He also threatened 'Zamamee with execution when the first attempt on the Chief failed. | During the battle above Halo, Stewardship was aboard a Covenant destroyer under command of [[Shipmaster]] [[Orna 'Fulsamee]].<ref name="flood4"/> The Prophet forbade the fleet from using [[plasma torpedo]]es to destroy the ''Pillar of Autumn'', saying that a stray torpedo could damage Halo, an order Thel 'Vadamee overrode.<ref name="Rerelease"/> This proved to be a grave mistake as the ''Pillar of Autumn'' held out against the Covenant boarders long enough to crash land on the ring.

As the battle wore on, Stewardship, alternating between the ''[[Truth and Reconciliation]]'' on the ground and the ''[[Ascendant Justice]]'' in orbit, began to disregard the [[Sangheili]]'s authority. When he discovered a [[Gas Mine]] located in Threshold which was clearly [[Forerunner]] in origin, Stewardship sent an expeditionary force under [[Sesa 'Refumee]] and [[Loka 'Bandolee]] to investigate, an act which Thel 'Vadamee believed unwise because of the [[human]] presence. Two more teams were sent to secure a weapon's cache, both of which lost contact, leading a fourth to be sent. Thel finally sent a formal request to cease force misappropriation, which was ignored. The failure to secure a science facility resulted in the execution of [[Soha 'Rolamee]]. At this point, Thel 'Vadamee sent a single infantry unit to relieve the Prophet of Stewardship until the humans were eliminated, but Stewardship ordered them destroyed on final approach to the ''Ascendant Justice'', warning that any further affronts to his leadership would be met with equally lethal results. Thel finally assembled a force to retake the ''Ascendant Justice'' and physically relieve the Prophet, but Stewardship relocated to the ''Truth and Reconciliation'', leaving orders for the crew to arrest the Supreme Commander if he interfered with his consecration of the Ring, an order the crew ignored.
