I read through the myth.bungie.org encyclopedia, and something
about the sword Balmung was odd to me, so I googled it. Turns
out that Balmung was a sword of Norse myth, made by Wayland.
Here are some tales that may help clear up the bee business.
Balmung
Bungie's apparent obsession with naming A.I.s after swords may
be a prelude to a future A.I. character, but no halo 2 hints to
Balmung as of yet. It's interesting that there were 9 princes, kind
of like the nine Fallen from Myth.
Wayland
Hmm...I think the most interesting part other than the fact that
Wayland made Balmung, is the jewels made out of eyes.
Those are pearls that were her eyes
I can only find scattered bits about bees and spiders in Myth, but
I'm not done looking yet.
EDIT: I just read Dwarf_Pr0n's post, and it reminded me of the
end of Halo when Master Chief is feeling guilty about the
destruction of Halo, and Cortana feels it was the right thing to do.
What, must our mouths be cold?
If this is Cortana speaking, then in simpler terms it would mean,
"why do we have to be so quiet?"
Arachne hung herself, you know. Take a hint already."
This would be Cortana saying "Get over it"
mistake there were seven fallen lords including Balor.
D'oh!
