By the time of the eruption of civil war around [[Installation 05]], the Prelates and their crews were quick to take initiative, taking the Sangheili fleets stationed around [[High Charity]] off-guard, eliminating the {{Class|CAS|assault carrier}} ''[[Eternal Reward]]'' quickly and intending to focus efforts on ''[[Shadow of Intent]]'', though the outbreak of the [[Flood]] soon switched the tables in the Sangheili's favour. The Sangheili fleet actions and blockade ultimately eliminated many Prelates, and - like the San'Shyuum species as a whole - they became a rare sight following the [[Battle of Installation 05]] and the later fall of the Covenant. By [[2553]], [[Tem'Bhetek]] thought he was the last of the surviving Prelates.{{Ref/Reuse|SOI}}

Another surviving Prelate was [[Dhas Bhasvod]] who helped to secretly organize the launch of the [[San'Shyuum flotilla]] during the [[Fall of High Charity]], using the launch of the ''[[Anodyne Spirit]]'' as a distraction. Bhasvod and [[Covenant loyalists|his forces]] were left behind on the Forerunner [[keyship]] during the [[Battle of Installation 00]] and survived the firing of [[Installation 08]] thanks to the keyship's protection. Bhasvod and his troops would remain undetected for nearly seven years by the various factions that would occupy and fight over the Ark.{{Ref/Reuse|DW}}

Tem'Bhetek was able to survive the [[Fall of High Charity]], having met the Minister of Preparation in the station's docking spires and subsequently escorted the Minister to safety. Over the subsequent months, [[Tem'Bhetek's faction]] of allied Jiralhanae hatched a plot to capture ''Shadow of Intent'' and use it to transport a [[Prototype Halo installation]] to [[Sanghelios]], with the intention of wiping out the Sangheili species permanently. Ultimately, Tem was captured by [[Rtas 'Vadum]] during the [[Ambush at Duraan]], where he eventually came to realize that the Minister had deceived him and joined Rtas' forces for the [[Battle of the Prototype Halo installation]], ultimately sacrificing himself.{{Ref/Reuse|SOI}}

In [[2559#October|October 2559]], Prelate [[Dhas Bhasvod]] and his faction of surviving [[Covenant loyalists]] on [[Installation 00|the Ark]] allied themselves with the [[Keepers of the One Freedom]] and the Forerunner [[archeon-class ancilla]] [[Intrepid Eye]] in an effort to fire the [[Halo Array]], but they were opposed by both forces from the [[Banished]] and the {{UNSCShip|Spirit of Fire}}. The mission ended in a failure with the alliance between the two [[Covenant remnants]] dissolving before the ''Spirit of Fire'' destroyed the [[Epsilon Clarion]] installation and Intrepid Eye with an [[orbital bombardment]] of [[EMP]] [[MAC]] rounds. Undaunted by his defeat, Bhasvod killed [[Mark-G313]] and departed to link up with his remaining forces.{{Ref/Novel|Id=DW|DW}}
