The '''Age of Conversion''' is theorized to be the time that the [[Elites|Sangheili's]] and [[Prophet|Prophet's]] began incorporating the other races into the [[Covenant]], either through conquest or religious conversion. | |||
== Background == | |||
During the Age of Conversion, the [[Hunters]] resisted conquest more strongly than the other races which resulted in the creation of an [[Arbiter]] to help [[Taming of the Hunters|“tame”]] them, though the Arbiter was eventually killed. The Hunters defeated the [[Elites]] on the ground but were forced to surrender under threat of extinction through [[glassing]]. It is also possible that the [[Grunts]] were one of the species that was conquered rather than converted. Almost nothing else is known about how the other races became part of the Covenant. | During the Age of Conversion, the [[Hunters]] resisted conquest more strongly than the other races which resulted in the creation of an [[Arbiter]] to help [[Taming of the Hunters|“tame”]] them, though the Arbiter was eventually killed.

As the Covenant would have only picked 'worthy' species, it is likely that these beings would have, at some time in their history, either met the [[Forerunner|Forerunner's]], or evolved on a Forerunner planet. | As the Covenant would have only picked 'worthy' species, it is likely that these beings would have, at some time in their history, either met the [[Forerunner|Forerunner's]], or evolved on a Forerunner planet. | ||
