Charum Hakkor

Charum Hakkor is a planet in its system that once served as the heart of the Human-San'Shyuum alliance.
== History ==
Previously, the Precursors had settled on the planet, building large structures there. When the ancient humans settled, they fortified their own cities against these ancient structures, looking like tendrils, according to a visit from Bornstellar, a few thousand years later. It was home to the infamous Primordial, a creature of great power that had been imprisoned on the planet. The creature was once believed to be the last surviving Precursor. It escaped when a early Halo ring installation was test-fired on Faun Hakkor; destroying the nearby Precursor structures, including the Primordial's prison. The Primordial itself was aged billions of years until it died, forced upon itself by the Forerunners, who had attacked the planet during the previous Human-Forerunner war.
=== Human-Forerunner war ===
Charum Hakkor was the site of the last battle during the Human-Forerunner war. The siege would last fifty years and broke when Humanity could no longer hold out against the constant attacks during the last three of fifty years. The Didact personally saw that the Lord of Admirals and other high-ranking members of Humanity surrendered. Charum Hakkor was also the location where the Ur-Didact and The Librarian first met. It also holds the distinction of being the test site of the first Halo installation.
== Culture ==
It once featured a wealth of Precursor architecture and structures.
