So.. Where the hell are the elites in odst? In halo 2 they were there... they couldnt have all vanished and been replaced with brutes as soon as cheif left for delta halo.. O.o

im confused. Clarification please. And sorry if im mistaken, i haven't read the books in 3 years and odst doesnt seem to have anything to do with the books.

Feels like bungie winged this one.

The betrayal of the Elites by the Prophets and the Brutes took place right around when the Prophet of Truths ship jumped from New Mombasa. The order to kill all the Elites traveled through the Covenant, so you have to imagine it like a wave going through the galaxy. In regards to the Elites you find dead as Buck in ODST, as soon as the Prophet of Truth left, the Brutes simply killed the Elites. Whether they knew of orders beforehand, or they just killed them due to their race's bad blood. In the book 'The Cole Protocol', Captain Jacob Keyes is barely a Lieutenant, and there is already betrayal and backstabbing between the Brutes and Elites. Hope that helps.
