These [[Sangheili]] became disillusioned with [[Jul 'Mdama]] after [[Requiem Campaign|his destruction]] of [[Requiem]], which they considered the holiest site, and his subsequent alliance with a [[human]], Doctor [[Catherine Halsey]]. [[Zealot]] [[Sali 'Nyon]] started preaching that he was the true "Hand of the Didact", whereas 'Mdama was a false prophet due to his actions. 'Mdama had heard of 'Nyon's views, but he chose to dismiss the dissident as "''a delusional pig possessed by demons''". However 'Nyon managed to attract followers who in turn began recruiting others into their cause.{{Ref/Reuse|HE14}} | |||
After arriving on [[Aktis IV]], 'Mdama's forces discovered the circle of [[Treason|traitors]] and a fight ensued. Some of 'Nyon's followers were killed while others escaped, but a traitor was captured and brought before 'Mdama. Rather than ask for pardon, he chose to maintain his sect's views and accused 'Mdama of heresy. The latter executed him with his energy sword. Meanwhile, 'Nyon's group seceded from the rest of Jul 'Mdama's Covenant forces. When the [[UNSC]] sent a [[D79 Pelican|Pelican]] and [[F-41 Broadsword|Broadsword]] to the surface of Aktis IV, the rogue faction, led by Sali 'Nyon himself, shot down the ships and scavenged them to retrieve the UNSC's piece of the [[Janus Key]]. This action prompted the rest of 'Mdama's Covenant to abandon their leader's original plan and also attack the UNSC. Meanwhile, 'Mdama swore to humiliate and eliminate the traitors.{{Ref/Reuse|HE14}} While 'Mdama and his [[Promethean]] forces began to eliminate the traitors, 'Nyon broadcasted a message across Jul's entire fleet to incite them to join him in rebellion.{{Ref/Comic|Id=HE15|HEsc|Issue=15}} | After arriving on [[Aktis IV]], 'Mdama's forces discovered the circle of [[Treason|traitors]] and a fight ensued.

After the death of 'Mdama on [[Kamchatka]], 'Nyon emerged as the clear frontrunner for leader of religious Covenant remnants. Some [[Sangheili]], even one in the [[Swords of Sanghelios]], viewed him as a true leader compared to the Arbiter and Jul, and the next best chance for a Covenant revival.{{Ref/Level|H5G|Alliance}} | After the death of 'Mdama on [[Kamchatka]], 'Nyon emerged as the clear frontrunner for leader of religious Covenant remnants.
