Ahh it's you. Been a while hasn't it? We WILL finish this.


Just you wait.

It is!! I find out that there's 12 halos!? no way. Why? because in halo 3,on the mission "the covenant" when you walk past the bridge, the ark has holograms of all the halos that show the status of the rings. If the other unknown halos were destroyed,then it would still have the hologram of the rest. Even if it was lost forever,in slipspace or time or in the 8th dimension of -blam!-s the ark would have an un-updated holograms of those other halos.

And what the -blam!- is up with precursors vs forerunners?! NO NO NO! It's kind of like human vs covenant in a way but it sounds like too much man.

Oh my god the halo universe. It's changing.

Well the huge Space Battle at the end of Cryptum clearly states that a lot of those Halos were destroyed.....I think only leaving 7, but I could be wrong (i don't have the book in front of me)

The Ark automatically rebuilds the halos.

I'm guessing the reason for having Seven will be explained in one of the next two books.

Even if it's destroyed, the ark should have a hologram of it and data showing their status. Oh and um its supposed to build new ones. Face it, cryptum is just blasphemy that should be burned.

Agreed. Cryptum is one of the best things to happen to Halo, the lore has expanded hundred-fold.

I don't understand how people can complain about how it complicates current canon. We knew little-to-nothing about events 100,000 years before the trilogy, so to all haters I'll tell you one thing: STFU.

Its quite simple really. the twelve Rings weren't linked to the Ark. the Halo Array as we knew it didn't exist. In the Cryptum timeline they're just another superweapon. Later they get linked to the Ark.

Just calm down man.

The reason for seven so far already seems to be present in the first book.

All the Halo rings at the Forerunner Capital save for one were destroyed. At the Ark there were already six more Halos stationed at each "petal" of the Ark. Both the Librarian and Didact agree that no more Halos would be created at that point.

I think the real question though that should be answered in the next two books, is what happened to the Ark's automated functions after Didact's time that caused Alpha Halo to be rebuilt in Halo 3, and not the others.

I love it. It's like following a universe for 10 years, learning everything you can about it, and then finding out that you universe you think you know is actually something else entirely, and you've only seen a miniscule sliver of its potential.
