==Biography== | |||
===Battle of Installation 00=== | |||
When [[343 Guilty Spark]], the [[monitor]] of [[Installation 04]], attempted to gain access to the Ark's systems during the [[Battle of Installation 00]] in [[2552#December|December 2552]], Tragic Solitude addressed the former's lack of authority on the Ark and informed Guilty Spark that the facility housed the [[Librarian]]'s archives of the [[Conservation Measure]]. When Guilty Spark continued to persist, Tragic Solitude threatened the monitor with the Ark's [[sentinel]]s.<ref>'''Halo 3''', ''[[Terminal/Halo 3|Terminal 3]]''</ref> | |||
===Post-war era=== | |||
When the {{UNSCShip|Rubicon}} arrived to investigate the damaged Ark in the post-war era and sent [[remote contact team]]s to the surface, Tragic Solitude enlisted the aid of a mortally wounded UNSC soldier, [[Bobby Kodiak]], in his plan to repair the Ark. Solitude heavily modified Kodiak's body with cybernetic components to the point he could control him and used him to initiate the activation of the Halo Array from the Ark in order to get someone one the other side to open the portal and allow Tragic Solitude to dispatch [[Retriever Sentinel]]s to mine resources he needed to repair his installation. An expedition soon arrived and their ship, the [[Swords of Sanghelios|Sangheili]] corvette ''[[Mayhem]]'', was quickly shot down by Solitude's Retrievers. As the humans and Sangheili began to trek across the surface to the Ark toward the [[Installation 00 Citadel|Citadel]], Tragic Solitude used [[armiger]]s as well as the fauna indexed at the Ark to attack them and to kidnap [[Olympia Vale]]. Solitude and Vale had a lengthy conversation concerning the AI's motivations, but Vale was unable to convince him to not send an army of Retrievers to mine Earth for raw materials. Meanwhile, elsewhere on the Ark, 000 Tragic Solitude killed ONI scientist [[Henry Lamb]] using a sentinel. Solitude eventually forced Vale to fight the cyborg created from Bobby Kodiak, but Vale managed to prevail and Solitude was destroyed by Bobby, who was freed from the AI's control after the other members of the group damaged Solitude's data arrays.<ref name="hitd"/> | |||
