During the [[Human-Covenant War]] she helped [[Naxan]], her great-uncle, maintain [[Bekan Keep]]. While Jul was more concerned with what the humans would do, she was more concerned with how the Sangheili would move on from the war, and return to a peaceful society. When her husband dismissed her she grew angry, saying the [[San 'Shyuum]] had made them reliant on other races, and they must now re-learn how to use basic technologies. She expressed how they might be able to find [[Kig-Yar]] traders willing to do business, but doubted if they could use loyal [[Jiralhanae]] to maintain their technology since the [[Huragok]] had fled. Jul ended their conversation and left, saying they would discuss it later. However, Jul soon went missing after he was captured by [[Kilo-Five]] and sent to [[Trevelyan]]. | |||

In an effort to find her husband, Raia left Bekan Keep along with [[Forze 'Mdama]] and confronted [[Avu Med 'Telcam]] about Jul's unknown whereabouts. Upon been told that Jul may have been taken by the [[Thel 'Vadam|Arbiter's]] forces, she demanded 'Telcam to let her onboard the ''[[Unflinching Resolve]]'' and accompany the crew on its assault on [[Vadam]]. During the assault, the ship lost its navigation controls and suffered a direct hit causing it to crash on Vadam's shoreline. Raia survived the crash-landing with the help of [[Dunil]]. Despite the insistence of Forze to return home, she was determined to storm [[Vadam Keep]] with the rebels and search for Jul inside. | |||

Arriving at the [[keep]], they encountered [[Kilo-Five]], who extracted Phillips in the midst of a skirmish. They followed ''[[Tart-Cart]]'' as it was forced to land and make necessary repairs. As Forze conversed with the [[Marines]], Raia attempted to contact 'Telcam to notify him that Kilo-Five would be taking Phillips. Raia soon informed Forze that 'Telcam gave his consent and ordered him to assist Kilo-Five with their repairs. After handing over some pipes and wire, Forze and Raia returned to their Phantom and then made their way back to Vadam. | ||

However they were soon forced to retreat when the {{UNSCShip|Infinity}} destroyed ''Defender of Faith'' and fired a [[MAC]] round at the Abiding Truth's ground forces. Raia was onboard the Covenant frigate, ''[[Cleansing Truth]]'', as it attempted to flee to [[New Llanelli|Laqil]] and was shot down by the Arbiter's cruiser, ''[[Swordsman (ship)|Swordsman]]''.<ref>'''Halo: The Thursday War''', ''page 330''</ref> | ||

She died leaving two sons, [[Dural 'Mdama]] and [[Asum 'Mdama]]. Her son Dural promised to avenge her death and carve her story on their Keep's Saga Wall. Jul 'Mdama, believing that humans were responsible for her death, would eventually form a [[Covenant remnant|new Covenant faction]] in order to exact his vengeance on humanity. | |||
