What do they mean?

The Didact

Halo Wikia:
"The Didact's eventual fate is unclear, whether or not he survived the activation or perished, as his location is not specified, be it on the Ark, or one of the Halo Rings."

At the end of Terminal 10, it states the Didact would be furious if he saw the current state of the Halo Array and/or the war with the flood.

At the end of Terminal 8, it states that the Didact had "long plans" if the Halos were to be used against them. He never got to see his full plan go into effect.

So assuming the Didact lived, he could have slumbered until the incident at installation 00 caught his attention or awoke him. The ship-like object in the Halo 4 trailer could be his. He also has a very authoritative demeanor. So, the events thus far in the Halo universe could have been seen as blasphemous and unruly. His motivation would be to restore order to his great 'plan'.

...or I could have missed something and be completely wrong. I also don't know where to put this.

Um... no?

IRIS, the Halo 3 terminals as well as the Terminals in CEA clearly show that the fate of the Didact is still unknown.

Dude fired the rings from the Ark. So, when everyone else was killed, at least the Didact was alive. What happens to him, we don't know, but if anything, the CEA terminals show that he might be alive.

Unless I'm missing something. Then, I'm sure you'll love to fill me in, grey.

Iris is a log from the arrays not the ark, legends showed didact at halo not the ark, and 343 was speaking hypothetically in the CEA terminals i just got done reading the transcript.


"But what I would not give to have earned a single company of Prometheans here right now. They would most certainly restore order with their trademark lethality, although... That would mean HE would have to be here, too. And without the Librarian around to temper his rage, well... These Reclaimers might almost prefer the Flood.
"



All he is saying is that if prometheans showed up that mean didact would have to be with them since he leads them, that is it.



Tell me where it was stated that he fired the rings from the ark? We know from halo 2 that if you stop a ring from firing then you have to go to the ark as a failsafe if not you can activate them all from a single ring.


In that terminal all Didact said was that MB was rushing to the ark (since he could override the firing there) and that OB was going to stop him.
He then says that he was on the wrong side of the line the entire time which means he was in forerunner space still since earth isn't behind the line.
Nothing in that terminal implied whatsoever that he was at the Ark, we have 3 sources that confirm him being at the rings.



*** not to mention OB clearly says that his report will most likely never be read by who it is intended for. which wouldn't be the case if didact live like you people think for some reason. There is no way Didact would be able to cope without his wife bornsteller or not that is a massive loss.

Which is the entire point being made by Guilty Spark. That is why he is such a force to be reckoned with if he does return. Nothing to hold him back, no one to keep him in check.

And wow, I'm pretty sure you're missing entire bits on how the Didact was on the Ark when he fired the rings.

Firstly, with no evidence, The Ark is the only place (which we know of) where all rings can be fired from simultaneously. One Installation alone can trigger the firing sequence of all the Halos. You have to be at The Ark, or at least thats what established fiction has told us.

Secondly, I'm not gonna go find the individual terminal excerpts. All my evidence comes from this series of articles, written in 2008, about the Terminals. My evidence is not from the narrative articles themselves but the excerpts that the author uses.

I'd advice you read them, as well as the other Terminal related articles. Of course, some of this information has since been subtly retconned in Halo: Cryptum but its still a very powerful, useful summary of the Terminal events in Halo 3.

Below are some choice excerpts that show that the Didact was indeed within the Maginot Sphere, or at least not in danger, and that he was on the Ark.

How formal of you, Librarian. We're receiving shipments of indexed beings more frequently than communications... Come back inside, where my fleets can keep you safe... Come home.

The indexed sentient beings were being sent to the Ark, that much is proven.

Mendicant Bias is trying to prevent us from firing the Array. He speeds back to the Ark. but he won't succeed. Offensive Bias will stop him, and I will burn this stinking menace in your name.

MB is speeding back to the Ark to stop the Didact from firing the rings.

Showing that the Didact is still alive, here is a message he logged AFTER firing the rings, as shown in IRIS:

It's done. By my hands. the pyrrhic solution is ignited. All I have left is the quiet of space to lull me to sleep.

I will dream of you


Whether or not he is alive now or now, we don't know. But he did not die when the rings were fired. He did not.

You do understand That Didact would be over 100,000 years old then right? he be the oldest living forerunner in history and probably one of the oldest living beings in history.
I understand the forerunners have an extended lifespan due to their armor but if his wife was 12,000 (i think) and one of the oldest known forerunners then he would far beat her. There is a reason they don't live that long because they can't.


That doesn't dispute my point. you can still fire all the rings from one installation delayed it may be you can still do it. The ark is the only place you can stop all that which is why MB and the gravemind rush for the ark.


