'''Imperial Admiral''' was the highest military [[rank]] in the [[Covenant]] and only attainable by a [[Sangheili]]. It was above the authority of [[Supreme Commander]] and the title held enough power to potentially threaten the influence of even the [[Hierarch]]s.<ref name=" | '''Imperial Admiral''' was the highest military [[rank]] in the [[Covenant]] and only attainable by a [[Sangheili]].

[[Xytan 'Jar Wattinree]] was a legendary Imperial Admiral. Wattinree was so revered among the Sangheili that he was perceived by the [[Hierarchs]] as a threat to their own power. During the [[Great Schism]], Wattinree operated aboard the supercarrier ''[[Sublime Transcendence]]'' stationed at [[Joyous Exultation]]. During the onset of the Great Schism, he addressed the Sangheili military leadership gathered aboard his flagship and promoted [[Voro Nar 'Mantakree]] to the position of [[Fleet Master]]. He planned to use the [[Joyous Exultation Covenant|forces gathered there]] to strike back at the [[Jiralhanae]], though the planet and its [[Malhiem|moon]] were [[NOVA bomb|destroyed]] before this could come to fruition.<ref>'''Halo: Ghosts of Onyx''', ''page 243''</ref> | [[Xytan 'Jar Wattinree]] was a legendary Imperial Admiral.
