The Blockade Runners were first used by the [[Sangheili]] against the [[San'Shyuum]] during the [[War of Beginnings]]. One legendary Blockade Runner, ''[[Joori's Light]]'', succeeded in evading destruction and capture at the hands of the San'Shyuum during the war. When the war came to an end and the [[Covenant]] was established through the [[Writ of Union]], the crew of ''Joori's Light'' refused to join the Covenant and instead escaped to uncharted space.<ref name="canonfodder"/>