You need to pull out excerpts. I have no problem spending 10 seconds finding support for my claims. not to mention you need to relay on yourself not something written by other people. Just because they had a website doesn't magically make them correct.


i read this years ago like everybody else and it wasn't anything awe inspiring.


1. Didact is in charge of the forerunner race and she is outside forerunner space. No different than an operator saying their shipment just reached Singapore. You don't have to be present to receive.


2.What the hell? no it isn't and this is where piggybacking on somebody else's work gets you in trouble.

First off if MB was already at the Ark he would have destroyed it since he is on the floods side. He is returning to the ark probably because he was created there. He didn't just go there, say hi, leave, than ran back because he forgot something.



3.Every bomb has a countdown and you said it yourself that activating a single halo would have the others fire after it. Which is where me saying (you can stop it from the ark) comes into play. Which is why in movies they normally hunt down the detonator not waste time trying to cover the bomb.


4. He is dead and using metaphors for death. There is no way that he would be able to live for over 100,000 years. If the forerunners didn't have an expiration date then 12,000 wouldn't be so fascinating for them.

Didact activated the rings while sending the forerunners to god know where. He stayed behind to make sure OB did his job and to die honorably as he could.


If he activated it from the Ark then we would have more examples other than one terminal that people just misinterpret into anything.


1. IRIS- halo

2- Legends- halo


Im going to go far as saying that 343 was mistaking chief for the didact for some reason hence all his "craziness".


legends commentary says that the forerunner that was at the halo that activated was didact. Hence why the random forerunner is named that afterwards. SO unless the idea from you not dying while your on the ring from cryptum is correct he is dead.

Heh, don't even think you read most of my post. No matter.

First of all, I gave you the excerpts. Those quotes are from the Halo 3 terminals. You're looking at the words, and instead of accepting the very clear meaning behind them, are providing speculative alternatives. I'm open to alternate viewpoints, you can't survive in the Halo community without being open to that, but you're twisting the words so much that your speculation, in my eyes, just doesn't make any sense.

No matter.

The Didact is already bloody old. He was alive back during the Human-Forerunner war. He went into a Cryptum, survived for much longer, got revived and did more cool -blam!- after that. Also, from established fiction, we know Forerunners live for very long. Hell, The Librarian, despite not being in a Cryptum, lived for more than 10,000 years.

We have no idea what the average lifespan of a Forerunner is. Please, if you do, let me know.

The quotes I gave you, if you read them, you would know are from the terminals, NOT from the damn article. I stated that outright. Your Halo fiction is where the quotes are from. Its not piggybacking off other people's work, its actually paying attention to the fiction instead of desperately trying to cling on to my own words without keeping an open mind.

MB wasn't already at the Ark, he was approaching it. That's the battle at the Maginot Sphere, the Forerunners' last stand, where OB won. He never reached the Ark, you're right. I never said he did. The article never said he did. The terminals I quoted never said he did.

.Every bomb has a countdown and you said it yourself that activating a single halo would have the others fire after it.

I said the opposite actually, I said that in order to fire all the Halos, you need to be at the Ark as far as we know. Maybe there's some magical other place we don't know about yet that can do it too but as far as we know, Halos fire individually, unless fired from the Ark or put into standby mode.

Of course, you're gonna find something else to fight in this argument and we ain't gonna stop debating over this. Lets just wait and see how the fiction plays out in the end.

Just try to keep an open mind. I am not the master of the Halo fiction. I don't know a bunch of stuff. But I know enough to know when folks are latching on to schematics.

Agree to disagree here is the only way for now, I suppose.

No,this is wrong and you suck !
Forerunners have unlimite life years...Its just because the forerunners had great war 10,000 years ago with humans.
Thats why they werent old...As stated in cryptum the war was very terrifing and the forerunners had heavy losses...

Basicaly its like the human-covenant war.
The UNSC where losing badly to covenant untill flood came in and the great schism happend.
If not for flood...The humans would have been defeated.(By humans i mean UNSC).

The Didact survived...Because if he would have activated the halos from an installation he would have died from the array range.
And he wouldnt be able to write the message saying that he missed Librarian.

Funny. because if you even read cryptum you would know that forerunners being that old is only due to technological advancements made with the last 25,000 years. Before that we don't know how long they lived but it wasn't as long since they didn't use the armor.

The forerunners didn't have heavy losses compared to the humans. the forerunners population should be in the trillions (if not higher). a simple 100 year war isn't going to have a major impact.


I don't understand how you and sanjeev came to that conclusion. he is clearly talking to her before and during the activation. because If the two of you read the Array logs you would notice he stops talking the second the ring fires.

Why did he say the humans faught mighty ?
Why did the forerunners where afraid of humans ?

It is clearly not stated that the maximum is 25,000 years so its you making it up.

