With no ability to enter [[Slipstream space]], and the journey back to UNSC space likely to take years, if not decades, the ''Spirit of Fire's'' crew went into [[Cryo chamber|cryostasis]].

The reason for this change was kept top secret. A memorial service was held for the people aboard the vessel, but many of the crew's family members chose not to attend, holding out hope that their loved ones are still alive.{{Ref/Reuse|timeline}} The ship would not make contact with the outside world until [[2559]], when it was unexpectedly transported to [[Installation 00]].<ref>'''Halo Wars 2''', campaign level ''[[The Signal]]''</ref>

The [[The Assembly|Assembly]], having intercepted transmissions from the [[Covenant battle network]], noted the presence of the Flood as a "third variable". Due to the third participant being a terrifying opponent to the Covenant, the [[Assembly Minority]] suggested the possibility of forming an association - even a union - with it. However, due to the risks involved, the Assembly chose not to attempt contact with the Flood.{{Ref/Reuse|Assembly}}

In early [[2557]], nearly twenty-six years after the shield world's destruction, the ''[[Ace of Spades]]'', a [[salvager]] vessel captained by Sergeant John Forge's daughter [[Rion Forge]], visited the debris field and recovered [[Little Bit|a fragment]] of the shield world's custodian AI.<ref>'''Halo: Smoke and Shadow'''</ref> Several months later, ONI conducted a [[Mission to the Korinth Prior system|mission]] within its debris field to search for evidence of the ''Spirit of Fire'',<ref>'''[[Halo Legendary Crate]]''', ''[[Halo Legendary Crate/Data Drops|Data Drop #4]]''</ref> having learned of it from data stolen from the ''Ace of Spades''. Shortly after the ''Ace of Spades'' was returned to the debris field by [[343 Guilty Spark]], a massive UNSC fleet emerged from slipspace and nuked the debris field. The nuclear bombardment was expected to blow the field to bits and disrupt its orbit around the system's star. Anything that survived would most likely be pulled into the star's gravity well and destroyed, completely eradicating the remnants of Trove.<ref>'''[[Halo: Renegades]]'''</ref>
