When the [[Great Schism]] occurred, the [[Covenant]] was divided in two. The majority of the [[San'Shyuum]] and [[Jiralhanae]] remained loyal to the [[Truth's fleet|Covenant]] while, the [[Sangheili]] led the [[Fleet of Retribution|forces]] | When the [[Great Schism]] occurred, the [[Covenant]] was divided in two. The majority of the [[San'Shyuum]] and [[Jiralhanae]] remained loyal to the [[Truth's fleet|Covenant]] while, the [[Sangheili]] led the [[Fleet of Retribution|forces]] abandoning the empire. As a San'Shyuum, [[Prelate]] [[Tem'Bhetek]] found himself on the side of the Covenant, led by the [[High Prophet of Truth]]. During the [[Fall of High Charity|battle of High Charity]], Tem's family was killed by the [[Flood]] invasion,<ref>''Halo: Fractures'' - ''Halo: Shadow of Intent'' - Page 167 - "'They're gone, Prelate! the Minster shouted after him. 'There is nothing you can do!'"</ref> and blamed their death on the Sangheili's interference. [[Minister (title)|Minister]] [[Boru'a'Neem]] promised he would help Tem avenge his family's death if they escaped together. After their escape, they went into hiding as the Covenant was defeated at the hands of the Sangheili and [[UNSC]] forces. Following the war's end, Tem and Boru created a new faction. | ||
This new faction employed species who were on the losing side of the Covenant civil war, and was predominantly composed of Jiralhanae. Aware of the truth about the [[Halo Array]], 'Bhetek and a'Neem forsook the [[Covenant religion]] entirely, though many of their Jiralhanae subordinates continued to cling onto their beliefs in the "Great Journey" despite the two San'Shyuum publicly proclaiming the concept as false.<ref name="religion"/> | This new faction employed species who were on the losing side of the Covenant civil war, and was predominantly composed of Jiralhanae.
