Forerunner-Flood War

~97,745 BCE - 97,445 BCE

Judgement of the Didact

~97,445 BCE

The behavior of the Ur-Didact following his encounter with a Gravemind and return to the Forerunner civilization became more erratic and harder for the IsoDidact and Librarian to cope with as the Forerunner-Flood War continued.

MODERN HISTORY

After the firing of the Halo Array, Requiem functioned as the home of the Ur-Didact, who remained locked in stasis inside his cryptum until his accidental release by John-117 during the Battle of Requiem. Once out, the Ur-Didact left Requiem, leaving the shield world to the only remaining faction on Requiem, Jul 'Mdama's Covenant. 'Mdama and his loyalists remained on Requiem, looking for access to Forerunner technology until the return of the UNSC Infinity in 2558, starting the Requiem Campaign. During this time, the crew of the Infinity battled 'Mdama's forces on Requiem for control, resulting in Requiem being sent hurtling into the host star Epoloch.
