Biography

Life as the general of the Covenant army

Fal was the Aribiter, which at the time, was the general of the Covenant army. Fal was tough but fair to his men. He was a man of honor. However, he believes that his people have strayed from their honor and now fight for power. He also believed that the Great Journey was a lie. For this he was declared a heretic. To try and dispose of him, the Prophets sent their army to kill him. Fal's skill with a blade were unmatched by the entire army. At the very end of the battle, Fal was only one left standing.

Duel with Harka

Because Fal was declared a heretic, Harka, a member of Fal's clan, took advantage of the event. In an attempt to provoke and defeat Fal, Harka forced one of Fal's closest friends into killing Fal's wife, Han. Fal came back home after the battle to find Roh and Han's bodies. When he found Han he was in so much grief, he let out a cry of deep sorrow.[1] He swiftly moved to accept Harka's challenge, brutally plowing his way through an entire Covenant Army unit to reach his wife's murderer. When Fal finally met Harka atop a Forerunner structure, the duel began. After being mortally wounded by Harka's blade, Fal managed to stab his foe. They both died by each other's hands. Fal's last thoughts before dying was the memories of his wife.[1]

Legacy

Before Fal's actions, the rank of Arbiter was considered a privilege. Fal's heresy led the Prophets to declare that the rank of Arbiter would thenceforth be one without honor, given to those who could be useful to them as a last chance to regain their lost honor before death.

Trivia

  • The episode's subtitles mistakenly show Fal's name as "Thel".
