The {{UNSCShip|Spirit of Fire}} followed the Covenant to the system after Professor [[Ellen Anders]] had been captured by [[Arbiter]] [[Ripa 'Moramee]] during the [[Battle for Arcadia]]. The [[shield world]] was eventually destroyed when the crew of the ''Spirit of Fire'' realized that the shield contained ancient {{Class|Sojourner|dreadnought}}s that the Covenant were trying to use. The crew sacrificed their [[Slipspace drive]] to destroy Etran Harborage, resulting in the ship being unable to return to UNSC controlled-space.

In [[2557]], the system was also investigated by the [[Office of Naval Intelligence|ONI]] [[Prowler]] {{UNSCShip|Taurokado}} and [[Fireteam Apollo]]. Searching the debris field, they confirmed it as the remains of a shield world and also uncovered evidence of the ''Spirit of Fire''. At the same time, it was also visited by a [[Jul 'Mdama's Covenant|Covenant]] [[battle group]] led by [[Gek 'Lhar]]. On June 21, UNSC [[AI]] [[Turkish]] generated a report which recommended an asset-denial or counter force operation in the system to deny the Covenant access to any Forerunner technology found there.{{Ref/Reuse|hlc4}} On June 29, a massive UNSC fleet returned to the system and nuked the debris field, blowing it to bits and disrupting its gravity with the system's star. Anything that survived the nuclear bombardment would most likely be pulled into the system's dwarf star, eliminating whatever remained and denying any surviving Forerunner technology to the Covenant.<ref>'''[[Halo: Renegades]]''', ''Chapter 24''</ref>
