In early [[2552#November|November 2552]], the system became the site of the enormous [[Battle of Installation 05]] as the Covenant holy city of ''[[High Charity]]'', its [[High Charity defense fleet|defensive fleet]], a small group of UNSC forces on the {{UNSCShip|In Amber Clad}} arrived at Installation 05. Over the course of the battle, [[the Flood]] on the installation escaped containment, and the ring was [[Glassing|sterilized]] by the combined ''High Charity'' defensive fleets as a result.<ref>'''Halo: The Essential Visual Guide''', ''page 46''</ref>

Both the system and the ring were quarantined after the war, and as of [[2558]], both the UNSC and [[Swords of Sanghelios]] ships patrol the region.<ref name="HOSFM84">''[[Halo: Official Spartan Field Manual]]'', ''page 99''</ref>
