Timeline

No timeline is given. But events in Halo 2 tell the the beginning of the battle and why it started:

  • October 21, 2552
    • The Master Chief tracks down and kills the Prophet of Regret on Installation 05.
    • High Charity arrives at Installation 05. Witnessing the assasination of the Prophet of Regret, the Prophet of Truth replaces the Honor Guard Elites with Brutes. Insulted, the Elite Councillors threaten to resign from the High Council.
    • The Arbiter and Tartarus are sent to retrieve The Index. The Arbiter sucessfully takes the Index, but Tartarus tries to kill him and takes the Index from him, as he was secretly ordered to do by the Prophet of Truth.
  • October 22, 2552
    • Most of the Elite Councillors are taken to the surface of Installation 05 where they are massacred by the Brutes.
    • Tartarus declares war on the Elites. Fighting between Elite and Brute forces breaks out all over High Charity. As word spreads, fighting takes place throughout the fleet, as Elite- and Brute-controlled ships attack one another.
    • Tartarus attemptes to activate the Halo.
    • The Arbiter, with the help of of Sergeant Johnson and Rtas 'Vadumee, kills Tartarus.
    • The Prophet of Truth takes the Forerunner Ship to Earth, to join The Second Battle of Earth. The Brute forces there are already engaged in fighting with the UNSC. Unbeknownst to the Prophet of Truth, the Master Chief is on the ship, with the intention of "finishing the fight".
