'''Malurok''' ('''''Decided Heart''''' in [[English]]) is a former Covenant planet now jointly-held between the [[Sangheili]] and [[Yanme'e]] that have resided there for centuries.<ref name="wf"/>

Malurok was settled centuries ago by [[Sangheili]] [[kaidon]]s and [[Yanme'e]] [[Yanme'e Queen|hive queen]]s of the [[Covenant.<ref name="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 [[2525]], [[Unggoy]] on Malurok attempted to secede from the Covenant. Later known as the [[Sixteenth Unggoy Disobedience]].<ref name="GEN"/> this rebellion was quashed in a matter of days by a strike force led by [[Ripa 'Moramee]], a Malurok native. 'Moramee demonstrated his ability once more when a [[Kig-Yar]] [[pirate]] prince named [[Krith]] seized some amount of power on the planet only to have his reign ended by him. 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]].<ref name="GEN">''[[Halo Wars: Genesis]]''</ref> He was also due to be executed after one cycle had passed but he was spared this fate by being made an [[Arbiter]].<ref name="GEN"/>

From a cursory examination, Malurok's surface appears inhospitable. It is a harsh world featuring a number of barren atolls.<ref name="wf"/><ref name="evg10"/> Beneath the surface, however, are labyrinthine cities and elaborate halls that house millions in comfort.<ref name="wf"/> Large urban areas and [[keep]]s also exist on the surface.<ref name="GEN"/>

==Government and politics==

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 name="evg10"/><ref name="H4VIS">'''[[Halo 4: The Essential Visual Guide]]''', ''page 29''</ref><ref>'''[[Halo Encyclopedia]]''', ''page 139'' (2011)</ref><ref name="covenant">[https://www.halowaypoint.com/en-us/universe/factions/covenant '''Halo Waypoint''': ''Covenant'']</ref> 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 name="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 name="GEN"/>

==Economy==

Malurok is known as a world characterized by industry.<ref name="wf"/> Following the collapse of the Covenant, [[Malurok Armory]] manufactured [[Type-57 Phantom]]s, as the dropships were sought by both the [[Swords of Sanghelios]] and [[Jul 'Mdama's Covenant]].<ref name="canon fodder">[https://www.halowaypoint.com/en-us/community/blog-posts/canon-fodder-designs-of-the-times '''Halo Waypoint''': ''Canon Fodder - Designs of the Times'']</ref>

==Culture and society==

The kaidons and hive queens on Malurok were proud to the point of insolence when they were still Covenant subjects. In its absence, their ambitions have been unleashed.<ref name="wf"/>

*The name of the colony is similar to that the Yanme'e homeworld of [[Palamok]], reflecting its co-settlement by the species.<ref name="best">'''[[Halo 3]]''', ''[[Bestiarum]]''</ref>
