Madrigal

Madrigal was a UNSC colony world in the 23 Librae system. It was the closest world to Harvest in 2525. The colony was the second world to be glassed by the Covenant following Harvest. The survivors fled to the gas giant of Hesiod, where they settled as refugees into the asteroid belt orbiting it, nicknamed the Rubble.

Trivia

 * Madrigal was a city in Bungie's Myth series, as well in the Siege of Madrigal, a music piece from Myth.


 * Most of Madrigal`s population seemed to be of Latino/Hispanic descent. This may be connected to the fact that the planet is named after localities in Spain on Earth, such as Madrigal de las Altas Torres and Madrigal del Monte, municipalities in Castile and León.


 * Ignatio Delgado and Maria Esquival were evacuated from Nueva Lima, Madrigal immediately before the planet was glassed. They were loaded onto a cargo ship with other children by their parents, who were left behind on the planet when it was glassed.
