Following the [[Great Schism]], 'Telram remained loyal to 'Volir and served as an [[Sangheili Honor Guardsman|Honor Guard]] in his crew as they fought against the Covenant.

==Biography==
===Covenant War===
Val 'Telram served in the [[Covenant fleet]] aboard the {{Class|CAS|assault carrier}} ''[[Enduring Conviction]]'', under the command of Sangheili [[Shipmaster]] [[Let 'Volir]] during the [[Human-Covenant War]].{{Ref/Reuse|The Blinded}} Following the [[Great Schism]], a major civil conflict between forces loyal to the [[Covenant]] against the ousted Sangheili, 'Telram remained loyal to 'Volir{{Ref/Reuse|The Blinded}} and continued to serve as an [[Sangheili Honor Guardsman|Honor Guard]] aboard the ''Enduring Conviction''{{Ref/Reuse|The Blinded}} as part of a larger Sangheili fleet.<ref name="Rise of Atriox III">'''[[Halo Wars 2]]''', ''[[Phoenix Logs]]'' – "Rise of Atriox III"</ref>

===Serving the Banished===
{{Quote|My ability to communicate with the Huragoks, the sign language and the patience requiered to learn it, quickly isolated me from my own kind. While my brothers fought in battle, I was to work with the Huragoks to secure resources and unlock ancient technology.|'Telram about his role on the Banished.{{Ref/Reuse|Floats Low}}}}
Some time before [[2553#May|May 6, 2553]], 'Volir broke away from the Sangheili fleet{{Ref/Reuse|Rise of Atriox III}} and he and his crew, including 'Telram, pledged their loyalty to the [[Jiralhanae]] warlord [[Atriox]] and his [[Covenant remnant|splinter faction]] known as the [[Banished]].<ref>'''[[Halo Wars 2]]''', campaign level, ''[[The Signal]]''</ref>

On [[2558#November|November 25, 2558]],<ref name="The Graveyard">'''[[Halo Wars 2]]''', ''[[Phoenix Logs]]'' – "The Graveyard"</ref> the Banished arrived at [[Forerunner]] [[Installation 00]], also known as "the Ark," and proceeded to raid the [[United Nations Space Command]] research outposts on the surface.{{Ref/Reuse|The Graveyard}}

Over the next few months, the Banished established their presence across the Ark. During this time, 'Telram was separated from the rest of the ''Enduring Conviction's'' crew because of his fluency on translating [[Huragok]] sign language, and was forcibly assigned to working with other Huragoks to secure resources and unlock Forerunner technology.<ref name="Floats Low">'''[[Halo Wars 2]]''', ''[[Phoenix Logs]]'' – "Floats Low But Steady"</ref>

====Encounter with the ''Spirit of Fire''====
{{Quote|The Jiralhanae look with disgust as I work with Floats Low as they fear what they do not understand, but they cannot hide their awe at the results. The Ship seems to grow and rebuild itself from the very launch system, a spear to drive deep into the heart of our enemies.|'Telram about the ''Despair''-class fighter and his dreams of vengeance.{{Ref/Reuse|Floats Low}}}}
On [[2559|March 28, 2559]], the {{UNSCShip|Spirit of Fire}} arrived by [[slipspace portal]] at the Ark and [[Second Ark Conflict|battle]] soon broke out between the two groups. 

On April 2559, 'Telram was overseeing a group of Huragok when he watched helplessly via hologram the destruction of the ''Enduring Conviction'' by the Ark's [[Aggressor Sentinel]]s. The destruction of the ship he called home angered him greatly.{{Ref/Reuse|Floats Low}}

One month later, 'Telram was assigned to a operation led by the mysterious [[Mgalekgolo]] known as [[Colony]] to seek out Forerunner weapons, and they managed to find a [[design seed]] of a Forerunner {{Class|Despair|fighter}}. 'Telram was assigned to watch over and communicate with one of Colony's Huragok named [[Floats Low But Steady]]. Within the span of a day, 'Telram watched Floats Low 'talk' to the ship and the launching systems that hold it, but he wasn't able to translate some of the words Floats Low said.{{Ref/Reuse|Floats Low}}
