Qikost is one of the two massive natural satellites of Sanghelios, along with Suban. Qikost is silver in color and slightly larger than Earth's moon.[1] The large size of both Qikost and Suban had great effects of the tides on Sanghelios.[2] The vast wilderness of Qikost is home to several Sangheili hunting preserves. Sangheili frontiersmen once used early prototypes of the Type-48 Revenant to traverse these preserves.[3]
Early in the Covenant's history, Qikost produced Sangheili swords of the highest quality, including burnblades.[4] Partly functioning Forerunner ancillas were also brought to several armories on Qikost for studying purposes.[5] Throughout the Human-Covenant War, a group of Sangheili merchants lived on Qikost and engineered weapons for the Covenant arsenal, and continued to do so for post-war factions.[6]
