As of [[2524]], the aging Prophet's tenure had been marked with scandal involving his sexual exploits, notable the impregnation of a young female [[San 'Shyuum]] while lying about his status and then refusing to abort the offspring. To cover the scandal, he attempted to convince the then-[[High Prophet of Regret|Vice Minister of Tranquility]] to claim the offspring as his own. The Minister responded by offering to keep the scandal quiet only if Restraint stepped down from the [[High Council]]. The Vice Minister then succeeded him, and became the [[High Prophet of Regret]]<ref>[[Halo: Contact Harvest]], page 266</ref>. Like most of the other High Prophets, his name has some irony to it; he stepped down as a result of high sexual exploits, showing a lack of restraint. | As of [[2524]], the aging Prophet's tenure had been marked with scandal involving his sexual exploits, notable the impregnation of a young female [[San 'Shyuum]] while lying about his status and then refusing to abort the offspring.
