"I'm afraid of the man I'll become if I lay my life down for the people I don't even care for"

For all of you who don't know, the Everest was a huge human ship commanded by Admiral Cole that disappeared and has a fate yet to be determined. This is a little far fetched as you can see.... But let me bring your attention to this link

The ship at 1:04 seems to say UNSC on it (but I can't seem to make out the name of the ship), but the design seems a little older, cruder and more rugged then ships like the PoA and the Amber Clad. It certainly seems big enough to be the Everest.

So what if Cole and the Everest have some connection to Halo 4?? I know this is really early on, but this was just on my mind.

That'd be interesting.

inb4 UNSC won't be in Halo 4

Yeah..... At least I'm pretty sure the ship says UNSC

It says the ship has prototype starship technology. Now correct me if I'm wrong, but I don't believe the Everest had prototype technology on it.

1. Everest gets lost
2. Finds (forerunner?) technology
3. Spends the decades it was missing trying to study/install it
4. Prototype technology
5. ????
6. Profit

Would work, but the theory is Cole jumped away, met up with his girlfriend's rebel fleet, and went far from the war to start a colony.

@accordingto343

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

And so they coincidentally find this Forerunner sphere and yet any Forerunner message systems or Sentinels who would help Chief continue Bias' atonement would be sitting on their asses even though a ship full of humans is there already?

Perhaps, perhaps. But there are other ships in that picture, not just the UNSC one.... So cole+girlfriend found forerunners??

I never said they found the sphere... Maybe something different. W

Vengeance only leads to an ongoing cycle of hatred.

I'd love to see mysteries like Cole and the Spirit of Fire be tied in with the new trilogy.

Not sure about Cole Sniper, I would think his story should remain ambiguous. Halo still needs some mysteries keep us guessing.

You know, I never thought about Cole tbh. But now that its brought up, I can't help but think 343i introduced Cole's story as a means to bridge a connection to Halo 4.

That concept art looks like human tech.
