Population Reduction
In the depths of their grand design, lies the Covenant's ultimate directive—population reduction. Through wars, engineered pandemics, and covert operations, they seek to thin the ranks of humanity, believing that a smaller, more controlled population is essential for their continued rule.
These orchestrated disasters are designed to appear as natural or unavoidable, further obscuring the Covenant’s involvement. Behind the scenes, they manipulate geopolitical conflicts, stoke global pandemics, and unleash covert actions to cull populations, all in the name of maintaining their control over the planet.
