SCHOLAR, SOLDIER, HERETIC... SAVIOUR.
At first, the life of a warrior in the Covenant army seems a noble one. But are the motives behind the war with the humans as innocent as the Sangheili, Sorran, believes? An act of heresy unveils a conspiracy spanning thousands of years, which could bring about the total ruin of the Covenant.

**** ***** ***** ****** *****
[b]Prologue[/b]
[i]Edict of the Most High Prophet of Truth, 9th Age of Reclamation.[/i]
By the authority of the noble Prophets of Truth, Regret, and Mercy.
Henceforth, any and all battle worthy Sangheili are to be transferred from any idle posts in High Charity and/or upon any Covenant held world/ship into the active combat. Those amongst the excused are the Honour Guard, the Councillors, and the mentally ill, physically unfit, and the old. Female Sangheili are, as always, prohibited from taking part in any military action.
Any Sangheili engaged in a guard post, other than the Honour Guard, will be replaced by the Jiralhanae until such a time as the High Council deems otherwise. Any Jiralhanae in question of where they now stand shall direct all enquiries to Tartarus, Chieftain of the Jirahanae.
Failure to adhere to this edict will result in death. No exceptions. These are trying times, my brothers. The Human infidels persist in resisting the might of the Covenant. Rest assured, this 'war' as some are calling it, will be over soon -- to be forgotten and dismissed as an insignificant event in Covenant history.

I read the entire story up till now, and now I want to see the rest. I'm so impatient.

[quote][b]Posted by:[/b] Wolverfrog You're assuming the Spartan knew everything we do. He didn't.[/quote]Atleast he knew something about the covies religion and reasons for the war. That should have been enough.

[quote][b]Posted by:[/b] Wolverfrog [quote]Why the Spartan didn't let Zharn go, so he could tell other covies about humans making FR walls glow.[/quote] It's war. Why would the Spartan let a high-ranking fleetmaster, one he has a personal grudge against might I add, go?[/quote]Well, then this fleetmaster isn't (yet?) one of the best. He's just some random dude that won ( =P ) a fight. It would good for humans if some Covies begin to doubt the reasons for the war.

The Spartan was male, that was specified.[/quote]But Wolver put him in that position... =P And that's part of the thing. Why the Spartan didn't let Zharn go, so he could tell other covies about humans making FR walls glow. And the Spartan was male, ok. I just started wondering 'cause he was called "Spartan" or "Demon" all the time (also in earlier stuff, checked some stuff there.). I guess I just missed/forgot the part where it was stated.

[quote][b]Posted by:[/b] SangheiliProphet Just got back from the hospital. I nearly died from my brain not being able to take the amount of sheer awesome that is Part 34 of this fanfic. The family being killed was a very unexpected twist. I also didn't think Ahkrin would actually kill Restraint either. I can't wait to see what happens next. This chapter was fantastic. I may die of awesome, but keep 'em coming![/quote] Just got back? I'm still sitting in the ER because of this sheer awesomeness. Well done, I can imagine what Ahkrin will feel when he figures out just what lying scumbags the three Prophets are, or what a reception Sorran will give him when he figures out what his lost friend has done... I better hear on the news when this story is finished that it is being published.

I commend you, sir. That was really well done.[/quote]Thank you very much. [quote][b]Posted by:[/b] Wolverfrog I'm... speechless. Really, that's amazing. I can't believe you've taken the time to do that! You actually managed to make the first chapter sound good despite me writing it terribly. :P It was pretty surreal listening to that, and absolutely awesome. Thanks so much.[/quote] I'm very glad that you enjoyed it. I'm an audio production and voiceover hobbyist, and I have a soft spot for Sangheili fiction, so I thought I'd put the two together. Who knows, if you don't mind me doing so, I might shell out another some time. :D

You're lucky I can read averagely fast, otherwise I would've been reading this all night. Bloody hell. This is mind-boggling.

Wow it ends there. That is really stupid. I hope the next chapter comes out soon.
