A wild theory. Please don't flame just because you don't agree or its is too imaginative for you to handle. It could happen. I welcome feedback.

PLEASE READ CAREFULLY TO FULLY UNDERSTAND WHAT I'M TRYING TO SAY. I KNOW IT IS VERY LONG.

Note: This fanfic is for people who really know the story of halo universe, because it can be confusing.

Does anyone else think that the Eiffel Tower in Paris looks a lot like that FORERUNNER ship that the Prophet of Truth escaped on from high charity at the end of Halo 2??

Pictures

Forerunner Ship

Eiffel tower


Synopsis: Under Eiffel Tower there is an Forerunner ship and the “ARK” is actually in Paris, France. The ark(earth is also a halo-like weapon installation). One of the main weapons was shown communicating in the Halo 3 trailer. The trailer was in africa, but it was only part of the Ark(which is the earth). Pls read on to fully understand the details.

Fanfic:

The first time the Forerunners remote activated halo(like the prophets want to do now), had to get to the ARK(EARTH) somehow right. They probably got here the same way the Prophet did, on a space ship. In fact it was the covenants who copied the forerunners.

The covenant was know to warship the forerunners technology and artifacts. The forerunner could have left documents of their last resort remote activation of halo(like a suicide note). The prophet found the some of the documents(except for the part about the flood) and thought that this as the great journey and try to follow or copy everything the forerunners did, including riding a ship(same ship) to the ARK(Inside EARTH).

100,000 years ago the few chosen forerunners out of the entire race arrived in Paris, France where the Ark is located. Planet earth is not a halo, but it also had the weapons as powerful as the halos(like the one seen communicating with the other halos in the halo 3 trailer). The Ark is not in Africa, but one of its main weapons is in Africa(seen in h3 trailer). The installation seen activating in the Halo 3 trailer is not the ark. It is only a part of the Ark. The Ark is the name of the whole installation(including the weapon firing in the trailer) which is inside Earth. The reason for this 8th installation was to cover areas that the other 7 halos could not cover with their firing ranges. The forerunners store their space ship in a dock underground(which is now under the eiffel tower). They mark the spot where the space ship is docked with a symbol on the ground which is a picture of the ship. They marked it so that if in the future they stumble on the ship, they can re-acquire the data of halo and learn about their past inside the ship’s storage devices.

They avoid being killed by the halos weapons by being inside the Ark. Thinking that the halos will kill the flood's food and ultimately kill the flood. Although the ARK protects them from dying, the side effect of halo’s weapons are the loss of memory. The forerunners(which are now called the humans) were automatically ejected by the Ark after the halos firing sequences (programming the ark to do so since knowing that they would lose their memory and eventually trapping them selves inside). The human emerged from the ark with their memories were wiped, so they kept on life for a few thousands of years and lived peacefully until they encounter the covenant and again the flood.

The architect assigned to design the eiffel tower was undecided on how the tower was to be made. Then takes a walk to where the tower was designated to be made and accidentally stumbled on this mysterious symbol on the ground. The architect (Gustave Eiffel) thought that the design of the symbol was marvelous and beautiful. In fact, he thought it was perfect for the design of the tower. It was aerodynamically perfect(it was a flying ship) , structurally perfect(to withstand enemy fire and be intact), and the shape was felt to be a very powerful symbol. The tower was eventually built on top of the forerunner ship which was on top of the Ark.

The ship and the ark is meant to be found again(probably in halo 3), therefore we(humans) can learn from our past mistakes. In the trailer, Cortana says "i know your future, i know your past" because the gravemind had access to the data left behind by the forerunners and told cortana. HALO 3 "FINISH THE FIGHT" & "LEARN YOUR PAST."

THE END. Thank you.

great idea, but i still think that the area in the trailer is definitely NOT paris, it looks a lot more like africa. possibly near mombasa, but im not sure. my main reason for not thinking it's paris is because paris would not have that much sand blowing around, it would have many more buildings (although destroyed/ decimated).

No. The place in the trailer was Africa. Only that the thing in the trailer isn't the ark like what everyone else is thinking. I meant that the thing in the trailer was only part of the ark.( like a weapon). Read carefully, i know its a lot of writing.

I said to stop making post in your last theory topic you made about 4 hours ago. Now you make a new one. Since when was Mt.Killimanjaro in France?

why would the ark be put in halfway through the campaign? personally, i think its a rally point that leads to the arks position or another rally point.

  • 06.16.2006 5:51 PM PDT

They even said that whats in the trailer is Mombasa, after the whole "kaboomy". You can see the mountains in the background (that include Killamanjaro) and the bridge.

Interesting post though.

Please read what I have to say before flamming me. It is more fanfic than theory. Plus i didn't say that the trailer was in France. Read carefully. What do you have against me anyway?

IGNORE THE CAPS, IT IS MADE TO BE EASIER TO READ AND CATCH YOUR EYE.

I DID NOT SAY THE ARK WAS IN AFRICA. READ EVERY LITTLE THING I SAID. READ THINGS INSIDE THE BRACKETS, IT EXPLAINS THINGS.

its Africa because archaeologist have evidence that human life was first concieved in Africa and bungie has tied that little tidbit into halo.

France has nothing but wine, cheese, and men who cant fight

  • 06.16.2006 6:00 PM PDT

The Effiel Tower is a modern engineering marvel, constructed at least 10,000 years after any forerunner's could have placed the ark on earth. Unless the French are maintaining secret contact with the long extinct Forerunners, this theory is on shaky ground.

Don't hate France, because it wasn't called france back then anyways.

THIS REPLY IS TO THE OTHER PEOPLE TOO:

I CANNOT EMPHASIZE THIS ENOUGH. PLEASE READ CAREFULLY AND THROROUGHLY. DON'T JUST SCAN THROUGH. YOU'LL MISS THINGS AND ARGUE ABOUT THE WRONG THING.

NO, THE EIFFEL TOWER IS NOT THE SHIP, THE SHIP IS UNDER IT.

Stop using caps locks dude!

The French had to dig under the site of the tower before they even constructed it.

I never said how deep the ship was store under. I just said that it was under the eiffel tower, and it was marked by a symbol on the top. Plus, to make the foundation, it doesn't need THAT deep.

Sorry about the caps, it was to emphasize for people to read carefully before they start argueing about the opposite of what i posted.

the fact is that no one likes your theory because it is based solely on the shape of one ship and France is........well its France nothing more to say

Eh, this would make more sense if the Humans hadn't have built the Eiffel tower in the 1800's...


Why not!
In the post i said that the designer accidentally stumble upon the symbol which he used for his design.

Why hate France? Just because they didn't support us in the war in iraq doesn't mean they bad people. Plus, without France's support, the united states would never have gotten independence from Britain. (France was fighting against Britain in Europe) Please don't include anymore politics in this discussion. This was just an explaination.
