Office of the Arbiter

Thel is going to be around for some time, there’s no doubt about that. But what I’m interested in is his position as Arbiter. Arbiters, as we know, were the will of the Prophets and performed suicidal missions for them in the name of the Covenant. Mercy claimed the position of Arbiter kept the Covenant from completely collapsing over the centuries. Now that the Snagheili are very much independent, what will become of the position of the Arbiter?

All theories are welcome.

The original arbiter Was a person of great influence, kind of like a Shogun of Japan. Along time ago when the covenant first join with elites the Arbiter of this time Disobeyed The Prophets, and because of this died fighting And elite who was the prophets tool so they changed the Arbiter status to Something of shame and death, Which is wear we find are selves. i would assume the they regain the original status of the Arbiter.
