==Aftermath==
Because of their gullibility, the Covenant lost many soldiers and ships looking for a non-existent Key of Osanalon. However, the UNSC also lost a high-ranking commander in the battle, Colonel [[James Ackerson]], and many civilians. Additionally, many buildings were damaged as a result from the fighting but the city was not destroyed.
