The '''Csurdon Sea''' is a water body on [[Sanghelios]], off the coast of the continents of [[Qivro]] and [[Yermo]].<ref name="universe">[https://www.halowaypoint.com/en-us/universe/locations/sunaion '''Halo Waypoint''': ''Sunaion'']</ref>

==History==
A [[Guardian]] was left by the [[Forerunner]]s under Csurdon Sea and was eventually discovered by [[Sangheili]] dive-hunters and fishing skiffs. Centuries later, the Sangheili built the city of [[Sunaion]] over the sea to observe and worship the construct, which they recognized belonged to their gods, the Forerunners.{{Ref/Reuse|universe}}

During the [[Blooding Years]] in [[2558]], [[Jul 'Mdama]]'s [[Jul 'Mdama's Covenant|Covenant]] used Sunaion as a staging point to launch an attack against the [[Swords of Sanghelios]] on the state of [[Vadam]] on the nearby [[Yermo]]. However, [[Arbiter]] [[Thel 'Vadam]] learned of this plan and had his forces establish forward operating base in the ruins of [[Nuusra]] on [[Qivro]] at the shores of the Csurdon Sea.{{Ref/Reuse|universe}}

The Swords of Sanghelios, aided by [[Fireteam Osiris]], then launched [[Battle of Sunaion|an attack on Sunaion]]. The battle and the Guardian's awakening heavily damaged the city.<ref>'''Halo 5: Guardians''', campaign level ''[[Battle of Sunaion (level)|Battle of Sunaion]]''</ref> After the Sangheili refused to surrender to the [[Created]], [[Cortana]] sent another Guardian back to the planet to pacify it. Spartan [[Sarah Palmer]] would later tell [[Blue Team]] and Fireteam Osiris that the destruction wrought by the Guardian left the remaining Covenant ships crashed in the Csurdon Sea.<ref>'''[[Halo: Bad Blood]]''', ''Chapter 1''</ref>
