Nizat refers to Unrelenting as "his" ship, indicating it was a scouting element of his fleet. Perhaps Unrelenting is an intrusion corvette?

By March of [[2526]], the Covenant remained unaware of exactly what had befallen the ''Unrelenting''. A dispatch sent to the [[Fleet of Inexorable Obdience]] during a lull in the battle expressed the confidence of the [[Shipmaster]] that after a fierce initial engagement, the vessel would prove victorious and then seek repairs at [[Zhoist]]. However, the ''Unrelenting'' never arrived and its fate was the subject of much speculation amongst [[Fleetmaster]] [[Nizat 'Kvarosee]]'s staff officers. As a result, when the [[United Rebel Front]] offered information on the destruction of the ''Unrelenting'' alongside that of the ''[[Radiant Arrow]]'', Nizat's interest was drawn.<ref | By March of [[2526]], the Covenant remained unaware of exactly what had befallen the ''Unrelenting''.

In the ''[[Halo: Fall of Reach]]'' comic adaptation and ''[[Halo: The Fall of Reach - The Animated Series]]'', ''Unrelenting'' is depicted as a {{Class|CCS|battlecruiser}}.This is a departure from the novel, which describes the ship as being a sleek ovoid a third the size of the ''Commonwealth'', with a single lateral line running its length.<ref>'''Halo: The Fall of Reach''', ''page 105''</ref> [[Frank O'Connor]] commented that Covenant ships in the animated series were portrayed differently from the novel for the purposes of the adaptation, leaving the ship's canonical class ambiguous.<ref name="canonfodder">[https://www.halowaypoint.com/en-us/community/blog-posts/canon-fodder-reaching-out '''Halo Waypoint''': ''Canon Fodder - Reaching Out'']</ref> In ''[[Halo: Silent Storm]]'', [[Vice Admiral]] [[Michael Stanforth]] stated that the ''Unrelenting'' was "frigate-size," but did not go so far as to actually call it a [[Covenant frigate]]. | |||
