Days before the rebellion, the [[Librarian]] had briefly visited [[Janjur Qom]] to collect specimens to protect them from the impending [[Flood]] attack. This visit sparked unrest among the San 'Shyuum, who correctly surmised that the Librarian's visit could only mean that their lives were in jeopardy. | Days before the rebellion, the [[The Librarian|Librarian]] had briefly visited [[Janjur Qom]] to collect specimens to protect them from the impending [[The Flood|Flood]] attack.

The San 'Shyuum soon began a full rebellion, using a cache of hidden weapons and ships to make war on the Forerunners. A Forerunner fleet was permitted entry into the [[Quarantine Shield]] with full functionality and power, soon overwhelming the San 'Shyuum defenses and taking control of the planet. A [[Halo Array|Halo ring]] was then unexpectedly brought in by [[Mendicant Bias]] and used, presumably, to sterilize the planet. | The San 'Shyuum soon began a full rebellion, using a cache of hidden weapons and ships to make war on the Forerunners.
