Metisette contained the Covenant installation [[The Redoubt|Redoubt]], run by the [[Kig-Yar]] [[Reth]] as a breeding ground for [[Unggoy]]. [[Insurrectionist]]s established a settlement in the planet's asteroids, called [[the Rubble]]. Following the Fall of Madrigal in [[2528]], surviving citizens of the planet fled to Hesiod's Trojan asteroids and became citizens of the Rubble.<ref>'''Halo: The Cole Protocol''', ''page 11''</ref>

==Trivia==
*The name of the planet is likely a reference to the early Greek poet and [[Wikipedia:Rhapsode|Rhapsode]] [[Wikipedia:Hesiod|Hesiod]], whose writings serve as a major source on [[List of Greek mythology references in Halo|Greek Mythology]], farming techniques, archaic Greek astronomy and ancient time-keeping.
*''Halo: The Cole Protocol'' states that Hesiod is the only gas giant in the system.{{Ref/Reuse|cp158}} However, as of [[2014]], at least two gas giants have been discovered orbiting the star.
