After the Human-Covenant War, there was competition between the UNSC and the Sangheili, when it came to examining [[Forerunner]] ruins and relics like the [[Portal at Voi]].<ref>'''[[Halo: Evolutions]]''' - ''[[From the Office of Dr. William Arthur Iqbal]]''</ref> By March 2553, a [[Treaty of 2552|tentative ceasefire]] continued to exist between humanity and the Sangheili. Although the [[Swords of Sanghelios]], led by [[Arbiter]] [[Thel 'Vadam]], campaigned for peace between the two species across various Sangheili states, many Sangheili continued to view humans with suspicion, perceiving them as a threat and wanting to destroy them once and for all. At the same time, the UNSC's [[Office of Naval Intelligence]], led by [[Serin Osman]], took advantage of the unstable political situation, attempting to keep the Sangheili splintered and disorganized by inciting the [[Servants of the Abiding Truth]], led by [[Avu Med 'Telcam]], to rebel against 'Vadam. This was to make sure the Sangheili would not pose a threat to humanity again, in spite of the UNSC's alliance with the Arbiter's faction.<ref>'''Halo: Glasslands''', Chapter 1, ''page 66''</ref> | After the Human-Covenant War, there was competition between the UNSC and the Sangheili, when it came to examining [[Forerunner]] ruins and relics like the [[Portal at Voi]].<ref>'''[[Halo: Evolutions]]''' - ''[[From the Office of Dr. William Arthur Iqbal]]''</ref> By March 2553, a [[Treaty of 2552|tentative ceasefire]] continued to exist between humanity and the Sangheili.

ONI's aid allowed the Servants of the Abiding Truth to amass enough weapons to begin an [[Blooding Years|all-out insurrection]] against 'Vadam and his allies in early 2553, which was among the [[Post-Covenant War conflicts|series of conflicts]] that followed the [[Human-Covenant War|Great War]]. Meanwhile, however, ONI's efforts also backfired; partially as a result of their actions the Sangheili [[Jul 'Mdama]] began a personal quest against humanity, forming a Sangheili-led [[Jul 'Mdama's Covenant|reconstituted Covenant]] mainly from ex-Covenant forces. Four years after the battle at the Ark, this group launched an invasion on the [[Forerunner]] [[shield world]] [[Requiem]], intending to find and awaken the [[Ur-Didact|Didact]], a Forerunner [[Promethean]] they revered as a living god. Meanwhile many Sangheili resumed [[Great Schism|their feud]] with the hostile factions of [[Jiralhanae]] and thus the Sangheili were fighting in a two-front war. | ONI's aid allowed the Servants of the Abiding Truth to amass enough weapons to begin an [[Blooding Years|all-out insurrection]] against 'Vadam and his allies in early 2553, which was among the [[Post-Covenant War conflicts|series of conflicts]] that followed the [[Human-Covenant War|Great War]].
