Built as the template for the [[Ur-Didact|Didact]]'s [[shield world]] [[Star-hopping|defensive strategy]], Requiem was constructed long before the [[human-Forerunner wars]] to serve as a fortress world for the [[Warrior-Servant]]s' Promethean class. As with the shield worlds which would follow, Requiem's true capabilities were kept as secret as possible from the other [[rate]]s; although its components were constructed by the [[Builder]]s, the process was compartmentalized in a way that only the Prometheans would be fully informed of its ultimate configuration.<ref name="sil278">'''[[Halo: Silentium]]''', ''pages 278-279''</ref> | Built as the template for the [[Ur-Didact|Didact]]'s [[shield world]] [[Star-hopping|defensive strategy]], Requiem was constructed long before the [[human-Forerunner wars]] to serve as a fortress world for the [[Warrior-Servant]]s' Promethean class.
