===The Great Schism===   
===The Great Schism===   
At the start of the [[Great Schism]] on November 3, 2552, Exquisite Devotion played a crucial role in orchestrating the massacre of the [[Sangheili High Councilor]]s at Delta Halo's [[Control Room (Installation 05)|Control Room]]. At the start of the fighting, he sent a broadcast to the councilors and guardsmen on the ring's surface ordering them to attend a meeting at the Control Room to elect a new Hierarch, in the wake of the [[Prophet of Regret]]'s [[Assassination of the Prophet of Regret|assassination]]. In reality, the order was a ploy to drive the councilors into the hands of [[Avitus]] and his Jiralhanae troops, who proceeded to slaughter the Sangheili.{{Ref/Novel|Halo: Age of Retribution}}
At the start of the [[Great Schism]] on November 3, 2552, Exquisite Devotion captured Sangheili Councilors [[Duru 'Scoahamee]] and [[K'hurk 'Bornisamee]], as well as K'hurk's nephew [[Tilik 'Bornisamee|Tilik]], and held them within the chamber of [[Gravitational Refinement]], part of the [[Trial Court for Tools of Conquest]] on board High Charity. He then sent a Jiralhanae [[Jiralhanae Captain|captain]] and a [[Mgalekgolo]] pair to retrieve Zo Resken from the [[Hanging Gardens]]. Upon arrival at the chamber, Exquisite Devotion had his Jiralhanae disable the weaponry in Reskens chair before showing Resken his captive Sangheili. Knowing of the Prophet of Clarity's allegiance to the Sangheili, Exquisite Devotion revealed the Jiralhanae's recent massacre of the Sangheili High Councilors at Installation 05's [[Control Room (Installation 05)|control room]], including Torg 'Gransamee. He began to brutally torture Duru 'Scoahamee, using controls on his gravity chair to manipulate the gravity on certain parts of the Sangheili's body while demanding that Resken impart information on [[Arbiter]] [[Thel 'Vadamee|Thel 'Vadam]]'s whereabouts and the strength of his [[Covenant separatists|forces]], as well as the location of G'torik 'Klemmee, whose body had not been recovered following the massacre of the Councilors. Resken adamantly denied knowing of 'Vadamee's location, to which Exquisite Devotion proceeded to brutally kill Duru by first crushing his right hand, then his right leg, before slowly crushing his body inch by inch. He then told Resken that if he did not carry out the same torture to the young Tilik 'Bornismaee, then he would personally torture Resken using the same method. When Resken refused to participate in the sadistic torture of the Sangheili, Exquisite Devotion was genuinely surprised, but told his Jiralhanae guards to take Resken out of the chamber while he finished killing the Councilors, remarking that a traitorous San'Shyuum such as Resken might consider his death in the chamber a privilege.{{Ref/Reuse|Id=BCC17}}
 
Aboard High Charity, Exquisite Devotion captured Sangheili Councilors [[Duru 'Scoahamee]] and [[K'hurk 'Bornisamee]], as well as K'hurk's nephew [[Tilik 'Bornisamee|Tilik]], and held them within the chamber of [[Gravitational Refinement]], part of the [[Trial Court for Tools of Conquest]].

Unfortunately for Exquisite Devotion, Resken was soon rescued by G'torik and several other Sangheili. Upon realizing Resken's escape, Exquisite Devotion and his pair of [[Mgalekgolo]] attempted to stop their escape. Exquisite Devotion told the Mgalekgolo to hold fire while he addressed the escapees, telling them that their attacks would be fruitless due to his gravity chair's [[Energy shielding#Covenant energy shielding|energy shielding]]. He told the Sangheili that if they handed over Resken, they would be free to leave. G'torik denied this, telling the Prophet to leave instead or perish along with the Mgalekgolo, before firing a burst from his [[Okarda'phaa-pattern plasma rifle|plasma rifle]] at him. Exquisite Devotion then told the Mgalekgolo to kill all of them. During the ensuing engagement, G'torik managed to destroy several nearby transmutation cubes, obliterating both Mgalekgolo and throwing Exquisite Devotion from his chair. G'torik quickly charged the downed Prophet and used his [[Type-1 Energy Weapon/Sword|energy sword]] to slice Exquisite Devotion into three pieces.{{Ref/Reuse|Id=BCC17}}
