Following the war, an [[Optican]] scout team dispatched by [[Adam Andrews]] discovered that the ruins were still intact and hadn't been glassed by the Covenant. Given how intact the foliage was in the area, Andrews would wonder if the Covenant had restored the energy shield over the area when the planet had been glassed in order to keep it preserved.{{Ref/Reuse|Hippo}} | |||
In [[2560]], Adam Andrews met with [[Kig-Yar]] salvagers working for [[Nor Fel]] at the ruins to trade the Scarab's [[focus cannon]] for [[rumbledrug]]s. While talking to the scavengers, Andrews explained the history of the battle fought there and how the Covenant had spared the site from glassing. After the deal was completed, the salvagers were ambushed and killed by [[Team Omega]] who secured the focus cannon and framed it so that the salvagers were waylaid after they had departed from Arcadia.{{Ref/Reuse|Hippo}} | |||
