Teash, along with Warial and Soirapt, is one of the three natural satellites orbiting Doisac, the Jiralhanae homeworld and the third planet in the Oth Sonin system.[2]
In early Jiralhanae history, their loosely held religion was based on the lunar cycles of Teash and the other two moons, as they perpetually haunted Doisac's skyline.[3]
Along with Warial, Teash is home to Jiralhanae settlements. Brothels and raider lairs of the Jiralhanae are present on the moon.[4] The moon is home to the city of Zomar, a major power base for the Bulwark of Bone.[5] The plasma rifle variant Sorrow of Teash is named after the moon. A few groups of dishonored Sangheili refugees had unexpectedly chosen Teash as a location to flee from their civil war and found work as mercenaries for the Banished.[6] Teash was heavily damaged during the Razing of Oth Sonin, with thousands of space craft successfully evacuating the moon.[6]
