So what if they're enemies with the Elites... in the third book, when Cortana intruduces the Brutes for the first time, she says that according to translation, they are the Holy Guardians. Well, who would they guard if not the Prophets? And if you go to Bungie's page of Covenant Hierchy (did i spell that right) it says something about how Elites and Prophets live uneasily due to the fact that Elites believe that the gods should be honored through fighting.
