Subject: Legendary Planet, what is it?

I started up the heated debate on whether the SPARTAN-II in the cryo tube near the end of Reach is really Linda.
I created the Moa XING avatar pic.
Also I earned the All Star nameplate with this submission to Week 14 All Stars http://www.bungie.net/images/News/Inline11/bwu_0415/art/likea boss.jpg

So there has been some speculation onto what exactly the "Legendary Planet" is.
Here is my theory.

FACTS:
Onyx is actually nothing but special Sentinels. In the center of it is some sort of slipspace bubble. Once Fred, Kelly, Linda, Mendez, Halsey and some S-IIIs go through they appear in a Shield World (similar to one that is seen in Halo Wars.)
Shield Worlds were commisioned by the Didact as a safehaven for the Forerunners from the Flood and Array.

Theory:
I believe that Halsey is wrong and that the shield world is NOT inside the slipspace bubble in Onyx. If you read Cryptum, you would know that there was Slipspace portal that transported Bornstellar from the Forerunner capital to the Ark.
The Portal on Earth uses the same type of portal.
I believe that inside the center of Onyx is a Slipspace Portal (small enough to get individuals through) and that portal transported individuals outside the galaxy (not as far as the Ark) to inside a Shield World. The FUD ended up coming out of slipspace "near" the Shield World and a couple years later, it ends up there. Big ol' family reunion for Halsey and John.
I'm guessing the Onyx Sentinels were placed there around the Portal to protect against Mendicant Bias and the Flood.
Now I'm guessing also that there could possibly be Forerunners inside this Shield World, either in cryptums or in slipspace cryo pods. It wouldn't make any sense that absolutely not one single Forerunner survived.

Brr, sure is cOLD in here.

Also, no. Just, no.

Bungie has stated that the Legendary ending to H3 is just a tip of the hat to Halo and Marathon fans. The Legendary ending is never canon.

It's Marathon Mars.

[quote]Subject: Legendary Planet, what is it?[quote] It was this planet that appears in an extended version of the final cutscene in Halo 3. You can only see this if you played the level in Legendary difficulty. It shows the Master Chief and Cortana's half of the ship drifting towards and unknown planet. That is the Legendary Planet.

Personally? I wondered if it was Charum Hakkor.

Legendary planet I believe is the Forerunner home world If you read all the terminals in halo 3 on Legendary it speaks of Mendicant Bias wanting to atone for what he's done to the forerunners by siding with the Gravemind when he became Rampant(or something along those lines) so he's sending Chief to the Forerunner home world to show that he has atoned for what he's done.

"And so here at the end of my life, I do once again betray a former master. The path ahead is fraught with peril. But I will do all I can to keep it stable - keep you safe. I'm not so foolish to think this will absolve me of my sins. One life hardly balances billions. But I would have my masters know that I have changed. And you shall be my example."

This is what I believe the legendary planet is.

You're either trolling or horribly misinformed. Bungie has never stated this, and 343 has said they'd have to continue the Chief's story after that ending (its canon)

Everyboby is crazy! Its Pluto! You can totally see it in the shape and the size. I mean that Frigate's rear end is huge when compared to the planet

  • 04.23.2011 7:19 AM PDT

By the power of truth, I, while living, have conquered the universe.

Given that Mendicant Bias constantly speaks of atonement and using John as his example, I've seen a general consensus that Bias is sending John to the place beyond the Orion Arm where the Forerunners fled.

Grey101 and I believe this is somewhere near the Magellanic Clouds.

I doubt that the world has any connection to the books, as bungie doesn't like the characters in the books to show up in the games (FoR compared to Reach is a pretty easy example).

Also, I'm pretty sure that it was stated that Earth had the only intergalactic slipspace portal, so I don't think Onyx's slipspace portal would've taken them to a shield world in another galaxy.

Also, I expect that the world is going to be featured in the next Halo game (whenever it comes out). So I doubt it has any connection to anything we've seen so far (well, maybe a shield world of some sort, but not the one in GoO).

Um... did you just say that "the amarican astroligists fked up"?

You do realize that Pluto was considered a planet long before America was even discovered right? And that it's the "American Astronomers" (Astrologers are ones that divine from the stars and planets, not study them...) that finally made the conclusion to exclude Pluto as a planet because it doesn't match the definition of one. It has now been recognized as a "Plutoid", along with Makemake, Haumea, and Eris (which is even larger than Pluto itself). These four are the only labeled "Plutoid's" but there are over 70 more "canadates" that likely fall under the same definition.

@accordingto343

Your one stop shop for all of 343's fabulous errors and ridiculous notions in the Halo lore.

What is the Legendary planet? A mysterious planet.

  • 04.23.2011 12:51 PM PDT

Although this might be completely wrong, it kind of looks like it is close to Reach. Compare the opening scene when you first put in the disk of Reach of that blue glowy thing and look at the blue glowy thing to the left of the planet. Looks very similar to me.

I think it's the colony world Admiral Cole founded after his alleged death.
