Template:Triple battle infobox The Battle of Janjur Qom was a short battle fought on the primary San 'Shyuum world Janjur Qom when the inhabitants of the planet rebelled against the Forerunner forces enforcing the quarantine of the planet.[1]
Background
Days before the rebellion, the Librarian had briefly visited Janjur Qom to collect specimens to protect them from the impending Flood attack. This visit sparked unrest among the San 'Shyuum, who correctly surmised that the Librarian's visit could only mean that their lives were in jeopardy.
Battle
The San 'Shyuum soon began a full rebellion, using a cache of hidden weapons and ships to make war on the Forerunners. The Forerunners, Builder Security forces under the leadership of Master Builder Faber, used hundreds of seeker and Diversion-class war machines against the San 'Shyuum.[1] A Forerunner fleet was permitted entry into the quarantine shield with full functionality and power, soon overwhelming the San 'Shyuum defenses and taking control of the planet. A Halo ring was then unexpectedly brought in and used to sterilize the planet on the Master Builder's orders.
Aftermath
The battle devastated the surface of Janjur Qom, destroying most of the planet.
During the battle, the Master Builder's forces interdicted and destroyed the Didact's ship in orbit; as a result, the Didact, Bornstellar Makes Eternal Lasting, Chakas, and Riser were captured by the Master Builder. The Didact was interrogated and was believed to have been executed shortly after the conclusion of the battle,[2] while Bornstellar was sent back to his family. Chakas and Riser were placed in captivity and were to be delivered to Installation 07 to have their ancestral memory imprints extracted.[3]
After the battle, Faber was tried before the Capital Court for misconduct and violation of the Mantle due to his unsanctioned use of a Halo ring, a weapon intended as a final resort, to suppress a mere rebellion.[4]
