After the war ended in [[852 BCE]], the [[Covenant]] was formed as the Sangheili and San'Shyuum united under the [[Writ of Union]]. Ernicka and Ussa both opposed the Covenant, believing that the Sangheili were surrendering themselves to the San'Shyuum. In [[851 BCE]], Ussa warned the citizens of [[Xellus keep]] to not trust the Covenant or the San'Shyuum. When some Xellus residents did not share Ussa's sentiments, they reported his heresy to the Covenant authorities and a squadron of fighters was sent to the state of [[Xellus]]. As the fighters attacked the state, killed numerous residents, and destroyed Xellus keep, Ussa led the survivors to the region of [[Nwari]] at [[Sanghelios]]' southern pole with Ernicka.<ref>'''Halo: Broken Circle''', ''page 37''</ref> While Ussa and his mate, [[Sooln 'Xellus|Sooln]], traveled to [[Creck]] to recruit more followers, Ernicka remained in charge of the Sangheili at Nwari.<ref>'''Halo: Broken Circle''', ''page 27''</ref> Upon Ussa's return, Ernicka informed him that Covenant assassins were closing in on the group's position and there was likely a spy among their group.

On the shield world, now referred to as the Refuge, Ernicka helped Ussa govern the Sangheili followers. At some point in [[850 BCE]], [[Salus 'Crolon]] approached Ernicka and Ussa and questioned the use of [[Forerunner]] artifacts, believing them to be potentially dangerous and an affront to the gods. Although Ernicka believed that 'Crolon was being treasonous for questioning Ussa, the latter reminded Ernicka that 'Crolon may simply be an annoying individual.<ref>'''Halo: Broken Circle''', ''page 46''</ref> While the Sangheili continued to set up their new colony, Ernicka supervised and ensured that everyone remained on task.<ref>'''Halo: Broken Circle''', ''page 60''</ref> Later, Ernicka was repairing burnblades with [[Tersa 'Gunok]], 'Crolon, and two other Sangheili. Tersa became infatuated with [[Lnur 'Mol]], but as 'Crolon continued to mock the young Sangheili, Tersa challenged him to a burnblade duel. Ernicka ordered Tersa to get back to work, though the Scar-Maker was impressed by his courage to some degree.<ref name="bc117">'''Halo: Broken Circle''', ''page 117''</ref> When Tersa and Lnur overheard 'Crolon and [['Drem]] attempt to convince other Sangheili to rebel against Ussa, the former pair was spotted and 'Drem gave chase. Ultimately, they escaped and 'Crolon and 'Drem told Ussa that Tersa and Lnur were planning to rebel against him. Ernicka met Tersa and Lnur at the [[Hall of Feasts]] and arrested them. Bringing them to the [[Strategy Hall]], they were put on trial. When Tersa revealed that 'Crolon and 'Drem were attempting to convince [[Gmezza]] and [[Scorinn]] to defect, Ernicka sent guardsmen to retrieve the two Sangheili.<ref>'''Halo: Broken Circle''', ''page 137''</ref> When it became clear that 'Crolon and 'Drem were in fact plotting against Ussa, the [[kaidon]] ordered for Ernicka to arrest them. 'Drem attempted to escape the hall, but Ernicka incapacitated him by throwing his burnblade into 'Drem's spine. Ussa had Ernicka finish off 'Drem, and the Scar-Maker decapitated the traitor.
