Great Apothtea

The Great Apothtea was an immense blue sea that was formed in a large crater on Janjur Qom, the San'Shyuum homeworld. The sea was connected to the planet's central continent. The region of Zelfiss bordered the sea. After the activation of the Halo Array and the reseeding of life by the Forerunner Lifeworkers, a Forerunner keyship remained dormant on the planet, partly submerged below the surface of the Great Apothtea.

During the San'Shyuum Schism, the Reformists' fabled fortress of Grandiun in the Zelfiss region was undermined by the Stoics and the structure crumbled into the Apothtea. At the end of the civil war, the Reformists boarded the keyship and left behind a massive crater as the dreadnought left the planet. The crater was filled in by the sea.
