By [[855 BCE]], Pervading Stone's refusal to pursue peace with the Sangheili led to Breaking Shadow initiating a violent coup, ending with Stone's assassination.{{Ref/Reuse|Enc22P191}}{{Ref/Reuse|Enc22P258}} Acting as the Reformists' new leader, Breaking Shadow began working toward peace with the Sangheili. In [[852 BCE]], he sent an unarmed delegation to their enemies to recount what had happened over the last several years. Breaking Shadow and [[First Kaidon]] [[Pelahsar the Strident]] forged a tenuous alliance, forgiving the other species for their past crimes. This was soon formalized in the [[Writ of Union]], the founding document of the [[Covenant]].{{Ref/Reuse|Enc22P191}} It is unknown if the Keepers of the Dawn dissolved following these events, or if this governing body simply took on a new form. | By [[855 BCE]], Pervading Stone's refusal to pursue peace with the Sangheili led to Breaking Shadow initiating a violent coup, ending with Stone's assassination.{{Ref/Reuse|Enc22P191}}{{Ref/Reuse|Enc22P258}} Acting as the Reformists' new leader, Breaking Shadow began working toward peace with the Sangheili.
