The Future Of the Covenant

I’m just curious as to what will happen to our arch nemesis now that the hierarchy has been destroyed will all the various races completely split and return to their home worlds? I’m especially curious as to what will happen to the lower caste (grunts, jackals, skirmishers ect.) And what will our relationship as humans be to them? I’m sure that our feelings are still a little sore over the whole extermination of human kind thing they had going on. Plus what about the brutes? They still were the odd man out at the end of 3. So many loose ends so little time. Please discuss :wink:

The Elites are still at war with the Brutes, while I believe that remainder of the Prophets are in hiding. Engineers are more equipment than anything, so I’d say they’re still around.

I posted this same thread on bnet and this is one of the answers givin that I like

Brutes: Screwed. First their civil war, now this.
Grunts: Back to their fart world.
Drones: Eggs and crap.
Jackals: Space privateering.
Hunters: God knows what they do.
Engineers: Being a nonexistant threat to the rings.
Skirmishers: Bro-ing up with the Jackals.

what the guy above me said.

Actually, the Brutes are doing quite well against the Elites due to it being the Prophets that knew how to build their ships. And as far as I know, after Reach the Skirmisher numbers are next to none. Agree on the Jackals though.

The Prophets vanished, if memory serves. I doubt the Brutes have any better idea how to fix their stuff than the Elites do, unless they have all the Engineers.
