The Covenant is governed by the High Council, which is led by the triumvirate of the three [[Hierarchs]] and consists of lesser Prophets, Legates and high ranking Elites. However, near the start of the [[Covenant Civil War]], the Prophets began to replace the Elites with Brutes in various positions in Covenant society, including the job of protecting the Hierarchs and command of the [[Covenant Fleet|Covenant fleets]]. The Prophets of Truth and Mercy used [[Regret]]s assassination at the hands of The [[Demon]] (Master Chief) as an excuse to change the Covenant around. Truth and [[Mercy]] decided that the Elites were unable to protect the 'Prophets and needed to be replaced by the Brutes. The Prophets then secretly ordered the Brutes to instigate a genocide of the Elites and the civil war ultimately began. | The Covenant is governed by the High Council, which is led by the triumvirate of the three [[Hierarchs]] and consists of lesser Prophets, Legates and high ranking Elites.
