Ardent Prayer was a Covenant SDV-class heavy corvette attached to the Fleet of Valiant Prudence. Its Shipmaster was Ardo 'Moretumee.[2] The vessel took part in the initial stages of the Covenant's invasion of the planet Reach in summer 2552.[3][4]
Overview
During Operation: UPPER CUT on August 14, 2552, Ardent Prayer was boarded by SPARTAN-B312, Jorge-052, and several YSS-1000 Sabre pilots in an effort to plant a Shaw-Fujikawa Translight Engine on board, which would be used to destroy a nearby CSO-class supercarrier, Long Night of Solace - the fleet's flagship. During the mission, the ship was engaged by the UNSC Paris-class heavy frigate Savannah. Savannah jammed Ardent Prayer's communications, while the Sabres damaged the corvette's engines and destroyed its Seraph escort so its crew could not call for help.[4]
Ardent Prayer destroyed Savannah, but not before a boarding party had landed on the corvette. The UNSC team eliminated the bridge crew, including its Shipmaster, Ardo 'Moretumee, and set the ship on a refueling track with Long Night of Solace. The operation succeeded, and Ardent Prayer, along with the supercarrier, was destroyed by the rigged slipspace drive.[4][2]
Trivia
- Ardent Prayer is the setting of the Halo: Reach multiplayer map Zealot and the Firefight map Corvette.
