The departure of the Covenant was followed by a [[Flood]] attack. It was repelled with the aid of [[Swords of Sanghelios|Thel 'Vadam's Covenant faction]], and a message from [[Cortana]] was retrieved.

The Shipmaster saw this guaranteed suicide as foolish and opted to lead an expedition through the portal to find Cortana's solution.
