The CIH '''''Glacial Calm''''' was a [[JumpShip]] in service with the [[Clan Ice Hellion Touman|Clan Ice Hellion ''touman'']]. In April [[3072]] the [[Clan Ice Hellion]] ''[[Potemkin]]''-class cruiser [[Coterie|CIH ''Coterie'']] and the survivors of [[Beta Galaxy (Clan Ice Hellion)|Beta Galaxy]] were in the [[Deep Periphery]] awaiting any other survivors from the failed [[Operation ICE STORM]] when the Hellions found themselves the target of an attack by [[Zeta Galaxy (Clan Burrock)|Zeta Galaxy]] of the resurgent [[Clan Burrock]].<ref name="WoRp98+">''The Wars of Reaving'', p. 98-99, "Dark Periphery"</ref>

Gathered at DS-822, a waystation star on the trade route between the [[Clan Homeworlds]] and the Inner Sphere maintained by [[Clan Diamond Shark]], the small Ice Hellion fleet had Zeta Galaxy arrive unannounced and nearby. The [[HPG]] transmitter on the ''Coterie'' had been destroyed, leaving the Ice Hellions unaware of the ongoing situation in the Homeworlds; as a result, the fleet was completely unprepared when the Burrocks launched a ferocious attack. Two of the five [[JumpShip]]s within the fleet, the ''Glacial Calm'' and the [[Snowbird|CIH ''Snowbird'']], managed to escape, eventually reaching [[Hector (system)|Hector]] in December 3072; the other three ships were lost or destroyed. The ''Coterie'' also managed to escape but at the cost of a damaged KF-drive, arriving at a system unmarked on the various Clan star charts.<ref name="WoRp98+"/>
