When [[Prehistoric human civilization|humanity]] first began attacking Forerunner worlds and vessels, Faber (already the Master Builder) attended a meeting of the [[Ecumene Council]] to determine the proper course of action. The Didact proposed a policy of neutralization rather than extermination, intending to defeat the enemy and exile them back to their homeworld, in accordance with the tenets of the [[Mantle]].
