In the ending of the level Gravemind, Truth gives the Index to Tarturus so he can activate the ring, so by the covenents, activating the rings is the great journy, and it wold kill all the "unworthy" so if the humans are "unworthy" why wold truth go to earth?

The Ark holds some significance, greater than that of a Halo. It probably activates all the Halo's at once, the real Great Journey.

You should of made up your own instrument. You could have named it the PolarLighting -a-phone. People would buy it and they would all be like "Awh, He's so cool for inventing the PolarLighting-a-phone."

Well whatever it is, as these people above me have stated; it holds a lot of significance. It's either protection from the flood, or activates all the halos, or both, or none.

Because its much easer to activate all the rings from the ark than to go to each ring, get the index, and turn the ring on, and get some humans to come with so that you have someone you can do it.

I thought that when one ring activated, the other rings wold activate too, if they don't activate why wold the ring comunicate with the other instalations to put them in standby?

I am...whimsical today.

But once one ring activates, it activates the whole network, the Ark is not needed unless there is a 'snag'. Truth does not know about the failiure of Delta Halo. There is no apparent reason for him to go to Earth, unless the Ark has more significance than just a failsafe device, for the Covenant at least.

Yeah Guscon, I think it's that way, but its a bit stupid why wold the ark be just a failsafe device, maybe the Ark is a remote acivation for the rings, and it wold "save" the species who were in the Ark by reducing them to the most simple life form, this way they woldn't be afected by the Halos, and thats what hapened to the foreruners, and the humans are foreruners in evolution... Maybe, this is just a theory.

Think about it... The ARK. Whatever is in the Ark DOESNT DIE! (think Noah) If the rings are activated i wager that if you are inside of the Ark, the halos dont kill you.

What about the Ark of the Covenant? The one that unleashes the wrath of God upon anything and spares no man?

You face an opponent who has never known defeat, who laughs in foreign tongues at your efforts to survive. This is Reply suicide.

"Oh Molly Connoly ruined my life, I thought the world should know."
Say Anything - Every Man Has A Molly

The Covenant went to Reach to obtain an artifact that the forerunners made. The Crystal.

The Covenant went to other planets for locations of Halos and other forerunner tech...



Once they found what they needed, they bolted.

Truth, for some reason, came back to Earth. My assumption is that they need someone to help run the Covenant excavation there.

And it's probably the SAFEST place the prophet can be. His own Covenant is in shambles, in the midst of a civil war. They won't openly fight with humanity nearby. We'd take advantage of it!

And so... this is why I think he's there.

That... and the big structure in the ground in Africa, whatever it is.

okay,, but suposesly (hope thats who you spell it) profet of truth doesn't know that the Halos kill everyone. And if the halos are going to give them "Salvation" they should be in their homeworld to be saved. Only if the halos activate the network, and then after activating the network, you've got to activate them in the Ark.

maybe truth thinks he will not be killed when the halos are set off cause he is thinks he is worthy, and all he want to do is to get more forerunner artifacts for his new covenant which will survive the great journey

another reason he goes to earth is because he heard that the fishing is awsome there

Shut up brian walker, yea but if the Ark is on earth whats the use, aren't the rigs going to be activated, if capitan keys hadn't put the rings on standby, the halos wold activated before he got to earth.

  • 06.12.2006 1:17 PM PDT

][=][Imperial Center][=][

yes but if the ark is on earth, truth most likely got to it before cheif considering that in the trailer master cheif was walking to a cliffs edge while truth was either dead or going to the ark, if not already inside of it, the ark probably protects people from the blast, it is probably the only way the flood survived the activation, and humans and covenant.

He is looking for the Ark to remotely detonate all of the Halo rings. It's possible he knew Tartarus would fail his job of activating Delta Halo.
