In [[2495]], the Sundered Legion | In [[2495]], the Sundered Legion emerged and began a series of brushfire conflicts on Meridian. Though they deliberately held back to help find strategies and weaknesses, sending what they learn to the Secessionist Union. They believed that the deciding conflict of the Insurrection was at Meridian.{{Ref/Reuse|BBSunder}} | ||
In [[2499]], the [[Colonial Military Authority]] officially departed the moon prompting the Legion to attack the city of [[Bretagne]], which started uprisings in [[Sabudia]] and [[Aagen]].{{Ref/Reuse|BBSunder}} | |||
=== | Following the election of [[Charles Zdenek]] in [[2503]], tensions between the Legion and UEG backed elements created disputes over territories on the Meridian.{{Ref/Reuse|BBSunder}} | ||
===Open conflict and defeat=== | |||
In [[2516]], the Legion mobilized and stole several [[Scorpion]] tanks. The UNSC at this point decided to retaliate.{{Ref/Reuse|BBSunder}} | |||
By [[2518]], the Sundered Legion's leadership were being harbored by the [[National government|country]] of [[Aethia]] on Meridian. The UNSC backed [[Meridian Air Force]] began [[Siege of Aethia|Operation: OPEN GRAVE or the Siege of Aethia]] in an effort to take out this leadership. Fighting would continue for three years and in [[2521]], the UNSC being bolstered by extra resources from [[Operation: TREBUCHET]] managed to end the Siege and break the Sundered Legion.{{Ref/Reuse|BBSunder}} | |||
After five years of near-constant conflict, Sundered Legion forces were defeated. Leaders of the Sundered Legion were placed on trial in the courts of the [[Unified Earth Government]], though the rest of the faction's members were offered amnesty by the UNSC.<ref name="evacuation intel">'''[[Halo 5: Guardians]]''', campaign level ''[[Evacuation]]'' - ''[[Mission Intel]]''</ref>{{Ref/Reuse|BBSunder}} | |||

Although parts of the Legion stayed active following the Siege of Aethia, they would never enjoy the same support or scale again.{{Ref/Reuse|BBSunder}} | |||
By [[2548]], the Sundered Legion faded into the past. Rumors persisted at that time that a bunker underneath the town of [[Brume-sur-Mer]] officially built at the start of the [[Human-Covenant War]], had actually belonged to the Sundered Legion.{{Ref/Novel|Id=HBBC1|BatB|Chapter=1}} During the [[Battle of Meridian]] that same year, [[Saskia Nazari]], [[Victor Gallardo]], [[Dorian Nguyen]], [[Evelyn Rousseau]] and [[Spartan-III]] [[Owen-B096]] located an abandoned and long-forgotten Sundered Legion hanger near Brume-sur-Mer. The hanger contained [[Sundered Legion Prowler|a]] [[Prowler]] that the Legion had presumably stolen from ONI during the Insurrection and which was still functional. The presumed great-grandson of [[Quinn Butain|one of]] the Legion, Dorian's DNA allowed him to access the ship's systems and fly the survivors from Brume-sur-Mer off of Meridian.{{Ref/Reuse|HBBC16}} | By [[2548]], the Sundered Legion faded into the past.
