Arby Stayed in HALO Universe, and the MC went to MARATHON universe. But the answer is NO. Why? Well, here it comes, get ready.
So, he says the HALO universe and MARATHON universe are not the same, but the MC landed on the MARATHON universe, which means it exists in the HALO univerese. Ok, so then why does 343 GUILTY SPARK have the MARATHON symbol in the middle of his eye? If the MARATHON universe exists, he should NOT have the symbol since it is already in use in another universe. Which in conclusion, the symbols and all MARATHON references are just EASTER EGGS, and BUNGIE was NOT lying.
Also, you might say it's possible to go from one universe to another, yes it IS true but still, how did the MARATHON symbols get on the PILLAR of ATUMN and 343 GUILTY SPARK if 343 and the crew of the AUTUMN never even met? Also, time travel has been stated by BUNGIE, is NOT in the game. So people from the MARATHON universe ca NOT bring objects from MARATHON to HALO since MARATHON has NOT even happened yet while HALO was happening.
It has also been stated here that the two universes might have different times. Like for example, 1 second in the MARATHON universe can be 1 year in the HALO universe. I lost a lot of sleep over this. Until I finally thought to my self, if the time was different than the time of our reality, it would obviously be explained in the game since that is valuable info that is critical to the game. For example, in DRAGON BALL Z (not sure if you have seen it, but for those who haven't) there was a "Hyperbolic Time Chamber" where the fighters would train. It was added that 1 hour in the real world was one YEAR in the chamber. My point here is, if the time of MARATHON was any different from the "real" world or OUR world, it would obviously state it. Which leads me to conclude that this is NOT a possibility.
HALO does NOT = Marathon!
