UNSC Dawn Under Heaven

Summary
The Halcyon-class cruiser Dawn Under Heaven is the sister ship of the Pillar of Autumn. At Reach, the Dawn Under Heaven fell to the Covenant. Before the modifications to the vessel, the ship was due to be scrapped–the Halcyon-class was widely regarded as a joke by UNSC officers and crewmen. The refitted Dawn Under Heaven, however, was one of the most powerful ships available to the UNSC.
