Why did the Elite Honor Guards got to be replaced by the Brute Honor Guards?

somewhere in the heavens...they are waiting. I love the Marathon Trilogy.
Halo CE will always be the best game in the Halo franchise. What a perfect game.

Quite simply IMO, the Prophets were fools.

It's probably explained in the books but the Heretic business probably frightened the Prophets enough to hire the Brute thugs.

In a system based on lies, when you get close to the core of the lies, you need underlings dumb enough to not spot those lies.

If memory serves, when the MC manages to kill Regret the Prophets make the "change of hats" because Elites were not able to keep a Prophet from being killed. I guess when you sit in those chairs, being a lazy ass just ordering others to do your bidding, you forget how bad ass the MC is!

The Hierarchs declared Regret's death to be the Elites' failure, and they were removed as the protectors of the Prophets, who bestow the role to the Brutes, causing more tension between the Brutes and Elites who are already at odds with each other.
