The '''Second Ark Conflict'''<ref>''[[Halo: Warfleet]]'', p. 48</ref> was a large [[battle]] fought between the isolated [[United Nations Space Command]] [[UNSC Armed Forces|forces]] of the ''[[UNSC Spirit of Fire|Spirit of Fire]]'' and the [[Covenant remnants|Covenant splinter group]] known as the [[Banished]] in [[2559]], about six years after the [[Human-Covenant War]] [[Battle of Installation 00|ended]] on the same ancient [[Forerunner]] [[Astroengineering|installation]] known as [[Installation 00|the Ark]]. After mysteriously arriving at the Ark on [[2559#March|March 28, 2559]], the long-lost crew of the ''Spirit of Fire'' were awoken from [[Cryonics|cryosleep]] and soon came into hostile contact with the powerful mercenary organization. During the battle, the UNSC destroyed the Banished's flagship, the ''[[Enduring Conviction]]'', and initiated the deployment sequence of [[Installation 09|one]] of the Ark's [[Halo Array|Halo rings]], one of an array of massive ring-shaped superweapons capable of destroying all sentient life in [[Milky Way|the galaxy]], intending to use it to send a [[distress beacon]] to [[Human colonies|human space]]. | The '''Second Ark Conflict'''<ref>''[[Halo: Warfleet]]'', p. 48</ref> was a large [[battle]] fought between the isolated [[United Nations Space Command]] [[UNSC Armed Forces|forces]] of the ''[[UNSC Spirit of Fire|Spirit of Fire]]'' and the [[Covenant remnants|Covenant splinter group]] known as the [[Banished]] in [[2559]], about six years after the [[Human-Covenant War]] [[Battle of Installation 00|ended]] on the same ancient [[Forerunner]] [[Astroengineering|installation]] known as [[Installation 00|the Ark]].
