The Covenant had strategically settled Jiralhanae populations on resource-rich worlds as a planetary garrison force to protect the worlds from potential raids. While the Jiralhanae continued to inhabit these worlds after the dissolution of the Covenant, they were unable to mine or utilize the resources because of their own lack of sufficient technology. With the Covenant's supply chains gone, the Jiralhanae quickly found their supplies near depletion. This was one of the primary reasons for their raids on Sangheili colonies after the war; despite quite literally living on top of plentiful resources, the Jiralhanae were entirely dependent on the already processed supplies of other races due to their technological backwardness. However, the Jiralhanae could not sustain themselves via raiding alone in the long term and their supplies began to wear thin, leading to an impending species-wide famine in [[2558]] and an increase in Jiralhanae attacks across Sangheili worlds as a result. During this crisis, the [[Jiralhanae Chieftain]] [[Lydus]] was willing to initiate peace talks with the Arbiter and the UNSC. However, the negotiations were interrupted by Covenant mercenaries,<ref name="escalation1">'''Halo: Escalation''', ''Issue #1''</ref> hired by the [[New Colonial Alliance]].<ref>'''Halo: Escalation''', ''Issue #5''</ref> | The Covenant had strategically settled Jiralhanae populations on resource-rich worlds as a planetary garrison force to protect the worlds from potential raids.
