Gladsheim
From Halopedia, the Halo wiki
Gladsheim was a city on the planet of Harvest [1] that was the second city attacked by the Covenant on Harvest. Thousands of civilians died in the attack. However, at least one person is known to have survived. Gladsheim has a Main Street running down its center, and to the east of the street all buildings were JOTUN Repair Shops and farm-supply warehouses. The buildings are arranged on a grid of wide asphalt streets that stretched out into the Plains of Ida [2].
Trivia
- In Norse Mythology, Gladsheim is actually a realm of Asgard where Odin's hall, Valhalla, is located.
- Wallace A. Jenkins' entire family was killed in Gladsheim during the attack on the city.
- The tallest structure in Gladsheim is its water tower, which is supported by a large polycrete pillar [3]. .
