The ''[[CMA Heracles|Heracles]]'' retreats. On the planet [[Reach]], [[Office of Naval Intelligence|ONI]] brass compare the event with the [[Battle of Chi Ceti]] and ask a retired [[Vice Admiral]] [[Preston Jeremiah Cole|Preston Cole]] to command a force to retake Harvest. He and his fleet arrive at Harvest on the 1st of March 2526, just to find the same ship which destroyed the two frigates a few months earlier. The UNSC ships succeeded in defeating the Covenant vessel, but lost ships in the process. | ||
Mass media are ordered to keep events regarding the Covenant secret and replace the battle information with that of a communications satellite captured by Insurgents, whom Cole was sent for; the colonies of [[Second Base]] and [[Green Hills]] are reported as Insurgent bases but were actually [[glassing|glassed]]. Also the loss of [[Chi Ceti IV]] is kept secret. | Mass media are ordered to keep events regarding the Covenant secret and replace the battle information with that of a communications satellite captured by Insurgents, whom Cole was sent for; the colonies of [[Second Base]] and [[Green Hills]] are reported as Insurgent bases but were actually [[glassing|glassed]].
