- "Once the great fraud 'Mdama's sins are exposed, his own armies will rise against him and all will join as one."
- — Sali 'Nyon after seceding from Jul 'Mdama's faction.[2]
This Covenant faction is a splinter group formed from members of Jul 'Mdama's Covenant faction who believe Sali 'Nyon to be the true "Hand of the Didact".[2] They became disillusioned with 'Mdama after his destruction of Requiem, which they considered the holiest site, and his subsequent alliance with a human, Doctor Halsey. When the UNSC sent a Pelican and Broadsword to the surface of Aktis IV, the faction shot down the ships and scavenged them to find the UNSC's piece of the Janus Key.
