===Human-Covenant War===
{{Main|Human-Covenant War/Silver}}

By [[2552]], the planet was wracked with civil war.{{Ref/Reuse|makingtheseries}} That year the [[Covenant#Silver Timeline|Covenant]] [[Operation: DEFIANT GLASS|attacked]] an [[Insurrectionist]] outpost on Madrigal while searching for a [[Forerunner]] [[Keystone|artifact]] in a nearby cave system. Despite the intervention of [[SPARTAN-II program/Silver|Spartan-II]] [[Silver Team/Silver|Silver Team]], all of the Insurrectionists were wiped out except for teenager [[Kwan Ha]]. The attacking [[Sangheili]] were wiped out by the Spartans and their [[Kez'katu-pattern Phantom|Phantom]] was captured by the UNSC, but [[Unidentified Kaidon|a single Sangheili]] managed to escape in a Banshee to report to the [[Prophet of Mercy/Silver|Prophet of Mercy]]. [[John-117/Silver|John-117]] retrieved the artifact from the cave system before leaving the planet with Kwan Ha.{{Ref/Film|TV|Episode=[[Contact]]}} 

Following [[Battle at Jin Ha's Outpost|a battle]] at [[Jin Ha's outpost]], tyrannical Madrigal governor [[Vinsher Grath]] was killed by Kwan Ha with the help of [[Soren-066/Silver|Soren]].{{Ref/Film|Id=Inheritance|TV|Episode=[[Inheritance]]}}
