The ''Song of Retribution'' came into [[Jul 'Mdama]]'s possession following the formation of a new [[Jul 'Mdama's Covenant faction|faction of Covenant]] on [[Hesduros]] in [[2553]] and was chosen by 'Mdama to serve as his personal [[flagship]]. In [[2554]], 'Mdama and his followers discovered [[Requiem]] in the [[Epoloch system]]. Over the next three years, the Covenant tried to enter the planet, without success. The ''Song of Retribution'' remained in orbit over the planet during this time. In [[2557#July|July 2557]], the Covenant detected a [[UNSC Forward Unto Dawn|human vessel]] heading to the planet. 'Mdama ordered his troops to board the ship and keep the humans away from Requiem.<ref name="terminal">[http://halo.xbox.com/en-us/Universe/detail/halo-4-terminal-jul-mdama/0f378de5-e0e3-4f31-a1e1-2a363af4094d '''Halo Waypoint:''' ''Halo 4 Terminal: Jul 'Mdama'']</ref> They were unsuccessful as both the ''Forward Unto Dawn'' and many nearby Covenant ships were pulled into Requiem.<ref>'''[[Halo 4]]''', campaign level, ''[[Dawn (level)|Dawn]]''</ref> However, the ''Song of Retribution'' survived and presumably continued to serve as 'Mdama's command ship during the [[Battle of Requiem]]. | |||
Six months after the [[Ur-Didact|Didact]]'s [[New Phoenix Incident|attack]] on [[Earth]], the {{UNSCShip|Infinity}} returned to Requiem and engaged Jul 'Mdama's fleet, igniting the [[Requiem Campaign]]. | Six months after the [[Ur-Didact|Didact]]'s [[New Phoenix Incident|attack]] on [[Earth]], the {{UNSCShip|Infinity}} returned to Requiem and engaged Jul 'Mdama's fleet, igniting the [[Requiem Campaign]]. Although the ''Song of Retribution'' was present during this battle, it did not participate in any of the actual fighting. Towards the end of the battle, 'Mdama put Requiem on a collision course with its sun and returned to the ''Song of Retribution'', along with Doctor [[Catherine Halsey]]. The ''Retribution'' and the remainder of Jul's fleet then fled the system.<ref>'''[[Spartan Ops]]''', [[S1/Exodus|S1E10 ''Exodus'']]</ref> | ||

''Song of Retribution'' later traveled to the [[Aktis system]] as part of Jul's and Halsey's plan to recover the UNSC's half of the [[Janus Key]]. Using a [[Requiem communication artifact|Forerunner artifact]] taken from Requiem. ''Infinity'' was left stranded in the system. ''Song of Retribution'' remained in orbit over [[Aktis IV]], where Jul and Halsey watched the battle from above and discussed their plan to recover the Janus Key half. When the UNSC's half of the Janus Key was en route to the planet in a [[D79-TC Pelican]], the [[dropship]] was shot down by rogue forces under the control of [[Sali 'Nyon]]. In order to recover the half of the Janus Key for himself, Jul traveled to the planet's surface to scourge the Pelican crash-site. Although he had initially ordered for Halsey to remain aboard ''Song of Retribution'',<ref name="HE14">'''[[Halo: Escalation]]''', ''[[Halo: Escalation Issue 14|Issue #14]]''</ref> 'Mdama later ordered for her to be transported to Aktis IV's surface.<ref name="HE15">'''Halo: Escalation''', ''[[Halo: Escalation Issue 15|Issue #15]]''</ref> | |||
