Prophets are guarded by a rank of Elite only known as the Imperial Guard. They are the best of the best in the entire Covenant army.
Btutes are rarely seen near Prophets, let alone allowed to guard them the fact that the Brute, Tatarus was even allowed to speak to a Prophet caused discomfort amoung the Elites guarding him.
All this is clearly stated in First Strike pg 339
Anything else you hear is utterly wrong.
I know nothing about the books. I do know that I am positive I read about brutes being guards in an article or update, not on the forum. Books are not always 100% accurate with whatever inspired them.
