===Human-Covenant War=== | |||
On [[2552#March|March 9, 2552]], the [[Covenant]] attacked a BXR Mining Corporation facility on a [[Human colonies|human colony]]. A group of miners volunteered to extract a haul of exotic ore that would be used in the creation of the [[SPARTAN-II program|Spartan-II]]s' [[MJOLNIR Powered Assault Armor]]. While they successfully retrieved and delivered the ore, the Covenant bombardment caused a cave-in that blocked their escape. Trapped, one of the miners began singing. The other miners joined in before the cave ultimately collapsed on top of them.{{Ref/Generic|Id=Lightbringers|Heading=[[Become]]|Subheading=[[UNSC Archives]]|Detail=[[Lightbringers]]}} | |||
