Part of the defining union between the San'Shyuum and the Sangheili was the division of labor it created: the San'Shyuum would serve as the Covenant's religious leaders and scientists, studying Forerunner technology and seeking how to use the [[Halo Array]] to initiate the [[Covenant religion#Great Journey|Great Journey]], which would propel the faithful to join the [[Forerunner]]s in a state of divine transcendence. In return for sharing this knowledge, the Sangheili would serve as the San'Shyuum's protectors and warriors, using weapons and technology developed by the San'Shyuum, and having total control over all security matters. As the Covenant expanded and incorporated other races, they were made soldiers under the Sangheili. | Part of the defining union between the San'Shyuum and the Sangheili was the division of labor it created: the San'Shyuum would serve as the Covenant's religious leaders and scientists, studying Forerunner technology and seeking how to use the [[Halo Array]] to initiate the [[Covenant religion#Great Journey|Great Journey]], which would propel the faithful to join the [[Forerunner]]s in a state of divine transcendence.
