I don't trust gaming magazines as reliable sources. They tend to take things way out of context and always make assumptions.

btw can you please post a link to the screenshots


He can't. It's leaked materials, it's not allowed.

And, yes, Grey. I believe it's Faber that we will fight.

Oh I'm going to love the level in which you actually face him. And then cry due to the massive firepower advantage he has.

(Wasn't there a quote in Cryptum which inferred Builder Security infantry units could muck up a planet's surface on a large scale?)

Nope. That would be silly.

Could it not be referring to "Creator" as in the Forerunner as a whole?


Then thats a poor grammatical error if thats what they meant.

Going along with this idea of Faber being the antagonist, and pulling a few bits of knowledge from the CEA terminals:

In the "Two Betrayals" terminal, 343GS mentioned that "the Didact never fully got to implement his plan, but if our tools (the Halo Array) were ever turned against us...long plans, indeed." That's a citation since I can't remember the exact quote, but my point being that there's still 6 Halos in the Galaxy; IIRC in Primordium it is stated that there is a Greater and Lesser Ark. One of these is the Ark destroyed in Halo 3. So at least one Ark could potentially remain to allow Faber to activate the Halo array (god knows for what intent he wants to kill everything, it's a theory in progress).

So, in turn, perhaps in the Reclaimer Trilogy we have to find a way to use the Didact's "plan" to stop the "tools" being used against the will of most Forerunners, i.e. not Faber and his cronies.


You are fine the quote is correct. I thought that was reffering to the humans since it seems (From Glasslands) that ONI might use the halo array on the elites. Not to mention i see no reason to really fight the forerunners or how they are evil and a threat to the universe. I use the "against them" argument in conjunction with me thinking the forerunners are in this galaxy still.

I actually believe. Chief lands. The planet outside is always cleaned up so that no extraterrestrial organism can enter. Sentinels come and try to take him out as he is a foreign intruder.

He fights them off and accidently releases some flood spores, or shuts down a whole important energy grid.He gets his new armour from inside a forerunner structure which upgrades his armour with help of Cortana hacking. Forerunners decide to take him out, cause he is a nuisance. They do not know of his story.


Though the forerunners would be able to look at his Gea not to mention the fact that a human is in the same location as they are they would see it as a sign, remember what bias last told us. I highly doubt they would bring flood samples with them but then again even forthencho was surprised at how stupid they can be.

chakas said he needed to find the librarian to find his friends geas' that would mean he couldn't find her geas unless he already
had her geas which doesn't make sense


Did you re-read the paragraphs?


I see very clearly how much the Librarian has shaped humanity since the end of the first human-Forerunner war.

Whenever you look inward and see an ideal female . . . whether it be goddess, anima, mother, sister, or lover . . .

For a brief, barely sensible instant, you will see the face and feel the spirit of the Librarian.


"Some say she is dead, that she died on Earth. But that is demonstrably untrue.

"One of you almost certainly carries Vinnevra and Riser's old spirits within. Only the Lifeshaper can find them and coax my friends back to life. And after a hundred thousand years of exploration and study . . .

"I know where to find her."



I won't even bother putting the entire thing in bold and underline it because as i said, he is implying a Gea.

That was the Halo and sphinxes destroying JanJur Qom not the builders.

I somehow think that they have tried to pretend not to exist due to their stupidity earlier on. They may not check his gea until afterwards. Plus they could be in dormant or in sleeping cryo tubes for when the attack occurs. Or this is the gateway to their home planet.

Number 1 rule about having any idea about anything.

Don't force it and think it is the best idea ever.

You are really forcing that idea of yours Risay and it isn't even a good one logically.

I don't know how that implies a geas but then again I wouldn't be suprised if that theory about halsey having a dormant geas of the librarian is true.

although if Faber kept the didact as a bartering chip to use against the librarian but the didact escaped and rescued the librarian after her final contact with bornstellar/didact and took her to one of his shield worlds I wouldn't be suprised either

I understand nothing because my life is a conspiracy.

If we are fighting Forerunners then Legendary is going to be a nightmare.
