For most of the Covenant's history, this rank was held by the Sangheili race until the [[Great Schism]], when the [[Jiralhanae]] assumed most of the Covenant's higher ranks. | For most of the Covenant's history, this rank was held by the Sangheili race until the [[Great Schism]], when the [[Jiralhanae]] assumed most of the Covenant's higher ranks. | ||
