The Genesis of the Covenant
SkyL

From the Forerunner's derivation of the sacred rings, bloodshed betided upon an emulation of races. One race was spiritual and devout, anxious to rule and discover. The other race, vain and expedient to learn and conquer.

The Elites, and tyrannical race, yearning to ascertain verity and plight.

And the Prophets, pious and deviating after the same lust for power.

The two oppose and a war blunders as an ordained discovery is espoused in a pact…

The Covenant is formed…

A barbarous and heartening bond is formed, Elites, Prophets, cofounders of the Covenant and the bungle and fidelity are imbedded into ages and ages of deception…

Nine ordained, compilations, amassing, prognosticate, contriving, entrapping, embracing, traditional, and impertinent ages are forged into the Covenant as hallowed bliss into a beyond that was divine with exhilaration.

The Covenant is a polytheistic aggregation of races, all searching for a journey to walk. Forcefully or willingly these other races were subservient and noble to be facilitating the bond.

Grunts creature's diminutive with doltish repartee. Impetuous with a force so powerful and bursting…

Jackals a race so consonant and divergent than their cofounders, magnified senses to the bulk yet they were blind in fault…

Drones workers and cadre laborers, insectoid with witty instincts…

Hunters a true ferocious snare, receptacles and convulsions equitable intimidating but so fulgurated and concurred to embrace the pact or deception…

Brutes uncivil and treacherous, they seize their bloodlust like ferrous bolts of an alliance so immense in eras...

Elites the conquerors and successors of the Covenant, sightless with ambition, eager for contentious tactics, and are vises of the military...

And Prophets, the guides of the Great Journey and the interrupters and corrupters of the Covenant…

Pacts, agreements, ceaseless bliss…
All destroyed, but spent…

At the extent of a Hierarch a civil war ruptures the Covenant…

The truth is finally revealed, the reality is modest. From the simple pact of the Covenant and the bond built from the first age, and exceeded for more ages there was an oversight of rivalry and corruption.

Brutes and Elites…

Fighting for the safekeeping of the Hierarchs…

After a sheer nonsuccess in protecting the Prophet, the cofounders take a radical step…

It was abundantly clear that the Elites have failed to protect the Prophets and in their wrongdoing had suffered the civil rage of their rivals.

The Covenant still lives…

The juggernaut of menacing, conniving, and biased creatures was split into two factions…

The Loyalists, the few races allegiant to their Covenant.

And the Heretics, the few who unwilling to sacrifice their Lord's resoluteness for a bond…

The Loyalists, the Jackals, Drones, Brutes, and Prophets were amenable to wage war on both enemies, the two armies, Humanity and the Heretics, as the Covenant they were incapable of failing…

The Heretics, the Grunts, Hunters, and Prophets were resisting the Covenant and united themselves with the equally formidable Humans. With limited resources and nothing but faith for enlightenment they are bent on stopping their bliss…

That is the start and the end of the Covenant…

However the war is not over…

But a new one is just beginning…
