The Ministry of Anticipatory Security was a short-lived ministerial body of the Covenant. The Ministry was charged with anticipating possible security matters on High Charity before they became a threat.[1] The Ministry was automatically informed when a San'Shyuum consulted the High Charity medical interface about pregnancy.[2]
History
In 850 BCE, the Ministry was established by the Hierarchs and the title of its Minister was given to San'Shyuum R'Noh Custo.[1] The Prophet of Inner Conviction believed that the Ministry was created particularly by the High Prophet of Excellent Redolence to allow him to remove individuals that threatened his power and title by claiming that individual was a danger to High Charity.[3] Shortly after the Ministry's foundation, the Minister of Anticipatory Security threatened to use his new-found influence against the Prophet of Inner Conviction unless he led a mission to Janjur Qom, the San'Shyuum homeworld, to retrieve several willing female San'Shyuum to help lower inbreeding rates on High Charity and to retrieve a Forerunner Luminary.[4] Reluctantly, Inner Conviction agreed and departed for the homeworld shortly after. However, one of the members of the expeditionary team, Captain Vervum L'kosur, was an operative of the Ministry of Anticipatory Security. Following the Minister's orders, Vervum attempted to execute Inner Conviction as the Ministry anticipated that the Prophet would "inevitably become a security problem",[5] but Vervum was ultimately killed by Stoic warriors on the planet.[6] Despite the betrayal, the Prophet of Inner Conviction was partly successful in the mission and returned to High Charity with the females, but without the Luminary due to its destruction.[7]
Upon his return to High Charity, the Prophet of Inner Conviction and the Minister of Anticipatory Security were both brought before the Hierarchs. After the testimonies of Mken and the Sangheili expedition members, the Hierarchs were informed that an agent of the Ministry—Vervum—attempted to assassinate Inner Conviction. The intervention of Qurlom, a former Hierarch and friend of Mken, convinced the Hierarchs that the Ministry and its Minister were to blame for the destruction of the Luminary. The Hierarchs agreed to dissolve the Ministry and punish the Minister for allowing his personal dislike of Inner Conviction to prevent him from completing the Ministry's agenda.[8]
