''[[Halo: The Essential Visual Guide]]'' page 100 mentions the existence of a hypothetical [[Kig-Yar]] Zealot | ''[[Halo: The Essential Visual Guide]]'' page 100 mentions the existence of a hypothetical [[Kig-Yar]] Zealot rank - something which is at odds with the way the Kig-Yar have been presented in all other sources before and since- there are currently no known Kig-Yar Zealots mentioned in the canon. This misconception originates with the character of [[Zhar (Kig-Yar)|Zhar]] from the book ''[[Halo: Contact Harvest]]'', who was once thought to be a Zealot, but this was based on a misreading of an insult directed toward [[Dadab]], an [[Unggoy]] [[Deacon]]. This original misconception was later reproduced on Halopedia, and ultimately made its way into this sourcebook. Given the title has no basis in canon except for this original misconception, and has not been indicated to exist since with books such as the ''[[Halo Encyclopedia (2022 edition)]]'' only reinforcing the title of Zealot as one of exclusively Sangheili usage. | ||
