Keep going - I and many reading this are enjoying it. Got me wanting to play all 3 Marathons and Myst now.


As well as I. This may be the "?????" part in Bungie's plan for world domination.

Posted by: homocidalhamI found this. The Song of Roland is essentially what Bungie's games are all connected to. This may aid you with your Myth references. You seem to be more familiar with that series than Cortana and I.
Also, if I may throw my hat into the proverbial "ring", I think it's definitely worth looking into the other swords mentioned in that last article you link, SJ. While perhaps not having connections to AI, they could have connections to other facets that each of the series had.

For example, the story behind Almace, wielded by the Archbishop Turpin* in his battle against Abisme seems to be fairly interesting, following a fairly basic protagonist versus antagonist archetype when it comes to that section of the Song of Roland. It seems something like that could be easily woven into almost any of the franchises (Halo, Myth, or Marathon) while still having a distinct relation to said story and the weapon itself.

Perhaps I'm wrong. Just food for thought.

*of what he is an Archbishop, I know not
HAHA! I'm a genius!!! (just to encourage you to click on the link, I ended up finding an AI in Halo named Almace)

Also, (sorry if I'm going to start repeating things from cortana's post; I've read it all but I don't remember all of its contents exactly) I've noticed that each of the swords related to and mentioned in the Song of Roland has a reliquary, (a holding place for relics, likely ones of a holy nature). This could tie in with the way that AI are able to be stowed away and carried (like Cortana in Chief's helmet slot-thing). I'm not quite familiar with the Marathon story, so I don't know the nature of Durandal and how he (he?) was treated, cared for, and transported but it could be an interesting idea. I don't know... I think I'm becoming too wrapped up in this.

In a time long past, the armies of the dark came again to the lands of men. Their leaders became known as the fallen lords, and their terrible sorcery was without equal in the west.
In 30 years they reduced the civilized nations into carrion and ash. Until the free city of Madrigal alone defined them. An army gathered there, and a desperate battle was joined against the fallen
Heros were born in the fire and bloodshed of the wars which followed and their names and deeds will never be forgotten

Myth is a really fun game that everyone who is a Bungie fan should play. More people Play Myth 2: Soulbligter than Marathon Infinity and many more people create custom content.
