On [[2531#February|February 23, 2531]], the ancilla observed the arrival of the [[Covenant]] {{Class|CPV|heavy destroyer}} ''[[Proclamation's Tithe]]'' and the {{UNSCship|Spirit of Fire}}, a modified {{Class|Phoenix|colony ship}} at its installation. It observed the two [[Battle of the Etran Harborage|battle]] fought between the forces of the two vessels but was helpless to stop the [[human]]s from using a [[Shaw-Fujikawa translight engine]] to cause the [[astroengineering|artificial sun]] within the shield world to go supernova, destroying it. To avoid being completely destroyed as well, the ancilla frantically copied pieces of itself over and over again and transmitted them repeatedly to different sections of the world repeatedly as it came apart. As a result, only a small fragment of its original personality and memory remained intact. Despite being reduced as much as it was, the fragment was still able to watch the ''Spirit of Fire'' speed away from the explosion. It was the last thing it remembered before entering a state of dormancy.<ref name="SS17">''[[Halo: Smoke and Shadow]]'', ''Chapter 17''</ref> | On [[2531#February|February 23, 2531]], the ancilla observed the arrival of the [[Covenant]] {{Class|CPV|heavy destroyer}} ''[[Proclamation's Tithe]]'' and the {{UNSCship|Spirit of Fire}}, a modified {{Class|Phoenix|colony ship}} at its installation.
