'''''Sacred Promise''''' was the name of a [[Covenant]] {{Class|CCS|Battlecruiser}}.


'''Sacred Promise''' was a Covenant starship of unknown classification.<ref>[[Conversations from the Universe]]</ref>
==History==
During an engagement with [[UNSC]] forces, the ''Sacred Promise'' was severely damaged, forcing the [[weapons]] to be taken offline. An attempt was made to elicit support from the ''[[Devotion]]'' and fighter cover from ''[[Commitment and Patience]]''.

The bridge crew of the ''Commitment and Patience'' completely lost drive control and the ship crashed into the thin atmosphere of a local satellite after a failed attempt to stop the engines by forcibly ejecting the ship's fuel cells. The transmissions (recorded in [[Conversations from the Universe]]) between the ''Sacred Promise'' and other ships ended after the destruction of the ''Commitment and Patience'' and its fate remains unknown, however, it is safe to presume that it was destroyed by UNSC forces.
During an unknown battle around an unidentified palent, Sacred Promise was badly damaged by an unknown UNSC vessel. The Captain orders most of the weapons of the ship offline due to some kind of extensive danger. He then requests protection from the ''[[Devotion]]'' and fighter support from the ''[[Commitment and Patience]]''. However, an enemy contact fires a "projectile" that ruptures the fuel cells of ''Commitment and Paitence'', and it vaporizes almost instantly. There is an impact from the resulting explosion on the ''Sacred Promise'' and it loses drive control, and descends toward the planet's primary moon. The Captain orders all hands to abandon ship and to jettison the ships fuel cells. Not all were evacuated in time, and engineering was unable to jettison the ship's fuel cells, it is unknown what happened to the ship. The Ship's Black box was recovered after the battle relaying what had happened to the it.

Sacred Promise was the name of a Covenant CCS-class Battlecruiser.

History

During an engagement with UNSC forces, the Sacred Promise was severely damaged, forcing the weapons to be taken offline. An attempt was made to elicit support from the Devotion and fighter cover from Commitment and Patience. However, before any help could arrive, Commitment and Patience was crippled by a well aimed Kinetic Penetrator round which ruptured several fuel cells and put the main drive into 'runaway state'.

The bridge crew of the Commitment and Patience completely lost drive control and the ship crashed into the thin atmosphere of a local satellite after a failed attempt to stop the engines by forcibly ejecting the ship's fuel cells. The transmissions (recorded in Conversations from the Universe) between the Sacred Promise and other ships ended after the destruction of the Commitment and Patience and its fate remains unknown, however, it is safe to presume that it was destroyed by UNSC forces.

Appearances

Sacred Promise was mentioned in the Transmissions as sending a taunting message to the UNSC Pillar of Autumn. Thus, it may have been part of the Covenant's Fleet of Particular Justice during the Battle of Reach. It was also mentioned in Conversations from the Universe.

It should be noted that Cortana, for reasons unknown, sent the Sacred Promise a taunting message of her own. Template:CCS-class
