The Harbinger of Piety was a Covenant CCS-class battlecruiser under the command of the Minister of Inquisition.
Operational history
Battle of Cleveland
- Main article: Battle of Cleveland
The ship carried at least one Prophet, the Minister of Inquisition. The Prophet was curious about a Forerunner artifact called the Key of Osanalan, which was in fact, fake. It had been made up by James and Ruwan Ackerson when they were young.
Ruwan Ackerson had met the Covenant and told the Covenant that he was actually the key. Confused, the Covenant took the humans to the Harbinger. In reality, Ruwan had been implanted with an organic tracker for the UNSC to find and destroy high ranking Covenant officials.
Trivia
Harbinger of Piety is first depicted with four forward ventral prongs, as seen on CCS-class battlecruisers in Halo 3. However, the panel showing its destruction depicts it as only having two prongs like those in Halo: Combat Evolved and Halo 2.
