Remember that through Halo 2 Anniversary terminals, you knew the story of all the races, or at least how they were integrated to the covenant. The elites, whom became the loyal servants of the hierarchs after decades of war. The hunters, they destroyed a sacred artifact and an arbiter was needed to dominate the worms. Finally the grunts, they were brought by force and because of their rivalry with the Jackals, a riot started and their force almost destroyed the covenant. After all this I’m asking: What about the brutes and jackals, were they conquered or convinced by faith?
You could YouTube it. Halo follower might have lore on them

Don’t trust halofollower…go to halopedia.org if u want info on there introduction into the covenant
Interesting question, must be in the terminals of H2
All I know is that the Jackals were in the Covenant to profit off their stuff. I mean, they’re a race of space pirates, what else are they gonna do? No idea on the Brutes, though. I’d guess by religion based on how much more zealous they were in Halo 2 and 3.

No, I unlocked them all and none of them said anything about that

I didn’t know that Jackals were space pirates, that might explain one or two things about their rivalry with the uggoy (grunts).
Eww, Halo Follower…
From Halopedia:
> At first, the Covenant arrived in the Kig-Yar home system] with small contingent fleets. These fleets were directly attacked by ruthless Kig-Yar pirates and mercenaries, leading to a long naval war in the system. Despite the sheer strength and numbers of the Covenant, the Kig-Yar used the Y’Deio system to their advantage. It was difficult for the larger Covenant ships to maneuver through Y’Deio’s abnormally dense asteroid belt compared to the Kig-Yar’s smaller vessels, while Kig-Yar forces could use the asteroids for hiding. The war between the Covenant and Kig-Yar forces culminated in sieges of redoubts on the asteroids surrounding their world. Eventually, realizing the unlikelihood of them winning the war and the opportunity to profit from the expansion of trade, they accepted Letters of Marque: commissions from the Ministry of Tranquility to engage in the services of the Covenant, though often this was merely used as an excuse to continue their plundering lifestyle. The Kig-Yar would spend much of their time preying on the ships of the Covenant’s enemies, such as humanity.
> Despite their savagery, Jiralhanae proved intelligent enough to achieve Tier 4 status. However, their warlike nature inevitably led them into conflict, and eventually the various Jiralhanae master-packs—belonging into either of the Jiralhanae’s two main social divisions (the Rh’tol and Vheiloth skeins) fell into a massive war known as the First Immolation. This mechanized war of attrition lasted a decade and eventually led to the use of nuclear weapons that devastated Doisac. The First Immolation and the nuclear -Yoink!- that followed nearly led to species self-extinction and caused the collapse of Jiralhanae society; by the time the Covenant discovered them in 2492 CE, the species had just rediscovered radio and rocketry. Although some Jiralhanae were quick to join the Covenant, such as those led by Chieftain Maccabeus, others put up resistance against the invading alien hegemony. In their primitive state they were quickly defeated and absorbed into the Covenant. The Jiralhanae’s search for theological meaning led to the species’ swift incorporation into the Covenant as they adopted the empire’s religion and began worshiping the Forerunners.

Thanks

Interesting, I was wondering why they haven’t even thought of a Halo game about the “Origins of the Covenant.” They already did with humans (Halo Reach) why not thinking in their counter part, the Covenant.
the Story about the grunts is very interesting

Reach isn’t really about the origins of humanity though. If there were a game about the UNSC’s origin, it would go all the way back to around the 22nd century.

And the closest to that we have is halo wars.

Yeah, and that’s still early 26th century.

The brutes remind me of humans having civil wars and destroying their own planet

Cool idea. You could play as an elite trying to resist the covenant’s attempts to conquer you.
