- "Once it was a strong fortress for the Covenant, a source of great nobility and power. And before that, it was home to our sea-faring forefathers, the boldest of our people."
- — A claviger to Vul 'Soran.[3]
Feldokra, also called Faithful Perseverance by the San'Shyuum, is an ocean-moon colony inhabited by Sangheili.[1]
Overview[edit]
Environmental features[edit]
Feldokra was an ocean moon, with small island atolls dotting its vast seascape. The seas around the Forerunner Lonespire were kept at bay by a pelasar field, which formed a massive circular cavity in the water that was visible from orbit, and neutralized all advanced technology that entered.[3]
Locations[edit]
Ecology[edit]
Some of the moon's islands were populated with dense foliage, including trees, and it was home to Olfmeri "sky leviathans". Vul 'Soran, born on the moon, utilized traditional curveblades carved from tusked dubonark ocean serpents, which may have also been native to the world.[3]
Known Residents[edit]
- Batar 'Soranu - Kaidon and a founding member of the Sacristan Order.
- Sesa 'Refumee - Former Covenant soldier and the leader of the Heretics at the Threshold gas mine.
- Ghe 'Talot - A powerful Kaidon and ally to the Swords of Sanghelios.
- Vul 'Soran - Blademaster that was once in the Swords of Sanghelios, but defected to the Order of Restoration.
History[edit]
Ancient history[edit]
Feldokra was once part of the Forerunner ecumene. They would leave behind numerous artifacts on the moon.[1][3]
Post-Great Purification[edit]
Feldokra was colonised by the great sea clans of the Sangheili's past, led by stalwart kaidons who built their homes atop the waters.[1] These early Sangheili colonists would discover the Lonspire and take pilgrimages to it, and believed that Forerunner writing in it was holy scripture of transcendence.[3]
During the War of Beginnings, Batar 'Soranu of Feldokra would attempt to try and broker an alliance between the Sangheili and the San'Shyuum.[3]
Covenant era[edit]
The Covenant eventually developed enormous structures across the world's surface; military citadels that would serve the highest echelon of military personnel, second only to the towers of High Charity itself. During construction, the investigations of the San'Shyuum revealed what the Sangheili had not; countless Forerunner fuel stores and power complexes lay deep below in the dark ocean trenches.[1]
The Great Schism hit the moon hard.[3]
Postwar[edit]
- "And yet these days our world is treated like little more than the carcass of a dead mother, pillaged by those it gave life to until there is nothing left. All I see now are marauders and thieves, those looking to pillage the little meat that remains on the bones of this dying world."
- — A claviger comparing Feldokra to an olfmeri.[3]
Later, Feldokra was again ravaged but during the Blooding Years.[4][3]
Dovo Nesto held a citadel on the world and maintained it for years after the Great Schism, while it still had power reserves. Severan, met with him there in 2557. After that point, the power reserves at the citadel had been used up resulting in Nesto fleeing. Scavengers would also attack the moon.[2]
In the August of 2559, Vul 'Soran traveled to Feldokra and discovered the history of his family at the Lonespire. This would lead to him joining the Order of Restoration.[3]
Government[edit]
Defenses[edit]
Across the state Ghe 'Talot lived in were dozens of Covenant armories.[4]
