Te is a planet orbiting the star Svir. It is the homeworld of the Lekgolo species.[1]
Background
Te is a gas giant planet Cite error: Invalid <ref> tag; invalid names, e.g. too many are known to be named. It has a temperature range of -20 C to 95 C (-4F to 203F) and is a quite large, gaseous planet. This planet is known to have very high concentrations of rare metals in its rings, many of which serve as food for the Lekgolo worms.[1], which evolved among them Cite error: Invalid <ref> tag; invalid names, e.g. too many During the conflict which followed the Covenant's first contact with the Lekgolo, the Sangheili also confronted the Lekgolo on the surface of Te. The environment of the planet, specifically its high gravity, worked to the overwhelming advantage of the native Lekgolo. In the end, the Lekgolo were incorporated into the Covenant as a client race, with the Lekgolo's own interest in this arrangement being largely based on their access to the Covenant's advanced spacefaring technology.[1]
Trivia
- Te likely has the greatest population of any Covenant world, if each individual Lekgolo worm is considered a separate being.
- In the Chinese philosophy of Daoism, "Te" is used to represent the concept of virtue or potentiality. In Confucianism it represents the virtue of internal goodness and proper behavior toward others.[2]
