diact, a military rank or forerunner

My cousin and me having a debate he thinks the diact is
A forerunner. I thought the Diact was a military rank in the forerunner society. Like the arbiter for the elites.

The Didact got the name Didact from his time in military college. So his real name is a mystery.

It was given to him in school. His rank is Promeathean.

This belongs in the Halo Universe forums.

It’s sort of like a given name, not his rank. Didact means teacher or something in greek. It relates to his time at the college.

and his classmates gave it to him as well and yes the Didact is indeed a forerunner

Does anyone have anything more on the Primordium statement about the Bornstellar Didact revelation found on Onyx?
