Upon the discovery of [[Installation 04]], ''High Charity'' was supposed to perform a Slipspace jump to the [[Halo]] along with its fleet, where the High Prophets would activate the ring to send the Covenant on the [[Great Journey]]. They sent the [[Fleet of Particular Justice]] to secure the ring in preparation for ''High Charity'''s arrival, but they did not know about the [[Flood]], and did not expect interference from UNSC personnel. When ''High Charity'' and its fleet arrived at [[Threshold]], they found that both the Halo and the Fleet of Particular Justice had been [[Battle of Installation 04|utterly destroyed]].

After [[The First Battle of Earth]], the [[High Prophet of Regret]] sent the coordinates of [[Installation 05]] to ''High Charity''. The planetoid and its fleet arrived just in time to watch the Master Chief kill Regret. It then held position over Installation 05 until hostilities erupted between the [[Brute]]s and [[Elite]]s, as a new [[Civil War of the Covenant]] broke out.

Eventually, the Forerunner ship at High Charity's core took off, with both the Prophet of Truth and Master Chief inside, leaving behind [[Cortana]]. It appears that the Covenant forces on both sides completely abandoned ''High Charity'' afterwards, and it was completely infested by the Flood, as the Flood organism known as [[Gravemind]] took complete control of the Sanctum of the Hierarchs, using the Council Chamber itself as his "throne room."

Whether it will be reinhabited or destroyed in the future ([[Halo 3]]) is unknown. However, with the Forerunner ship, its source of power gone, it is likely that whatever automated defenses the city has will not work, and with the Flood running unopposed in the city, there is a good chance it is destroyed. If was not to be destroyed, it is likely that the [[Flood]] is using it as a stronghold as well as making use of its vast number of ships to further its goals, which is to say infect and reproduce.

The [[Flood]] did indeed turn High Charity into one of their "wretched hives," completely transforming the city until it was only recognizable from the exterior. It housed legions of the parasite until [[Master Chief]] infiltrated it outside of [[The Ark]], looking for [[Cortana]]. After finding her, Master Chief started a chain reaction on the city's power reactors, blasting the planetoid to bits, and dismantling [[Gravemind]], but only for a short time.
