The High Prophet of Regret is dead, and the news reverberates through Covenant ranks with a mix of reverence, sadness, and disbelief. [[Honor Guard]]sman [[Onsu 'Valonro]] has repeated this grim announcement multiple times. The Prophet of Truth has ordered the cleansing of Regret's temple by the ''[[Solemn Penance]]'', an act considered heretical by many. The [[Sangheili]], once the Covenant's honored guardians, now face the disgrace of being blamed for Regret's assassination, leading to a significant shift in power dynamics as the Jiralhanae are favored over them.
The High Prophet of Regret is dead, and the news reverberates through Covenant ranks with a mix of reverence, sadness, and disbelief.

The [[Sangheili]], once the Covenant's honored guardians, now face the disgrace of being blamed for Regret's assassination, leading to a significant shift in power dynamics as the Jiralhanae are favored over them.


14 Sangheili, including 'Valonro and High Councilor [[Raas 'Yajadai]], gather at a cliff edge near [[Installation 05]]'s chamber of consecration to pay their respects. 'Yajadai urges them to reflect on the [[Psalm of Sorrow]], a prayer that helps them cope with their grief. Surrounded by the sacred Forerunner architecture and the serene beauty of the landscape, they momentarily find solace in their shared mourning. However, the atmosphere is tense as they discuss the need for a new hierarch to replace Regret, with concerns about Truth's reformist tendencies and the potential loss of Sangheili influence within the Covenant.

The Councilor receives a transmission from the [[Prophet of Exquisite Devotion]], a high-ranking San’Shyuum: They must gather to appoint a new hierarch at the chamber of consecration, and 'Yajadai leads the group towards the Forerunner door. However, when the door opens, they are met with the imposing figure of Jiralhanae leader [[Avitus]], who arrives with his own entourage. Tension escalates as 'Yajadai refuses to be escorted by the Jiralhanae, asserting their right to proceed without their presence. The confrontation becomes violent when the Jiralhanae open fire, killing two Sangheili instantly and throwing the situation into chaos.

In the ensuing battle, 'Valonro fights valiantly, but the Jiralhanae's tactics prove effective. The honor guard engages Avitus directly, but the Councilor is captured amidst the chaos, leaving the remaining Sangheili to fend for themselves. As the Jiralhanae press their attack, 'Valonro is overwhelmed by a wounded Jiralhanae, who drags him toward the edge of a cliff. In a desperate struggle, both tumble over the side, leaving the remaining Sangheili to face the Jiralhanae alone.
