| | '''Promesa''' is a city on [[Andesia]], home to a large, prominent research center and a major shopping destination. It is the home of the [[Galleria Andinos]], advertised as "the number one shopping destination in the quadrant". The area was established shortly after the [[Unified Earth Government]] colonized the planet, funded by biotech associations looking to exploit the Andesia's rich ecosystem for life-extending pharmaceuticals and exotic foodstuffs. Following the [[Human-Covenant War]], turf wars between [[Insurrectionist]] factions and their criminal allies, corrupt [[law enforcement]] personnel, and UEG peacekeepers ensured there would be no peace on the streets of Promesa.<ref name="canonfodder">[https://www.halowaypoint.com/en-us/community/blog-posts/canon-fodder-shadow-of-intense '''Halo Waypoint''': ''Canon Fodder - Shadow of Intense'']</ref> |
