While the battle for Earth raged, the Covenant had been attempting to maintain a quarantine of the [[The Flood|Flood]]-infested ''[[High Charity]]'' and [[Installation 05]]. One Flood [[unidentified Flood-captured battlecruiser|ship]] escaped and arrived at Earth as the Prophet of Truth departed through the Portal. The ship crashed in Voi and began infesting the area. John-117 and Thel 'Vadam quickly made for the crash site intending to overload the ship's reactor. The explosion would destroy the city but would hopefully stop the spreading infestation as well.<ref name="H3Flood">'''Halo 3''', campaign level, ''[[Floodgate]]''</ref> | While the battle for Earth raged, the Covenant had been attempting to maintain a quarantine of the [[The Flood|Flood]]-infested ''[[High Charity]]'' and [[Installation 05]].

[[ | [[Swords of Sanghelios|Sangheili]] ships, led by [[Fleet Master]] [[Rtas 'Vadum]] aboard the [[CAS-class assault carrier|assault carrier]] ''[[Shadow of Intent]]'', arrived in pursuit of the Flood. The Sangheili believed [[Cortana]] was aboard the Flood ship; Rtas 'Vadum could give his own troops and the UNSC only a little time to recover the AI before Voi and the surrounding area were cleansed by [[glassing]]. John-117 found the small storage device containing the AI; he entrusted to [[343 Guilty Spark]] for repairs and they were extracted by [[Type-52 Troop Carrier|Phantom]] to ''Shadow of Intent''.<ref name="H3Flood"/> | ||
Thel 'Vadam convinced Rtas 'Vadum to exercise restraint when glassing. Thus, only an area of Africa was glassed instead of a much wider area.<ref name="H3Flood"/> | Thel 'Vadam convinced Rtas 'Vadum to exercise restraint when glassing.
