At the end of the battle, the UNSC ordered [[SPARTAN-IV program|Spartan]] [[Sarah Palmer]] to eliminate Merg Vol who, despite his forces being broken, could still act as a rallying point and cry for his followers. As a result, Merg Vol had to be eliminated if they were to get the colonists safely off the planet. Aware that his Covenant knew about her stolen [[Dextro Xur-pattern Spirit|Spirit dropships]] and would likely shoot them down, Palmer instead stole [[Parg Vol]]'s [[Phantom gunboat|personal transport]] to reach X50. The Trojan Horse proved to be successful with Palmer slipping through Vol's Covenant fleet in orbit undetected, Vol having ordered the shooting down of all but the officers' Phantoms.
