I believe I can putt a stop to a few of the arguments.
1, Going by what someone said before about MC and the Arbiter being in the same place, this is impossible due to the fact that the portal, unlike slipspace, is instantaneous. Meaning, that while normally it would take probably hundreds of years in slipspace to get outside the galaxy, they got there immediately, This means that while the portal cut the Dawn apart, the Arbiter being back on Earth and MC being elsewhere, that they can not be in the same place. MC should, by all intentions, have gotten vaporized by Halo firing and detonating, however from what we have seen this is not the case as he is still alive.
2. I know nothing of Marathon, but I do know that MC could not be alive in 200 years, even in cryo. In the books it talks about them needing to replace nutrients lost while in cryo. If this is necessary over a few weeks, imagine it over 200 years.
3. I'm probably wrong on this one, but they are on what, MJOLNIR Mark V/VI? If it is Mark VI, then I believe there was a step below that that they started with, and in the books it talks about a step below THAT which was much bulkier and was required to be plugged-in. This puts it at Mark V or Mark VI 200 years before they have mark IV in Marathon. This would put it a major flaw into a majority of the theories here.
4. I didn't pay much attention to the final terminal on legendary, but from what I've gathered, MB talks about sending you to the Forerunners, which helps give credibility to the Other Forerunner Planet theory.
5. To those of you saying the Marathon symbols are proof, there are also RvB Easter eggs so that means nothing.
If any of you can prove me wrong, by all means do, I would like to learn more about The Halo Universe and Real Life. I realize that some of my points are likely false, however I have only beaten Halo 3 and read the books. That is the only lore I have to go from, other then what I have gleamed from this thread.
P.S. This is my first time posting on this thread so sorry for any rulebreaking.
