Template:City

Gladsheim was a city on the planet of Harvest.[1] The city had a Main Street running down its center, and to the east of the street all buildings were JOTUN repair shops and farm-supply warehouses. The buildings were arranged on a grid of wide asphalt streets that stretched out into the Plains of Ida.[2] The tallest structure in Gladsheim was its water tower, which was supported by a large polycrete pillar.[3]

Gladsheim was the second city on Harvest to be attacked by the Covenant during the First Battle of Harvest. Thousands of civilians, including Wallace A. Jenkins' entire family, died in the attack. However, at least one person is known to have survived.

Trivia

In Norse mythology, Gladsheim is a realm of Asgard where Odin's hall, Valhalla, is located.
