Background

Harvest's Shipping Operations AI Sif concluded that the ship had a stealth package and was also armed with a single Archer missile. It is described as having a delta wing-shaped hull.[1]

The ship shadowed the ambush that Staff Sergeants Johnson and Byrne set up in a human freighter to catch the supposed Insurrectionists on board, which turned out to be a Kig-Yar privateers from the missionary ship Minor Transgression.[2] It was sent back to Reach with a message prepared by Jilan al-Cygni with all of the available information on the Kig-Yar pirates, who at that time were believed to be the main comprising force of what would later be known as the Covenant.

Trivia
