:Actually, they mention it in [[Halo: Contact Harvest]]. | |||
:It turned out that one of the foundations of their religion was based upon a misinterpretation of a certain Forerunner glyph. Using a device called a [[Luminary]], they had come across a planet that was apparently LITTERED with Forerunner artifacts, to a degree that they had never before encountered. They reported back to [[High Charity]] where the local Oracle (now known to be none other than a surviving fragment of [[Mendicant Bias]] was consulted as to the significance of the finding. While this was going on, 2 or 3 high ranking San 'Shyuum plotted to use the existence of these artifacts to stage a regime change within the government, with themselves at its head. When questioned about the artifacts, Mendicant Bias explained that their interpretation of the symbol (ie: Reclamation) was wrong, & should have been read as [[Reclaimer]]. The revelation that Humanity was meant to inherit all that the Forerunners left behind (indeed that they might, themselves, BE Forerunner) would have invalidated the very core of the Covenant religion & simultaneously destroyed the very basis of these ambitious San 'Shyuum Ministers' political power. Taking advantage of the internal chaos within the San 'Shyuum Hierarchy, caused by this revelation, the 3 of them successfully launched their coup, installed themselves as the High Prophets (Regret, Truth & Mercy) and waged a war of genocide against Humanity in order to keep the truth buried. - [[User:DJenser|DJenser]] ([[User talk:DJenser|talk]]) 15:19, 1 May 2013 (EDT) | |||
