Toward the end of the [[Forerunner-Flood war]], one of the two Didacts desperately struggled to come up with solutions to counter the effects of the Flood; one of these was [[Forerunner mutation|mutating]] himself further to a new form. However, this failed to grant him immunity to the Flood, leaving only the [[Composer]] as a viable solution. While the Composer did not work on the Didact's new form, his warriors volunteered to be processed, transferring them from their biological forms to mechanical [[Promethean Knight]]s, which would allow them to fight the Flood without risking infection. While these new warriors were highly efficient, the continued onslaught of the parasite led the Didact to consider other options to expand his army.<ref name="h4terminals">'''Halo 4''', ''[[Terminal/Halo 4|Terminals]]''</ref>

The Didact traveled to [[Installation 07]], a Halo to which [[Tudejsa|population]] of [[human]]s had been transplanted, and used the Composer to digitize many of them. He considered this to be a just punishment for their past transgressions as a spacefaring species. The humans' minds were then used to create more Promethean Knights to bolster the Didact's forces. The Librarian saw this as an act of genocide and a severe violation of the Mantle, so she incapacitated him through force. She then placed her husband inside a Cryptum at the core of the Prometheans' shield world, [[Requiem]]. The Librarian sealed Requiem and took over the Promethean Knights stationed there,<ref name="h4terminals"/> giving them orders to prevent the Didact from being reawakened. <ref name="h4"/>
