This apple is brown, and rotten. This orange on the other hand, is in relatively average shape. So the orange is definitely the preferable option. ----------You can't compare apples and oranges. You're so dumb.
First, they were split up because Masterchief couldn't make it to the end of the ship, where the door was. And if the Arbiter didn't get out of the docking bay, before the ship left Halos atmosphere, he would of died fairly instantly. He would of sufficated, and his blood would of boiled. Not pleasant at all. As the ship entered the portal, it closed. Only half of the ship made it through. Chief was left behind.
As for the hole legendary ending. People assume its ment to elude to a future game. Thats not the way I see it. I doubt that was the intention, the original one anyways. I am pretty sure, it was supposed to be an open ended way, of bringing closure to the character. Death wouldn't of done his justice. And having him get back to Earth, where the only speculation that could exist, is what age he dies at wouldn't either.
So what happened to chief? Its supposed to be ironic. Through nine ages, the Covenant searched the galaxy for the Halo rings. Believing if they were to activate it, they would be propelled in a great journey. To the Forerunners final resting place. To join them, in godhood.
The Covenant however, had a largely deluded religion. The Prophets, as a primitive species came across Forerunner records. Likely onboard the Forerunner Dreadnought. They interperted its historical recording, with their primitive, superstitious mind sets. That interpertation, backed up by cold hard evidence, Forerunner technology. Created a dogma, that would come to dominate the Prophets society. Eventually, this dogma went over to dominate, the Covenant.
The records, spoke of how the Forerunners fired the Halo rings, to perserve biological diversity. How a few, were saved by fleeing to the Ark. And how what was left of the once great Forerunner civilization, went on a great journey, to find the precursors. To find somewhere to call home.
After nine ages, the Covenant suffered its greatest defeat, their leader killed. Then their greatest enemy, the demon, activated Alpha Halo. Drifted through space, in a long and great journey, his final destination, common with the Forerunners. No matter how hard Truth schemed, no matter how long the Covenant prepared, no matter how determined Gravemind was. John won.
Truth thought, even to the end, he would become a god. The Covenant, fought and planned, hoping they might become gods. Gravemind, thought of himself as god. But in the end, a single man overcame them all, and ate the fruit they long sought after. Because he had something they didn't...................He had luck.
