Subject: It's astoundingly obvious that the Legendary Planet is Forerunn...

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

I honestly don't know why people are still debating otherwise.

I've been saying it for almost 4 years, all one has to do is look at it and you can immediately see the shield and sword glyph shown on Shield Worlds and the Halos.

Frankie and Bonnie have stated that CE Anniversary will feature Terminals tying into the story of Halo 4. From all the information gathered from Halo 3's Terminals and other sources we know the Forerunners left the Orion Arm of the galaxy. MB wants to atone and sends John to his masters as his example, it could not be made more clear.

And then there's this. The monoliths are very similar to the ones in the Portal Artefact on Earth, everything points to this planet being Forerunner.

I just want to draw a final consensus here where we can all agree.

I liked your connection with MB, and I also agree with the planet being Forerunner.

I'm sure they'll still be saying it's Onyx no matter how much evidence is thrown at them.

I say it's Onyx because I read the book. Obviously you haven't read the book, "Ghosts of Onyx", otherwise you'd be agreeing with me. You're following the band wagon of all the ignorant fanboys who never read the books.

Not to mention its in the Forerunner national colours ;) Grey and blue!

You're saying Mendicant Bias re-directed Chief's half of the frigate to the planet, rather than the portal collapsing? It would make sense, but does he really have the power to do that?

Bias infiltrated the Portal systems at some point, mentioned in one of the Terminals. So it's clear he has a degree of control over the destinations.

That's a pretty solid theory you got there then!

I've read that book a good 10 times and thats WHY I say its not Onyx. Onyx is surrounded by a few trillion seriously pissed off sentinels, and Medicant Bias specifically stated that he'd be sending you to the Forerunners. I didn't see any Forerunners on or in Onyx.

Halsey explicitly states in the epilogue that there are no Forerunners in the Dyson Sphere too.

I have read the books. If you remember the end of "GoO," you'd realize that the "planet" Onyx no longer exists in real space except as a massive fleet of space-faring sentinels and a micro-Dyson sphere only a few meters in diameter. I don't know what the thing in the trailer was for sure, but I do know for sure that it's definitely more than a few meters in diameter.

On another note, I find it interesting that really, the only argument you made there was "I've read the book, listen to me!" You didn't actually point out any evidence from the book to support your claim. In fact, you didn't even provide anything to substantiate your claim that you've read the book. Point out for me evidence from the book that suggests that this is somehow Onyx. If you're not providing evidence, you're not making an argument. You're just randomly yelling with your keyboard.

Also, it should be noted that if someone can accurately be described as a "fanboy," it's almost certain that they will have familiarized themselves with the various elements of the storyline, ergo they WILL have read the books.

I wish I had a source, but I remember Bungie saying that it the Legendary planet was a shoutout to Marathon fans and was never meant to be canon. However, how it looks makes it perfectly believable that it's a Forerunner planet.

Well, the Gravemind did indeed say that defeating him on Installation 04B would only be the addition to time before he can return. ;)

-blam!- Was that actually blammed out? Or did I just type it? You'll never know.

Actually, it's Marathon Mars and I refuse to accept anything otherwise ever.

I recall Bungie stating that Marathon and Halo are 2 completely different universes and are in no way related to each other except for a few small references/Easter eggs.

Saying "you've read the book" really doesn't help your case in a forum full of people who have actually read the book and understand that the outer shell of Onyx is no more, and the only thing left on the surface is a swarm of trillons of sentinels.

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

Wild theory, but maybe the Flood are being controlled by something even greater than the Gravemind. Maybe the whole Covenant-Human War was being influenced from the beginning. No doubt Halo 4 leaves so many questions and our first answer may reside in this planet-structure.

I wonder whether the Assembly will serve any role in the future of Halo. They're adamant that humanity shouldn't use Forerunner technology, ive always liked to play with the thought that that's similar to how Nazara tells you that organic races use the technology of the Reapers to develop down the path the Reapers desire.

Kurt destroyed a city within Onyx, not the planet/sentinels themselves. They're inside Onyx or wherever that micro dyson sphere is. People refer to it as Onyx smart ass. Read the book over.

So many questions. What could be brewing at the Ark Portal, what was found on Kholo? Breathtaking.
