The UNSC Hermes II[1] was a UNSC vessel. In a promotional transmission for Halo: Combat Evolved featured on Bungie's website, the Hermes II received a message from the Covenant Ester-pattern armored frigate, Contrition.

Little information about this vessel exists; it is even possible that the Hermes II was a station rather than a ship. However, it is referred to as an "SCS" class ship, the same letters associated with the UNSC Pillar of Autumn. Therefore, it is possible that the Hermes is a Halcyon-class light cruiser.

The Transmissions[edit]

Before Halo: Combat Evolved's release, a number of transmissions related to the game could be found on Bungie's website. The transmissions are directly linked to the Cortana Letters.
