Teash

Teash, along with Warial and Soirapt, was one of the three natural satellites orbiting Doisac, the former-Jiralhanae homeworld and the third planet in the Oth Sonin system.

Topgraphy and ecology
Teash is home to crimson ogre-wolves, which prowl the moon's outlying wastes. The Qabik region is home to crimson forests.

History
In early Jiralhanae history, their loosely held religion was based on the lunar cycles of Teash and the other two moons, as they perpetually haunted Doisac's skyline.

Teash was the most prominent and prosperous of all the Doisacian moons by a significant margin. The moon was historically home to brothels and raider lairs of the Jiralhanae, with multiple clans staking a strong claim on the moon's soil especially in the wake of the collapse of the Covenant empire. A few groups of dishonored Sangheili refugees had unexpectedly chosen Teash as a location to flee from their civil war and found work as mercenaries for the Banished. The Banished overall acted as a stabilising force on Teash, coning to dominate much of the local politics and preventing the moon from falling into bloody civil war as was the case on Warial.

The stability offered on Teash allowed the moon to become home to numerous clan workshops and war-forges including the Crucibles of Dovotaa. The Forge of Teash operated by the Banished on Installation 07 was named after the moon, as was the Sorrow of Teash specialsed Brute plasma rifle. For a time, Teash's industrial output rivalled that of Doisac itself, allowing the moon to become a key part of the Jiralhanae economy.

Teash was heavily damaged during the Razing of Oth Sonin, though networks of anti-air artillery installed by the local clans for defence against raiders did allow much of the debris from Doisac's destruction to be shot down before impacting Teash. This allowed thousands of spacecraft to successfully evacuate the moon, with their survivors relocating to colonies on Gathved, Ordun Dal, and Savadok. Teash itself was physically devasted in Cortana's genocide, with only isolated redoubts remaining on the barren surface, while scavenger ships continue to pick at the remains of the once-vibrant colony.

Government and society
The moon is home to the city of Zomar, a major power base for the Bulwark of Bone.

Economy
The Crucibles of Dovotaa was based on Teash. The original designs for the Marauder series of vehicles were acquired by Atriox from a scavenger on Teash, and were used as the basis for the Eklon War-Forges' take on the vehicle.
