Lekgolo religious beliefs are poorly understood, though it has been noted that their society in itself has little need for religion.{{Ref/Reuse|bestiarum}} While the Lekgolo joined the Covenant for its access to space trade routes and starships,{{Ref/Reuse|bestiarum}} rather than any real dedication to the [[Covenant religion|Great Journey]], at least some hold a concept of an afterlife.<ref name="Halo: The Flood">'''Halo: The Flood''', ''"Chapter ??"'', ''page ?? | Lekgolo religious beliefs are poorly understood, though it has been noted that their society in itself has little need for religion.{{Ref/Reuse|bestiarum}} While the Lekgolo joined the Covenant for its access to space trade routes and starships,{{Ref/Reuse|bestiarum}} rather than any real dedication to the [[Covenant religion|Great Journey]], at least some hold a concept of an afterlife.<ref name="Halo: The Flood">'''Halo: The Flood''', ''"Chapter ??"'', ''page ??"</ref> Many Lekgolo colonies meditate in their spare time, or recite war poetry before or after battle, showing a more refined nature than would be believed of the hulking, savage warriors.{{Ref/Reuse|p190+1}} Mgalekgolo have also shown to possess a concept of honor.{{Ref/Reuse|Halo: The Flood}} The fact that some Mgalekgolo allied themselves with the Sangheili during the Great Schism, while others remained with the original Covenant body,<ref name="Halo 3">'''Halo 3'''</ref> is evidence that individual beliefs play a major part in whatever religion or philosophy the Lekgolo possess. Anything further than this is speculation, as Lekgolo culture is extremely reclusive. Even their fellow Covenant know little about them other than that they continue to follow their own cultural traditions, rather than the homogenized religion of the wider Covenant.{{Ref/Reuse|bestiarum}}<ref name="CovenantPrimer">[http://halo.bungie.net/News/content.aspx?type=topnews&cid=697 '''Bungie.net''': ''The Covenant Primer'']</ref> | ||
