{{Quote|Clanksfolk! You have trusted me thus far! I have taken you from one world to another! You must trust me here—we have crossed the Great Torrent! We cannot turn back! I believe we are safe here—the Covenant does not know of this world! It is an uncharted place and they are not likely to find it! If they approach, we will have ample warning. We will survive! We have food, water, air, and most of all, hope! Rejoice with me in this...and remember that true Sangheili are always prepared for self-sacrifice! This is our keep now! Our home! Yes—and it is Sanghelios! Because wherever we go...there also is Sanghelios!|Ussa delivering a speech to the Ussans<ref>'''Halo: Broken Circle''', ''page 49''</ref>}}

As the Sangheili settled on the shield world, they began to call themselves the "[[Ussans]]" as they started to establish their colony and new home, now called the Refuge. In [[850 BCE]], Ussa and Ernicka were approached by [[Salus 'Crolon]] who openly expressed his doubts about Ussa's decision. Ussa dismissed 'Crolon's worries about angering the Forerunners by living on the shield world, and then addressed all Ussans in a speech to give them hope and reminded them that they had crossed the "[[Great Torrent]]".<ref>'''Halo: Broken Circle''', ''pages 47-49''</ref> However, 'Crolon continued to express his doubts about Ussa to other Sangheili, such as [[Tersa 'Gunok]], while away from Ussa, Ernicka, and Sooln.<ref>'''Halo: Broken Circle''', ''page 59''</ref> Later, while Sooln was conversing with Enduring Bias, the monitor revealed the shield world's Disassembler capabilities; the shield world was capable of breaking apart and imitating an explosion, while remaining habitable. Sooln reported her discovery to Ussa, which was promptly backed up by Bias. While the monitor was demonstrating the Disassembler process through [[holography]], he confirmed that there was a 49% chance that the process would lead to the destruction of all organisms on the world.<ref>'''Halo: Broken Circle''', ''pages 68-72''</ref> Although Ussa did not intend for other Sangheili to know about the Disassembler process, Bias carelessly revealed this information to Tersa.<ref>'''Halo: Broken Circle''', ''page 82''</ref>
