Ardent Prayer was a Covenant SDV-class heavy corvette attached to the Fleet of Valiant Prudence. Its Shipmaster was Ardo 'Moretumee.[1] The vessel took part in the initial stages of the Covenant's invasion of the planet Reach in summer 2552.[2][3]
Overview
During Operation: UPPER CUT on August 14, 2552, Ardent Prayer was boarded by SPARTAN-B312, Jorge-052, and several YSS-1000 Sabre pilots in an effort to plant a Shaw-Fujikawa Translight Engine on board, which would be used to destroy a nearby CSO-class supercarrier, Long Night of Solace - the fleet's flagship. During the mission, the ship was engaged by the UNSC frigate Savannah. Savannah jammed Ardent Prayer's communications, while the Sabres damaged the corvette's engines and destroyed its Seraph escort so its crew could not call for help.[3]
Ardent Prayer destroyed Savannah, but not before a boarding party had landed on the corvette. The UNSC team eliminated the bridge crew, including its Shipmaster, Ardo 'Moretumee, and set the ship on a refueling track with Long Night of Solace. The operation succeeded, and Ardent Prayer, along with the supercarrier, was destroyed by the rigged slipspace drive.[3][1]
Trivia
- Ardent Prayer is the setting of the Halo: Reach multiplayer map Zealot and the Firefight map Corvette.
