ONI's aid allowed the Servants of the Abiding Truth to amass enough weapons to begin an [[Blooding Years|all-out insurrection]] against 'Vadam and his allies in early 2553, which was part of the [[Post-Covenant War conflicts|larger galactic war]]. Meanwhile, however, ONI's efforts also backfired; partially as a result of their actions the Sangheili [[Jul 'Mdama]] began a personal quest against humanity, forming a Sangheili-led [[Jul 'Mdama's Covenant|reconstituted Covenant]] mainly from ex-Covenant forces. Four years after the battle at the Ark, this group launched an invasion on the [[Forerunner]] [[shield world]] [[Requiem]], intending to find and awaken the [[Ur-Didact|Didact]], a Forerunner [[Promethean]] they revered as a living god.