And no its not prooven that he "stops talking the second array fired" and as you reffered to our old argument (the very first)
You assume and that means its wrong...The message itself prooves you wrong.

I read your post, just because it isn't a clear cut answer and is going to require thinking doesn't mean it isn't an answer.

There is nothing to be clear minded about on this matter when there are atleast 2 if not 3 clear sources that he died. you haven't given a reason to why he would chose to live and kill everything including a large portion of his race. I don't even think Faber would do something selfish as that.

Which is the point i am making about forerunner age. If his wife is 12,000 years old and regarded as one of the oldest forerunners why the hell do you think he can live 100,000+ years? haven't you noticed the lack of grandparents being mentioned? they obviously don't live forever.


I was attacking you referencing the article as if it would mean anything. i know where the quotes are from and i know them well.


You say MB wasn't at the ark but the Didact clearly said "MB races back to the Ark". That's why i said piggybacking off people's work is going to get you in trouble. Because if you read that you wouldn't have said " MB wasn't already at the ark".


When was it said that? i want a reference where it clearly said that. now let me start pulling pics and quotes.

----------------------------------------------------------

Two betrayals- "More or less. Technically, this installation's pulse has a maximum effective radius of twenty-five thousand light years. But, once the others follow suit, this galaxy will be quite devoid of life, or at least any life with sufficient biomass to sustain the Flood." (Pause) "But you already knew that... I mean, how couldn't you?"
.......
"Last time, you asked me, if it were my choice, would I do it? Having had considerable time to ponder your query, my answer has not changed."



In short Once you activate one halo the others will follow; And 343 clearly thinks That MC is the didact or something because he is referencing him. If Didact activated the arrays from the ark why would he be talking to 343? why not the monitor of the ark? Once the monitors were assigned to a ring they stayed there we know that from the newer terminals; so did didact just call 343 for advice?

Halo legends was a summary of the events that was to sum up for the generic player. If what you say is true why didn't they show didact at the ark? Since many players that don't know better are going to take this frame by frame that is highly misleading especially since many don't know about didact.

Skip to 7:11 and you can see a forerunner (which 343 confirmed is didact) at a control panel. next thing you know he puts the index in and OMFG HALO ACTIVATES AND SO DO THE OTHERS. So this supports 343's lines and the array recorder data that didact was at a halo not the ark.


Didact at halo

Halo activating



The Great journey- ""Fail-safe protocol: In the event of unexpected shutdown, the entire system will move to standby status. All remaining platforms are now ready for remote activation."

"



Like i said If you stop one ring from firing then all of them have to be remotely activated. Why would that be the case if when you activated one only one fired? they are lightyears apart so they wouldn't make sense unless they all can activate from one firing.



So for the last time. He is dead, Everything supports that he is. until you can have more evidence then lines in a terminal that can be interpreted 6 ways to sunday you don't have any support for your claim. If i need to dissect the terminals and IRIS next i will.

100 years of fighting a weaken faction that wasn't out to fight isn't going to be heavy. 13 personal losses isn't alot. the forerunner population didn't suffer whatsoever because of that war.


Any cornered animal is going to but up a fight, Didact himself claims that it was due to "greed". It was never stated in the book that they were afraid of them because they weren't. they were jealous.


When did i ever say that? i want a qoute. I said the "recent" forerunner technological advancements had been made within 25,000 years. Since the Ecumene "planet" was made 25,000 years prior to the book in which after that majority of the forerunners tech developed. including the body armor that extends their lifespan. Because you don't see any forerunners around from 25,000 years ago; the librarian is one of the oldest and she is a mere 12,000. which means that tech is pretty recent.



How is it "not proven" that he stops talking? did you even read this?


tell me what mistake i am making? going off the information we have, providing sources, and not clinging on to ideas that have no physical support?


Im never going to learn how to do that

Waypoint Moderators aren't really Moderators, just power hungry and its goal is defend their beloved Halo at all costs. (Meaning that they wank Halo too much.)

BS Angel is alleged foe so, be wary of Waypoint and its moderators! Do not attempt to move to Waypoint. Enter your own risk.

*WARNING* IT IS MY OPINION.

Sanjeev and FTW 1997, It was stated that Didact was dead. There's overwhelming evidence....

In other words, as like Grey said, Didact is DEAD. End of story.

Gonna have to go with grey on this one. He's pretty clearly dead. Or at least all evidence that we've been given clearly tells us he is dead. Sure they could pull out a plot twist with him being alive, but that'd have to be a pretty big plot twist involving him having some kind of heretofore unseen SOMETHING that would shield him from the Halo firing and also him basically faking his own death. I don't doubt that it would be possible for them to do it(although it'd be a pretty absurd twist if they did negating a lot if not all of the emotional impact of his story in the terminals), but as of now, there is no evidence to base ANY kind of real argument saying that he could be alive.

