The High Prophets (Truth, Regret, Mercy) at this point had decided that Brutes were better than Elites, and started to replace Elites with Brutes in major positions. The Honor Guard change occurs shortly after the events of Halo 3: ODST, but the Brutes being sent into New Mombasa is the first act by the Prophets to rid the Covenant of Elites. Basically, New Mombasa was the first act by Truth to put himself on the way to becoming a God, which would happen when he led the Covenant. He felt that the Elites had done nothing to kill the humans in this long war, so he found it the right time to give Brutes power. He had always planned to be the leader of the Covenant, the sole leader, and by letting the Elites, a race that he knew was not trustworthy, guard the Prophet of Regret and Delta Halo, he was able to kill Regret (indirectly). Also, he had "parked" High Charity close enough to Halo so that Flood could get there, and once again, by letting Elites guard Delta Halo, that ensured that the Flood could get to High Charity, and on his way out, he makes sure that Mercy is taken. This is also why he tells Tarturas to not save him. Also, he knew that the Brutes were not witty enough to know when being used, so he perfectly uses them to try and stop the humans. The Elites by this time had begun to figure out that their leaders were lying, useless scum. It started with the Heretics led by Sesa 'Refumee, and it quickly spread to most Sangheili, Thel Vadamee and Rtas' Vadam being 2 more early Elites to see. The Brutes had blind faith, and would follow Truth for anything.
