invaded from the north, while the Jiralhanae invaded from the south. In the center, there was a tremendous fray, with Jiralhanae engaging Sangheili, [[Sangheili Ranger]]s, and black-armored [[Special Operations Unggoy]] armed with [[Pez'tk-pattern fuel rod gun|fuel rod guns]]. Keeping the Sangheili entryway to the valley secure were two [[Stealth Sangheili]] armed with [[Type-1 Energy Weapon/Sword|energy swords]] along with several Unggoy. During his pursuit of Truth, John-117 passed through the valley and eliminated the Covenant in the area.{{Ref/Reuse|gravemind}}
