Rueful Respite was a Covenant warship during the Thirteenth Age of Conflict.[1]
History[edit]
In the Thirteenth Age of Conflict, the Rueful Respite received an errant transmission from the Virtuous Deed's glitching communications system revealing the Flood outbreak that had overcome the battlecruiser and its crew. The shipmaster of the Rueful Respite deemed it to be too dangerous for anyone to venture to the planet's surface and annihilated the assimilated battlecruiser from orbit before glassing the planet to contain the outbreak.[1]
The story of the battlecruiser's encounter with the Flood became legendary amongst the Covenant.[1]
