The [[Covenant]] (later [[Covenant Loyalist]]) religion, given no specific name, is a polytheistic religion that centers around the belief that godhood is a state attainable by mortals and that the [[Forerunner]] attained such a state through activation of the [[Halo]], which sent them on their [[Great Journey]] to salvation. Originating as the belief system of the [[San'Shyuum]], it was eventually adopted and, to an extent, modified by the various races that would later join the Covenant, with the most devoted new members being the Sangheili and the Jiralhanae. It would continue even after the end of the Covenant as the Sangheili faith, although modified by recent revelations concerning the true purpose of the Halo Array. | The [[Covenant]] (later [[Covenant Loyalist]]) religion, given no specific name, is a polytheistic religion that centers around the belief that godhood is a state attainable by mortals and that the [[Forerunner]] attained such a state through activation of the [[Halo]], which sent them on their [[Great Journey]] to salvation.
