when i was reading the fall of reach book i noticed they said something about a floating purple covie that took stuff apart and put it back together does any one have any clue to what this is and if it will be in halo 2................i also saw people were altering the story of halo ......HALO is not covenant built just enhabited they were frightened yet curious on how to harness its power..............ONE MORE QUESTION when halo 2 starts mc is on earth but in fall of reach they just " glassed " any planet that posed a threat or didnt have any valuable reasoning....does this mean that theres something on earth covies are after

the floating one is an engineer, theyre in first strike, halo was built by the forerunners and the covenant worship the forerunners as gods and try to take all thier technology, and the covenant dont always just glass every planet they came across, sometimes they deploy troops to slaughter everyone, then glass it when the marines hammer them on the ground

i think they will be in halo 2, and the only time they don't glass a planet is when there is something on the planet they are after, they glassed most of reach, except one part where they were looking for something, there are several theories about the covenent, halo, the forerunners, and how we relate to all of it, some believe earth has forerunner technology, possibly the pyramids, who really knows, but they are not glassing earth because they are looking for something.

i agree with diablo like in Fall of reach they didnt glass one planet cuse they were after a stone.......one that we thought was primitive but there was more to it than that

they're not after MC, except to kill him. the prophets want him dead, but all attempts have failed.

THE COVENANT WANT TO DESTROY HUMANS BECAUSE THEY KNOW THAT THE FORERUNNERS BUILT STUFF ON REACH, SIGMA OCTANUS, AND EARTH. ON REACH THERE WAS THAT CRYSTAL THING, ON SIGMA THERE WAS SOME ROCK THING, THERE IS SOMETHING ON EARTH!!!!!!

they are not destroying us simply because we have forerunner technology on our planet, it's something more, something bigger, us being forerunners ancestors perhaps, or something else alltogether

why all caps?

Engineers aren't combatants, they're only interested in fixing stuff (and they don't care which side, either. In First Strike, they helped the humans repair alot of stuff, including a needler for the MC). It would just be a waste of ammo to shoot them.

There's probably Forerunner Artifacts on Earth that the covenant want, so they're going to find the artifacts before they glass the planet.

in the book fall of reach it said that the covenant were just the gods instrument so i dont think they really choose what they do its mainly the " gods " that tell them what to do

unless it's the prophet's will, and they're just saying that it's the god's will.....

or perhaps what they think the gods would want them to do...spiritual are we? or perhaps an excuse by the prophets to wipe out the human race for reasons yet unknown
