*Circa '''98,445 BCE''' (approximately a thousand years prior to the firing of the [[Halo Array]]), the [[Forerunner]] [[Promethean]]s, opposed to the construction of the Halo rings, lose their political battle against an extreme faction of the [[Builder]]s led by the [[Master Builder]], [[Faber]], and are forced out of the [[Ecumene Council|Council]]. Many are disgraced or executed while others choose the alternative of exile in a [[Cryptum]]. For the next thousand years, the Council continues to marginalize and diminish the role of the entire [[Warrior-Servant]] rate.<ref name="c238">'''[[Halo: Cryptum]]''', ''pages 238-239''</ref>
