Ages of Reconciliation

During the Ages of Reconciliation, the Prophets shared the information learned about the Forerunners with the Elites. The Elites and the Prophets made a truce to unite to form the Covenant with the Elites being promised salvation in exchange for their services as the military and protection. Presumably, this is when the Covenant Writ of Union was created. The Covenant ship Truth and Reconciliation that appeared on Alpha Halo might have been named after this time, and after Truth, the Prophet.
