ONI's aid allowed the Servants of the Abiding Truth to amass enough weapons to begin an [[Sangheili civil war|all-out insurrection]] against 'Vadam and his allies in early 2553. 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 faction|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. | ONI's aid allowed the Servants of the Abiding Truth to amass enough weapons to begin an [[Sangheili civil war|all-out insurrection]] against 'Vadam and his allies in early 2553.

In spite of ONI's underhanded mission, relations between humanity and Sangheili at large continued to be amicable. For example, the UNSC and the Sangheili under the Arbiter maintained mixed control over certain space territories, known as [[Joint Occupation Zone]]s. The UNSC Navy and the Sangheili also participated in joint naval operations, including one against [[Piracy|pirates]] in [[2557]].<ref name="catalog15">[https://forums.halowaypoint.com/yaf_postsm2969315_Catalog-Interaction.aspx#post2969315 '''Halo Waypoint''': ''Catalog Interaction'' (post 2969315)]</ref> Human and Sangheili scholars also gathered and studied the Covenant's records together on Sanghelios.<ref>[https://forums.halowaypoint.com/yaf_postsm2969317_Catalog-Interaction.aspx#post2969317 '''Halo Waypoint''': ''Catalog Interaction'' (post 2969317)]</ref> Collaborative weapons research and exchanges in military intelligence between the two species is also known to have taken place.<ref>[https://forums.halowaypoint.com/yaf_postsm2969311_Catalog-Interaction.aspx#post2969311 '''Halo Waypoint''': ''Catalog Interaction'' (post 2969311)]</ref> | In spite of ONI's underhanded mission, relations between humanity and Sangheili at large continued to be amicable.
