By the 26th century, liar's dice was still known and played by the surviving colonists of [[Madrigal]] and by the residents that inhabited the [[asteroid]] settlement called [[the Rubble]]. As a direct result of cultural exposure, the [[Kig-Yar]] population living alongside the humans of the Rubble learned about the game, which found growing popularity among many groups of their species. In the ensuing decades following the Rubble's destruction, the game continued to be played by Kig-Yar and became known as "''rwr'u a'uamr'ep''" within [[Covenant]] circles, which translates directly as "cube gambit" in the [[Sangheili (language)|Sangheili tongue]].{{Ref/Site|Id=CF156|URL=https://www.halowaypoint.com/news/canon-fodder-fleetcom-fiction|Site=Halo Waypoint|Page=Canon Fodder - Fleetcom Fiction|D=14|M=08|Y=2024|LocalArchive=Armory Infinitum#Pinpoint Needler}} | By the 26th century, liar's dice was still known and played by the surviving colonists of [[Madrigal]] and by the residents that inhabited the [[asteroid]] settlement called [[the Rubble]].

[[Shipmistress]] [[Writh Kul]], a [[Ruuht|Ruuhtian]] [[skirmisher]] and [[Banished]] mercenary, was one such Kig-Yar who knew how to play it. In [[2558]], she played a hand of liar's dice against [[Vrak'is]], an older [[Ibie'sh|Ibie' | [[Shipmistress]] [[Writh Kul]], a [[Ruuht|Ruuhtian]] [[skirmisher]] and [[Banished]] mercenary, was one such Kig-Yar who knew how to play it. In [[2558]], she played a hand of liar's dice against [[Vrak'is]], an older [[Ibie'sh|Ibie'shian]] Kig-Yar and former pirate queen, for the chance to win her prized [[keepsake|heirloom]] weapon, a modified and pinpoint-accurate [[Posu'gelka-pattern needler|needler]]. Although Writh Kul was unable to deceive to old pirate queen and lost, Vrak'is nonetheless still gave her the [[Pinpoint Needler|pinpoint needler]], informing Writh Kul that there was no more fight left for her and that the weapon would be of better use in her hands, especially given her good relationship with the Banished.{{Ref/Reuse|CF156}} | ||
