Note: this is not the Halo universe, this is a different, completely new universe where Sangheili exist but the forerunners never did exist outside of Sangheili mythology.
A deep blue crystalline mineral was discovered in large proportions on Sanghelios by excavators in northeastern Yermo digging a site for a power plant.
The mineral turns out to be extremely valuable and useful, especially for computers and weapons technology. It is named Yermon, after the continent it was found in, the high amount of Boron in the crystal and because Sanghelium was a bit corny.
The rest of the galaxy gets word and prospectors looking for the mineral, despite the fact extremely few make it to the planet before being shot down, become a major nuisance for the Sangheili.
Then, Major powers in the galaxy, like the Imperial Earth Conglomerate, have come to harvest the Yermon for themselves.
The United Systems Alliance, a powerful ally to the Sangheili, come to Saghelios's defense after a request from several Kaidons for their assistance. Both parties have one goal in mind, keep Yermon for the Sangheili to decide for themselves what they want to do with it.
You are either a member of the Alliance, the Conglomerate, or a Sangheili attempting to keep the Conglomerate off of their mineral.
EDIT: about 99% of the Alliance is up in space, the locals are far more than capable of covering the ground.
Let's go.
