The Battle of Earth officially concluded when the Prophet of Truth s Forerunner Dreadnought and the remaining warships of Truths Fleet left Earth through the Portal with the purpose of activating the Halo Array from The Ark. However, several Imperial units were left behind and fighting continued for at least another three weeks before the remaining holdouts were eradicated by Human-Sangheili Hunter-Killer Teams.
