Biography

Pelahsar was born as the son of Mhelaat 'Orlam, the First Kaidon who spoke for all of Sanghelios. 'Orlam was the first to advocate for the reverse-engineering of Forerunner techonology, though the initial violent resistance ended with his assassination.[1]

As the War of Beginnings raged on for decades, the technological superiority of the San'Shyuum's Dreadnought spurred the Sangheili race to utilize Forerunner technology to defend their worlds. As a result of the Sangheili's augmented defenses, the conflict reached a point of stalemate and eventually left both sides open to compromise. In 852 BCE, Pelahsar the Strident brokered a "tentative truce" with the Reformist San'Shyuum leader Breaking Shadow. Both leaders forgave the past crimes of their species and began working to form a harmonious alliance, one that would soon be established by the Writ of Union and become known as the Covenant.[2]
