Kig-Yar: Difference between revisions

Kig-Yar are around the same level as the [[Unggoy]] in the Covenant hierarchy, although the Kig-Yar despised the [[Unggoy]] and believed themselves to be superior. This reached a boiling point in [[2462]], when the growing Unggoy population on ''[[High Charity]]'' put pressure on the Kig-Yar as many of the Kig-Yar were forced to relocate their homes and nests to accommodate the Unggoy. The relocation caused stress for female Kig-Yar that were going through their incubation cycles, and Kig-Yar infant mortality rose on ''High Charity'' and the birth rate declined. To exact their revenge, a radical group of Kig-Yar [[shipmaster]]s poisoned [[infusion]]s—recreational narcotics the Unggoy enjoyed—on ''High Charity'' and on the vessels operated by the Kig-Yar which left many male Unggoy sterile.<ref name="Halo page 150">'''Halo: Contact Harvest''', ''page 150''</ref> Although [[Prophet of Truth|a junior staffer]] in the [[Ministry of Concert]] found evidence of this, the [[High Council]] failed to properly investigate the incident, as they were willing to accept several thousand sterile Unggoy rather than risk upsetting the Kig-Yar. As a result, the offending Kig-Yar were not imprisoned and the guilty shipmasters were simply fined for damages. The lack of attention and the case's results eventually culminated to the [[Unggoy Rebellion]].<ref>'''Halo: Contact Harvest''', ''page 152''</ref> The Unggoy began to attack, not only the Kig-Yar but, all other races in the Covenant. The [[Sangheili]] and Kig-Yar faced difficulty quelling the rebellion, which led to [[Unidentified Arbiter (Unggoy Rebellion)|an Arbiter]] partially [[glassing]] [[Balaho]] to convince the Unggoy to surrender.<ref name="h2a terminal10">'''[[Halo 2: Anniversary]]''', ''[[Terminal (Halo 2: Anniversary)|Terminal 10]]''</ref>
