| - Fell Justice was the fourth planet of the Dara system, orbiting in a binary planet system with Azure Misery. One of the Covenant's major strongholds during the Great War, Fell Justice would become a major, inter-cultural port of call during the Rebuild Era, becoming especially famous for its underworld activities. The large world also made economic use of its two moons, Tranquil Illumination and Holy Outpost, and the vast Sublime Grace orbital station network that stretched across a large portion of the planet. Originally settled by the United Earth Government in 2378 as the colony of Rangi, the settlers were from the Everest Endeavor, a joint New Zealand-Spanish colonization effort that would keep the colony running for twenty years until the project's funding was unexpectedly cut off by its sponsoring nations. The colony would continue to try and carve out an existence for the next few years, but with their supply line cut off and the native fauna quite formidable, the Rangies eventually died off. The planet, far from civilized space, would eventually fade from colonizers memories, with most records being destroyed during the mid-2400's. During the late 2400's, however, the planet would be rediscovered by the explorer and planet charter Mikhail Faukner, who would lead to the colony's resettlement, and restoration of its data within the Colonial Authority Administration's archives. Restored to a population of roughly 750,000 by 2494, the planet would soon come to experience a small role within the Insurrection when rebels took over the standing government and provided safe-haven to all Insurrectionists, as well as resources for future operations. The UNSC, catching wind of the situation quickly enough, launched a small task force to eliminate the rebel threat, successfully assassinating or capturing rebel leaders and driving off all Insurrectionist forces within three days of bloody conflict. During the Great War, Rangi would fall victim to more violence as the invasion forces pressed in. In 2529, a UNSC fleet retreated to Rangi for repairs and refueling, a Covenant fleet followed shortly after and proceeded to take over the world. With the human forces eliminated, the Covenant Empire started their own colony on the planet, renaming it Fell Justice. Within months, it sported thousands of Sangheili, Unggoy and Kig-yar, with several large cities accommodating their lifestyles: Sangheili would use the world as a training and hunting ground - Jiralhanae, despite protests, were banned from using the ranges - while Unggoy breeding and resource acquisition were other major assets the colony provided. After the war, Fell Justice would remain outside the jurisdiction of any superpower thanks to the Treaty of Voi's territorial lines, but in 2562 a dispute arose over the UNSC's claim to the world. Given the fact that the UNSC had colonized the world twice prior to the Sangheili's possession of it, the argument appeared valid, and it was the subject of heated debate in several inter-governmental courts for months until the decision was made to officially list it as a USR colony. Despite this move, the world would effectively retain its independence due to its placement on the Frontier, and the court case merely served to draw in more companies and diverse species to the world.
