Prior to [[2531]], a Flood outbreak on the surface of [[ | Prior to [[2531]], a Flood outbreak on the surface of the [[Etran Harborage]] had led to the establishment of Flood Blightlands across the [[shield world]]'s outer surface. The infection of [[Human|humans]] from the [[UNSC Spirit of Fire|UNSC ''Spirit of Fire'']] and [[Covenant]] forces would lead to the establishment of Flood [[Flood den|den]]s, [[Flood hive|hive]]s, [[Flood nest|nest]]s, [[Flood colony|colonies]] and, most importantly, a [[Proto-Gravemind]]. The shield world's [[Battle of the Etran Harborage|destruction]] would ultimately destroy the blightlands here. | ||

Following the destruction of ''[[High Charity]]'' in the [[Battle of Installation 00]], the gargantuan Flood hive's ruins were quarantined by the installation's [[Sentinel]]s. Approximately three-hundred meters away from the perimeter, life stopped growing and the area was absent of any kind of noise.<ref name="Pandora's Box">'''Halo Wars 2''', ''[[Phoenix Logs]]'' - Pandora's Box</ref> For seven years, the Flood inside the quarantine zone would continue to fester until the shield was broken by [[Voridus]] during the [[Second Ark Conflict]], hoping to salvage old war-era Covenant equipment from the ruins of the city. The Flood would quickly escape this breach and begin turning the area surrounding the destroyed ruins of ''High Charity'' into a blightland, eventually cocooning UNSC and [[Banished]] bases and establishing a new Proto-Gravemind. The Gravemind would eventually be destroyed by Banished [[Mega turret]]s, however, and the Sentinel network activated to reenact the quarantine of the facility. | |||
