During the [[Human-Covenant War]], the young [[Tartarus]] climbed to power and had begun to gain authority throughout the entire Rh'tol skein. Catching the eye of the [[High Prophet of Truth]], Tartarus would work with the [[Hierarch]] throughout the war as Truth intended to replace the [[Sangheili]] with the Jiralhanae.
