Eirene

Eirene was a human colony world in the Calypso system, governed by the Unified Earth Government.

History
Eirene was settled by humanity and incorporated into the Unified Earth Government in 2410.

The Covenant attacked and ultimately glassed the colony in 2535. Eirene was the homeworld of the Spartan-III supersoldier Jonah-B283, whose entire family was killed in the glassing, making him one of the hundreds of war orphans conscripted into the program. At some point during the Covenant's assault on the world, Spartan-II Kelly-087 triggered a reactor breach that led to a 50 megaton blast towards a Covenant forward operating base, as part of Operation: PALE SHADOW. The destruction of the base allowed the city of New Kona to temporarily survive the battle.
