''Halo 3'' takes place two weeks after the end of ''Halo 2''. The Covenant have all but obliterated human resistance on Earth, and have committed most of their forces in East Africa, near the ruins of Mombasa. Marines and the Arbiter [[Recovery of John-117|recover]] Master Chief John-117 after he jumps from the [[Forerunner Dreadnought]] as it entered Earth's atmosphere, and they all make their way back to the local UNSC base, [[Crow's Nest]]. The Master Chief [[Attack on Crow's Nest|defends the base]], ultimately destroying it with a [[Unidentified UNSC bomb|bomb]]. He regroups with a small group of Marines and they rally scattered UNSC forces before [[Assault on the Tsavo Highway|assaulting]] the Covenant-held [[Tsavo Highway (location)|Tsavo Highway]], clearing a path into [[Voi]].

It is revealed that a large Forerunner artifact has been dug up under the African desert by the Covenant, and the Prophet of Truth is planning to activate it. Presumably this is the Ark, so therefore this would activate the Halos, and so a [[Battle of Voi|hasty attack]] is set in motion by Lord Hood to destroy the Forerunner Dreadnought with a surprise aerial assault. Master Chief clears Voi of all Covenant anti-air units to clear the path for Lord Hood's frigates for an assault on the dreadnought. However, the assault on the dreadnought has absolutely no effect, and Truth activates the artifact all the same. A large portal is created above the artifact, into which the Covenant forces disappear. Soon after, a [[unidentified Flood-captured battlecruiser|derelict Covenant cruiser]] appears out of Slipspace, and crashes nearby, infested with Flood.
