Ok this is going to be a little bit tricky to explain but I hope you all understand that the chief is heading for the shield world known as "Onyx".

Open this

Halo: Ghosts of Onyx

After reading "Ghosts of Onyx" I was stunned when I read the ending. the description of what onyx had become was very similar to what the chief is heading for (in the video fast forward to 14:14) is describes that the surface of onyx was blown into space. It then says a pattern emerged beneath, Crosses and lines and dots. They were Identified as sentinals. This could mean the chief is not heading for a planet at all!

Before Dr.Halsey, Mendez and the other Spartans went into the shield world the portal was described by the elites as a silver light. besides beams we dont know what else sentinels are capable of there could be a chance that the sentinals are able to open the portal to the shield world which is exactly what chief could be heading straight for.


Halo: Glasslands

We all know that this book takes place in the wake events of Halo 3, and there have been some rumors on some internet forums stating that we will be getting a small preview for halo 4.


The enemy?
It could be possible that "some" covenant survived the destruction of onyx. During ghosts of onyx the elites that were ordered to hunt down the spartans were unaware that other elites joined human forces against the covenant. If this planet is the onyx shield world then blue team could be facing a completely new threat, maybe worse then the covenant (and flood).

For those who agree with this theory and have actualy READ IT!!! Then I would just like to say "Welcome back to blue team".

Never say you're bored. Never say you're satisfied with the world. Never stop doubting or questioning things. Always wonder. Always think. But always take time to drop your guard, you don't have to be smart all the time.

I have no words to compare to how wrong this is.

Onyx "SURFACE" was destroyed. millions of sentinals were underneath the surface and they could be capable of building anything!

As I welcome you.

OK, that doesn't support why MB would bring the MC to Onyx, nor does it support the reason to bring him to a Micro-Dyson sphere

You were correct. I'm just adding on to what you said. I was actually replying to the OP.

1) The only thing remaniing of Onyx is a sphere a few meters across and trillions of pissed off sentinels.

2) There is a new, universe threatening enemy in the planetoid, not Covenant, most likely Precursor.

3) Medicant Bias sent the Chief to this planetoid. Why would he do that if there was already a squad of Spartans there, as it were?

4) MB said he's sending Chief to meet his masters, (Forerunners). I didn't see any Forerunners in Onyx.

5) The Forerunners left the galaxy anyway, so unless Onyx is spontaniously in Andromeda, I doubt it is Onyx.

Onyx "SURFACE" was destroyed. millions of sentinals were underneath the surface and they could be capable of building anything!


There's no evidence that these sentinels "build anything". They are programmed to created a defensive shell, and if disturbed, attack whomever is disturbing it.

"but you already knew that, I mean, how couldn't you?

Only when no Human brick is left atop another, shall we be satisfied with your destruction.

To be honest I'd be very surprised if it ended up being Onyx.
The book isn't that widely read, and isn't new, so having it as a major tie-in to the next big game seems unlikely.

It could be a similar type of installation, or even one like the mini one in Halo Wars, all we really know is that it's big and Forerunner-made.

It might also be a portal structure leading somewhere else entirely.

Sorry to say this dude but that is completely wrong, the inside of onyx was comprised of sentinals and machines first of all, they then built the structure of the planet around that. When the shield world was activated the sentinals basically shed the planets crust. The spartans stepped into basically some sort of dyson sphere where it is bigger on the inside, or something like that. Then the sentinals preceded to destroy and covenant vessels, so that is not onyx, it is the forerunner home world.

Well, I respect you're "Hypothesis". If these sentinels can build, that will filter out the excuse of onyx being destroyed. However, you need to answer to the rest of the problems such as what roberto above listed.
