After the Treaty of 2552, the Office of Naval Intelligence, believed that keeping the Sangheili mired in internal dissent would leave them unable to threaten the weakened UNSC. This opinion contrasted with that of most of the Unified Earth Government, which believed a peace treaty was desirable. ONI took advantage of the Sangheili's unstable political situation, attempting to keep the Sangheili splintered and disorganized by inciting the Servants of the Abiding Truth to rebel against 'Vadam. ONI's aid allowed the Servants of the Abiding Truth to amass enough weapons to begin an all-out insurrection against 'Vadam and his allies in early 2553. When the fighting on Sanghelios started, ONI black ops unit [[Kilo-Five]] were ordered to keep the planet destabilized for fear that the Sangheili would oppose humanity if they were politically unified, and so they used their [[prowler]] {{UNSCShip|Port Stanley}} to destroy some of 'Vadam's cruisers. This caused a temporary stalemate, but the battle continued until 'Vadam and his allies emerged victorious. The Servants retreated off-world to [[New Llanelli]] to recover from their losses, putting the war on hold.{{Ref/Reuse|HTTW}}

In [[2553#March|March 2553]], [[Kig-Yar]] [[piracy|pirate]] [[Sav Fel]] stole a {{Class|CCS|battlecruiser}}, the ''[[Pious Inquisitor]]'', from the Servants of the Abiding Truth.{{Ref/Novel|TTW|Page=329}} Fel retreated with the battlecruiser to his manor on [[Venezia]], where he sold it to [[Insurrectionist]] [[Staffan Sentzke]], a commander in the [[Venezian militia]], who intended to use it to threaten [[Earth]] to learn about [[Naomi-010|his daughter's]] fate.{{Ref/Novel|MorDi|Page=12}} The crew of ''[[Paragon]]''—led by [[Shipmaster|Shipmistress]] [[Chol Von]]—was hired by Avu Med 'Telcam to retrieve the vessel and arrived at the cruiser's [[Shaps system|location]] in April 2553, with Fel.
