===The Didact===

After disabling two control nodes, it becomes clear to John that a great threat had once been imprisoned within Requiem. The [[Ur-Didact|Didact]], the Forerunners' greatest warrior, is released from suspended animation within a [[Cryptum]]. Easily disabling John with his powerful abilities, he declares the return of the Forerunners as the galaxy's rulers and saviors. Humanity remains weak and unworthy in his eyes of inheriting the [[Mantle|Mantle of Responsibility]], a view rejected by his wife, the [[Librarian]]. Having always revered the Forerunners as gods,Jul 'Mdama's Covenant quickly swears alliance to the Didact and his Prometheans. The Didact views Jul's Covenant as mere "primitives", but permits them to serve his cause, to prevent the ascension of the human race to galactic prominence.
