Covenant: Difference between revisions

After the UNSC stronghold [[Reach]] fell to the Covenant in [[2552]], they made a discovery of tremendous significance: a single UNSC vessel, the [[UNSC Pillar of Autumn|''Pillar of Autumn'']], had made a supposedly blind jump away from the battle, inadvertently leading the [[Fleet of Particular Justice|pursuing Covenant fleet]] to the location of [[Installation 04|one]] of the seven Halo rings.{{Ref/Level|CE|[[The Pillar of Autumn (Halo: Combat Evolved level)|The Pillar of Autumn]]}}The Covenant's celebration following the discovery of this prized relic was short-lived, however, as a small group of UNSC forces—among them the fearsome, enigmatic soldier known to Covenant forces as "[[John-117|the Demon]]"—managed to destroy the ring by detonating the ''Pillar of Autumn''{{'}}s [[fusion drive|fusion engines]].{{Ref/Level|CE|[[The Maw]]}} [[Thel 'Vadam]]ee, the [[Supreme Commander]] of the fleet present at Halo, was branded a heretic for his failure to save the ring,{{Ref/Level|H2|[[The Heretic]]}} although he was subsequently appointed an [[Arbiter]].{{Ref/Level|H2|[[The Arbiter]]}}

During the events on the second Halo, the two remaining Hierarchs used the Sangheili's failure to safeguard Regret as an opportunity to replace the Sangheili with Jiralhanae as their protectors and military leaders. The two Prophets had doubts about the Sangheili's loyalty to the Covenant cause, and used the opportunity to ensure that there would be no future dissidence in the Covenant. However, this move greatly angered the Sangheili, who threatened to resign from the High Council.<ref>'''Halo 2''', campaign level ''[[Sacred Icon]]''</ref>
