'''Malurok''' ('''Decided Heart''' in [[English]]) is a former [[Covenant]] [[planet]], jointly-held between the [[Sangheili]] and [[Yanme'e]] populations that have resided there for centuries.{{Ref/Reuse|wf}}
==Overview==
===Topography and ecology===
From a cursory examination, Malurok's surface appears inhospitable. It is a harsh world featuring a number of barren atolls.{{Ref/Reuse|wf}}{{Ref/Reuse|evg10}} Beneath the surface, however, are labyrinthine cities and elaborate halls that house millions in comfort.{{Ref/Reuse|wf}} Large urban areas and [[keep]]s also exist on the surface.{{Ref/Reuse|GEN}} A significant portion of Malurok is covered by water and a species of aquatic ray-like creature brought by [[Sangheili]] to multiple worlds can be found swimming in it.{{Ref/Reuse|canon fodder}}
====Locations====
*[[Moram|State of Moram]]
*[[Weeping Shadows of Sorrow]]
===Known residents===
*[[Chak 'Lok]] - Sangheili [[Sangheili Warlord|Warlord]] of the [[Banished]]
*[[Parg Vol]] - Sangheili [[terrorism|terrorist]]{{Ref/Reuse|H4VIS}}
*[[Ripa 'Moramee]] - [[Arbiter]]
==History==
===Covenant era===
Malurok was settled in the early years of the Covenant{{Ref/Book|Id=enc22pg233|Enc22|Page=233}} by [[Sangheili]] [[kaidon]]s and [[Yanme'e]] [[Yanme'e Queen|hive queen]]s.{{Ref/Reuse|wf}}
Since then, these two groups have managed their own affairs though the empire did make use of the [[Sangheili colonies|colony]]. Many [[cycle]]s prior to [[2531]], a [[Kig-Yar]] [[pirate]] prince named [[Krith]] seized some amount of power on Malurok only to have his reign ended by strike force commanded by [[Ripa 'Moramee]], a native of the planet. Shortly following the defeat of Krith, 'Moramee attempted a coup against his own kaidon in the state of [[Moram]]. He failed to murder the leadership of the [[clan]] and for this he was tried and imprisoned at [[Weeping Shadows of Sorrow]]. He was also due to be executed after one cycle had passed but he was spared this fate by being made an [[Arbiter]].{{Ref/Comic|Id=GEN|[[Halo Wars: Genesis]]}}
===Post-war===
After the Covenant [[Great Schism|tore itself apart]] in late [[2552]], Malurok's governing entities finally were free to be truly independent polities.{{Ref/Reuse|wf}} However, the planet did briefly enter a [[Blooding Years|period of civil conflict]].{{Ref/Reuse|enc22pg233}}
During the [[Created uprising]], the Created enforced a peace that would result in a detente between the warring factions.{{Ref/Reuse|enc22pg233}}
==Government and society==
{{Quote|Guilty! For your heinous crimes, we sentence you to a cycle in the Weeping Shadows of Sorrow--after which we will ''slowly'' extinguish your pathetic existence.|A judge sentences Ripa 'Moramee.}}
[[File:HINF Concept SangheliosMalurok.png|thumb|right|300px|A city on Malurok.{{Ref/Reuse|enc22pg233}}]]
Malurok is governed by independent Sangheili kaidons and Yanme'e hive queens. Before the undoing of the Covenant it was considered one of its primary worlds.{{Ref/Reuse|evg10}}{{Ref/Book|Id=H4VIS|H4EVG|Page=29}}{{Ref/Book|Enc11|Page=139}}{{Ref/Site|Id=covenant|D=01|M=6|Y=2020|URL=https://www.halowaypoint.com/en-us/universe/factions/covenant|Site=Halo Waypoint|Section=Universe, Factions|Page=Covenant|LocalArchive=https://archives.halopedia.org/waypoint/www.halowaypoint.com/en-us/universe/factions/covenant.html}}  The [[hierarch]]s used Malurok to gather, train, and equip legions of troops as well as fleets of ships. In addition, the world was home to a good number of fortresses which still remain standing, which caused it to be recognized as a military base itself. The bureaucrats on ''[[High Charity]]'' were never able to find fault with the quality or quantity of the planet's tithes despite the independent sentiments expressed by its leaders.{{Ref/Reuse|wf}} Sangheili that were found guilty by a court of committing heinous crimes could be sentenced to imprisonment and execution through extended and punitive means.{{Ref/Reuse|GEN}}
===Economy===
Malurok is known as a world characterized by industry.{{Ref/Reuse|wf}} Following the collapse of the Covenant, [[Malurok Armory]] manufactured {{Pattern|Mikpramu|Phantom}}s, as the dropships were sought by both the [[Swords of Sanghelios]] and [[Jul 'Mdama's Covenant]].{{Ref/Site|Id=canon fodder|D=01|M=6|Y=2020|URL=https://www.halowaypoint.com/en-us/news/canon-fodder-designs-of-the-times|Site=Halo Waypoint|Section=News, Canon Fodder|Page=Designs of the Times|LocalArchive=https://archives.halopedia.org/waypoint/www.halowaypoint.com/en-us/news/canon-fodder-designs-of-the-times.html}}
===Culture===
Though first settled by Sangheili and Yanme'e, eventually at least two other species, [[Kig-Yar]] and [[Unggoy]], resided on Malurok while the Covenant was in control.{{Ref/Reuse|GEN}} The kaidons and hive queens on the planet were proud to the point of insolence when they were still Covenant subjects. In its absence, their ambitions have been unleashed.{{Ref/Reuse|wf}}


==Trivia==
*The name of the colony is similar to that of the Yanme'e homeworld, [[Palamok]], reflecting its co-settlement by the species.{{Ref/Game|H3|[[Bestiarum]]}}
*Malurok may be home to the [[Vassal Workshops of Clan Makan and Clan Vol]], given that Parg Vol was born there.
