May the Great Journey await you, may your enemies writhe in hell, and your line continued forward, and gain honor...

May your scattered body go, beyond the limits of your mind...

Beyond the limits of our worlds

To the places our ancestors dream and sang of

And the Prophets speak of.[1]

The Sangheili Death Benediction is a War Poem that Sangheili warriors would cite if one of their allies has done something dishonorable.

A notable example is Jora 'Konaree, who hurled himself at a group of Kig-yar furing a battle. Doing so, he became crippled and imprisoned. He decided that the most honorable way to die and the only way to restore his family's linage was to kill himself.
