Battle of Rahnelo

The Battle of Rahnelo (tentative) was a skirmish during the Great Schism.

Background
During the 9th Age of Reclamation the Covenant military was slowly reformed to give the Jiralhanae more powers, leading to them controlling entire fleets. In late 2552, political tensions flared over the replacing of the Honor Guard with Jiralhanae troops. This directly led to the Great Schism, where the disillusioned Sangheili were declared to be in rebellion, granting the Jiralhanae justification to wipe out the species.

Despite the death of the last Hierarch, the High Prophet of Truth, in December 2553, the civil war continued onwards with various disorganised factions attacking one another.

Battle
The San'Shyuum Minister of Preparation, Boru'a'Neem, led a force of Jiralhanae and Yanme'e to the planet, where they killed much of the civilian population before leaving.

Rtas 'Vadum, shipmaster of the Shadow of Intent arrived two days after the battle to investigate, finding that the colony's Kaidon, Tulum 'Juranai, was dead and its new leader to be a child from the same Keep, and another child leading the military.