Where was it said he was dead? I haven't seen that, only a tid-bit or two referring to his firing of Halo.

And there's also the fact that Didact states he "will begin our [their] Great Journey without you [Librarian]". We know Great Journey doesn't equal death, since Librarian was dead and therefore they would not be without her in such a Journey. We also know Didact planned to follow in the Precursors' footsteps after the Flood had been defeated--which, though pyrrhic in nature, was achieved.

I've yet to see any evidence suggesting he is dead, and only evidence suggesting he's alive. What use would an ominous monologue on the Didact--and then flashing his symbol--on the last Terminal be? We know the Terminals relate to Halo 4, so we need to consider all possibilities.

No, how do we know he is dead? We know that he survived the Halos firing. I think that has been established. But, what evidence shows that he is dead now. As far as I know, his ultimate fate was never revealed after he fired the rings.

Someone please, clearly, show me otherwise. I really want to know this.

"Sometimes life gives you lemons, and then you have to say 'f**k the lemons' and bail."

If you're reading this, you need to stop stalking me. If you can't stop stalking me, you might as well go here.

I personally think all the evidence points to the Didact remaining alive after the Array's firing. As for if he's endured the following 100,000 years until the events of the main trilogy, it remains to be seen.

I don't think it would be a stretch.

Honestly, I would much rather have the new enemy in the new Halo trilogy at least be something/someone that's been foreshadowed, not completely out of the blue. Sure, the Timeless One and The Precursors have been discussed, but not nearly to the extent of The Didact or The Forerunners.

Keep in mind, 343 has to make a game that'l make sense to those who haven't read any of the additional Halo lore. Hell, I'm pretty sure we're all the minority in this aspect, so it's in their best interest that they don't alienate the majority of their customer base.

It's the same reason Bungie never included the rest of Blue Team and the other remaining Spartan-IIs in the main trilogy; it wouldn't have made any sense to the average player. I understand that we have (presumably) two more books left in the Forerunner trilogy to learn about The Timeless One and The Precursors, and that's all good and fine, but it's still only mentioned in the books, and will completely blindside the average fan.

I think having some sort of Forerunner enemy in the new games makes the most sense. Sure, casual fans might not now exactly who The Didact is, but they'll sure as hell understand a Forerunner enemy. (At least I hope so; after all, we've been playing the last four games in the ruins of their civilization and such.)

As for why our main enemy in upcoming Halo games would be Forerunner, I have no idea; I'm sure 343 will come up with something decent. Anyway, what I'm getting at is that lifting the veil on a faction that had been at the forefront yet remained a mystery throughout the entire main trilogy, in my opinion, it's the best way to go.

And there is no evidence for both sides (dead or not) so you cant proove it.

clearly gave evidence for him not surviving so you can't cop in such a pathetic way like that.



If you say he lived then write it up, if you think he didn't write it up, if your not sure then say so.

But don't use circular logic and hide behind premise of "he could be alive, but he is alive" without backing yourself up whatsoever and being prepared to stick with it.




If the Didact ends up living for whatever reason i won't be mad or butthurt because i went with the information given and used logic. you people on the other hand don't have the right to be happy because you just say "he is alive' you don't back yourselves up,have proof nor do you stick with it. If you don't have the balls to accept that you might be wrong then don't post anything.

What Evidence that he is alive?

Also, the Ark is not part of the Halo Array... therefore according to that log Grey linked... Didact was on a Halo ring. Which was stated in Legends.

So tell me, how would he survive a firing of the ring, being present on one?

edit: Also, It's clear Didact is saying his final words. Those sound like something a person would say before dying. And since he's recording, he'd still be in the control room.

What Evidence that he is alive?

Also, the Ark is not part of the Halo Array... therefore according to that log Grey linked... Didact was on a Halo ring. Which was stated in Legends.

So tell me, how would he survive a firing of the ring, being present on one?

edit: Also, It's clear Didact is saying his final words. Those sound like something a person would say before dying. And since he's recording, he'd still be in the control room.


Thank you so that (along with everything else) settles that the didact is DEAD.

I am saving this thread and everytime i see somebody say "he is alive" or imply so im just going to link all of this. If evidence of him living pops up then fine but until then he is dead.

I think that Didact is still alive but I'm not sure. My theory on how he survived the activation of Halo, is that he used the same technology as the technology that was used to save Humanity, the Sangheilli, the San 'Shyuum and the other races. He probably survived the Halo events but it is unlikely that he is still alive after 100.000 years. Maybe he created some sort of immortaly medicine or something like that. I don't know. Perhaps some of the new books will tell more about Didact's 'end' and the other Forerunners.
