Ministry of Fervent Intercession

The Ministry of Fervent Intercession was a Covenant ministry that dealt with securing Forerunner reliquaries. The ministry oversaw the deployment of Sangheili Zealots to achieve this goal. The Devoted Sentries—a unit of Zealots tasked with the recovering of Forerunner artifacts—was hand-picked and drawn from the Ministry of Fervent Intercession by Supreme Commander Rho 'Barutamee.

Though Zealots (largely from Hesduros) continued to serve among the reformed Covenant led by Jul 'Mdama faction as late as 2558, the ministry itself was likely disbanded with the dissolution of the Covenant in 2552.

Trivia
