In September of [[2558]], as the [[Sangheili]] [[Fleetmaster]] [[Rojka 'Kasaan]] negotiated with the humans with the aid of [[Unified Earth Government|UEG]] envoy [[Melody Azikiwe]], his cousin [[Thars 'Sarov]] launched a coup aided by [[Jiralhanae]] led by [[Jiralhanae Chieftain|Chieftan]] [[Hekabe]]. In the midst of the civil war, Melody awakened [[SPARTAN-II]] [[Gray Team]] from their [[cryo chamber]]s onboard Rojka's flagship the ''[[Unwavering Discipline]]'' where they had been held since Rojka recovered the Spartans from the remains of [[Glyke]]. Recovering [[Whiskey Tango Foxtrot One|their old lifeboat]], Gray Team escaped to the surface of Carrow with Melody and made for [[Gila Station]], a secret [[ONI]] outpost on the planet while Rojka, having all but lost the battle, gave chase, ultimately crashing ''Unwavering Discipline'' in the [[Karfu Mountains]].

Shortly afterwards, Hekabe betrayed Thars, destroying or disabling all of his ships while leading an attack on the human settlement of [[Suraka]] though Hekabe's fleet suffered heavy casualties in the process as well. In reality, Hekabe's purpose on the planet was to access the [[Sharquoi]] [[Sharquoi hive|hive]] beneath Suraka and use the beasts as an army to crush his enemies and take over the galaxy. Having recovered the ''[[vertex]]'' during the [[Battle of Installation 00]], it had taken six years for Hekabe to decipher it and locate the hive on Carrow. Under the command of Governor [[Ellis Gass]], the [[Surakan Militia Volunteers]] managed to [[Operation: BUZZHAWK|destroy Hekabe's flagship]], the {{Pattern|Varric|heavy cruiser}} ''[[Foebane]]''. Undaunted, Hekabe unleashed the Sharquoi upon the humans, who fled to the planet's oases while Hekabe's forces captured Thars' repaired vessels to leave the planet.

After a failed attempt to stop Hekabe from taking control of Thars' ships, Thars was killed by Rojka with the help of Gray Team, Melody and a few surviving Sangheili loyal to Rojka. To stop Hekabe, Ellis, a militia squad, Gray Team, Melody and Rojka teamed up together to [[Battle of the Sharquoi Hive|assault the Sharquoi hive]], Surakan engineers having created a makeshift [[EMP]] cannon that they believed would disrupt Hekabe's control of the ''vertex''. Though they lost the militia members, the EMP worked long enough for Ellis to remove the ''vertex'' and take control of the Sharquoi for herself. Ellis had the Sharquoi kill Hekabe and destroy his captured ships, ending Hekabe's plan. Summoning all the Sharquoi back into the hive, Ellis allowed Gray Team and Rojka to flee in a Pelican dropship while she detonated a [[HAVOK tactical nuclear weapon]] in the hive, destroying it and the hundreds of thousands of Sharquoi within it, but also causing damage to Suraka from the shockwave.{{Ref/Novel|Id=HEnvoy|[[Halo: Envoy]]}}
