Thel 'Vadam: Difference between revisions

In March 2553, the Arbiter greeted Phillips in Vadam. Phillips requested a tour of Sanghelios' most ancient cities to which Thel approved and assigned Phillips an escort, [[Cadan 'Ilmir]].<ref>'''Halo: Glasslands''', ''page 425''</ref>  Not long after, they lost Phillips in [[Ontom]] after dissident Jiralhanae detonated an explosive in the state. In the wake of this uprising, 'Telcam and the [[Servants of the Abiding Truth]] launched their attack on the state of Vadam. 'Vadam was later contacted by Lord Hood who informed him that he could recover Phillips and quell the rebellion. 'Vadam was doubtful of his offer but graciously accepted his help.<ref>'''Halo: The Thursday War''', ''pages 236-238''</ref> Despite 'Telcam's ship having been shot down early in the battle, the situation on Sanghelios intensified as reinforcements from like-minded [[keep]]s arrived to attack Vadam keep. Lord Hood arrived on Sanghelios onboard humanity's most powerful ship, the {{UNSCShip|Infinity}}. The Arbiter was caught off guard and as his own reinforcements failed to arrive on time, he reluctantly accepted the UNSC's help in fending off the attackers. ''Infinity'' decimated the rebel forces while the {{UNSCShip|Port Stanley}} posed as a Kig-Yar pirate ship and covertly destroyed some of 'Vadam's ships, leaving the Arbiter with a Pyrrhic victory. After the battle, Thel 'Vadam was in talks to visit the UNSC ''Infinity''.<ref>'''Halo: The Thursday War''', ''page 405''</ref>

In [[2555]] UNSC contacted 'Vadam after discovering that the [[Halo array]] had been set to fire in three weeks. The countdown had been initiated from the Ark, and they needed help in re-activating the [[portal|Portal at Voi]] at [[Voi]] in order to dispatch a team there to disable the activation sequence. 'Vadam sent [[Usze 'Taham]] and [[N'tho 'Sraom]], along with other Sangheili and a [[Huragok]] to aide the humans.<ref>'''Halo: Hunters in the Dark''', ''pages 59-66''</ref>
