The Warden was created by the [[Domain]] following the activation of the [[Halo Array]]. Heavily damaged by the firing of the Array, the Domain created the Warden by gathering together the essences of millions of [[Haruspis|Haruspices]] as the hasty, imperfect template to create a protector because who better to serve as a protector than those with an intimate understanding and devotion to the Domain. However, the combined devotion became obsession over time.{{Ref/Reuse|Epi14}}

Heavily damaged by the firing of the Array, the Domain created the Warden by gathering together the essences of millions of [[Haruspis|Haruspices]] as a hasty, imperfect template to create a protector because there was no better option for a protector, atleast according to the lone remaining Haruspis that was with the Ur-Didact, than those that possessed an intimate understanding and devotion to the Domain. However, the combined devotion that these millions of Haruspis essences retained became an intensive obsession over time.{{Ref/Reuse|Epi14}}
