==Background==
==Background==
The ''Musashi'' was one of the hundreds of ships that was present at the [[Fall of Reach]] on [[2552#August|August 30, 2552]]. While moving to cover [[Reach]]'s [[orbital defense platform]]s, ''Musashi '' was hit by an [[energy projector]] from a [[Covenant]] [[Kewu-pattern battleship|warship]]. The beam severed the ''Musashi'' amidships, instantly putting her out of the fight. The aft section's engines were still burning even after it was severed from the rest of the ship.<ref>'''Halo: The Fall of Reach''', ''page 320''; '''2001'''</ref>
