Subject: Why didn't the Heretics join the Humans?

No, I am not talking about the separatists, I am taking about the heretics from Halo 2 in the level "The Oracle" as both of them know the truth of Halo and hate the Covenant. They could have stirred something together but I'm assuming that the Arbiter silenced them before they had a chance to come in contact with the Humans.

Soon to be breaking news:


US Coast Guard prepares for massive rescue mission after Iranian fleet sinks off shore. Reports say a small thunderstorm caused most of the ships to simply...fall apart.

Maybe they still hated Humans.

They most likely either adopted Covenant armor again and joined the Separatists, or just weren't seen in Halo 3 like the Separatist Grunts and Hunters.

I think they were all killed by the Arbiter and that storm that was supposed to hit the station after they left.

You answered it yourself. The rebellion never reached outside of Threshold. There's no way of knowing if they would have joined humanity or not.

Even then it's still likely they would still be hostile towards humans at this time depending on what they believed in exactly. Even though the purpose of the rings was revealed, Elites still had a base religion dealing with worship of the Forerunners long before the prophets came into the picture. That belief still may have stayed after breaking off from Covenant. For example in Ghost of Onyx those at Joyous Exaltation were still hostile to humans, and they still regarded Forerunner technology as something precious to be fought for.
