While ''Forward Unto Dawn'' was entering the Portal the field collapsed, severing the ship in two. The bow, with Thel inside, made it to the exit coordinates above Earth and crashed into the Indian Ocean. The stern section was less fortunate, being thrown out of the collapsing slipspace field on the way. John and Cortana were trapped in the wreckage as it drifted in space for several years, eventually being caught in the gravity of [[Requiem]], a Forerunner [[shield world]], in [[2557]]. This led to a series of [[Battle of Requiem|series of skirmishes]] as the Master Chief and Cortana struggled to find a way back to human space, opposed by a [[Jul 'Mdama's Covenant|reformed Covenant faction]] which had sought out Requiem and the [[Ur-Didact]]'s [[Promethean#Mechancical Prometheans|Promethean]] forces within the shield world.<ref>'''Halo 4'''</ref>

Some time after the battle, the UNSC dispatched a number of scouting groups to the wreckage of the Ark. While it was originally assumed that 343 Guilty Spark was destroyed by John-117, it was later found that he survived his damages, albeit in an irreversibly damaged state. He sent a distress signal that was heard by the UNSC teams. In response, a scout vessel, {{UNSCShip|Rubicon}}, was sent to investigate. The crew discovered the remains of Guilty Spark's monitor shell among the wreckage and brought him back to the ship,<ref>'''[[Eleventh Hour reports|Eleventh Hour report 4]]'''</ref> where he told them [[Halo: Primordium|his life story]]. Afterward, his crippled shell was jettisoned into space. Just before this, however, he uploaded his consciousness into the ship's computer, purged its AI, rendered the crew unconscious, and set a course for where he believed the [[Librarian]] to be.<ref>'''Halo: Primordium'''</ref>

In mid [[2559]], the [[Banished]] and the crew of the UNSC ''Spirit of Fire'' fought for control over the Ark, which by then had fully repaired itself and finished constructing [[Installation 09|a second replacement ring]]. At some point during the conflict, the Banished inadvertently released a number of surviving Flood forms from the remains of [[High Charity]], thus starting a second Flood outbreak on the Ark, and validating the Gravemind's final warning.<ref name="WN">[https://www.halowaypoint.com/en-us/news/introducing-halo-wars-2-awakening-the-nightmare '''Halo Waypoint''' ''- Introducing Halo Wars 2: Awakening the Nightmare'']</ref>
