This battle marked the end of the Flood threat. As the incomplete Installation 04B fired, it obliterated itself, along with all Flood and Sentinel forces as well as any surviving Covenant forces on it or the Ark, which being directly below the installation, was severely damaged.<ref name="Array"/>


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 [[First 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 faction|reformed Covenant sect]] which had sought out Requiem and the [[Promethean]] forces within the shield world.<ref>'''Halo 4'''</ref>
