After an attempt at airlifting the drive failed, the mission was changed into a ground operation, with the intent of using an [[M312 Elephant]] to tow the reactor to the [[teleporter]] on the top of the hill, which was full of Covenant and Flood forces. The UNSC established a [[firebase]] on the bottom of the hill, and gradually ascended the towering hill up to the Apex Base Site, meeting determined resistance from the Covenant. They eventually reached a [[Slipspace translocation|teleporter]] that took [[John Forge|Sergeant John Forge]], a Marine lieutenant, and Red Team to the Apex's control center with the slipspace drive.{{Ref/Reuse|reactor}} | After an attempt at airlifting the drive failed, the mission was changed into a ground operation, with the intent of using an [[M312 Elephant]] to tow the reactor to the [[teleporter]] on the top of the hill, which was full of Covenant and Flood forces.

Upon arriving at the Apex Site's control center, the lieutenant, Forge and the Red Team proceeded with the mission. The lieutenant went to open the door of the elevator, Forge started to unload the reactor from its transport, while the Red Team guarded them. However, the Arbiter, who had previously been [[Active camouflage|cloaked]], appeared and killed the lieutenant just after the latter had activated the lift to the inner star. Simultaneously, multiple [[Sangheili]] warriors emerged from cloaking from the other end of the platform and charged the Spartans. Forge decided to take on the Arbiter himself, while the Red Team would hold off the Elites.<ref name="monsters">'''Halo Wars''' ''cutscene [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nlNHT57SbkA&feature=player_embedded "Monsters"]''</ref> | Upon arriving at the Apex Site's control center, the lieutenant, Forge and the Red Team proceeded with the mission.

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 UNSC [[Office of Naval Intelligence]] declared the ''Spirit'' and crew to be [[missing in action]]. In [[2534]], the ''Spirit of Fire'' was declared to be "lost with all hands" by the UNSC. 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]]. | 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 [[The Assembly|Assembly]], having intercepted transmissions from the [[proselytization 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}} | The [[The Assembly|Assembly]], having intercepted transmissions from the [[proselytization network]], noted the presence of the Flood as a "third variable".

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> | 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/Novel|Ren}} | ||
