Similar to my own ideas. I'm keeping an open mind until this saga has been completed, but for now I choose to believe that the Prophets, or at least one of them, knows something that no one else does - that humans are, in fact, the decendants of the forerunner. The rest of the Covenant wouldn't accept seeing that their "gods" are simple humans, less advanced than any of their own race, the Prophets would lose their power, and since their power was the only thing keeping them from extinction, they'd be no more. They're fighting for their own survival. With humans out of the way, there's nothing that can prove that their gods aren't real gods. Nothing to keep the Prophets from maintaining their position in the middle of the universe's best bodyguards.

But, that's only a theory. Everything is just theories. We won't know anything until this has all ended. I'd be happy if I was proven wrong.

In fact, I'm not expecting to find out all the answers, even after having read all the books, watched the movie and completed the games. I suspect this'll never truly come to a real conclusion...


That's quite the theory there. I certainly agree with you in that I would be happier if the movie/final book/final game don't ave an hending agreeing with my theories at all at this point. I'd rather be suprised. I do hope though that the series has a somewhat conclusive end in which almost all questions are answered (at least all the important ones). As much as I have defended the cliffhanger ending to Halo 2, it wouldn't work for a final installment of a Trilogy. If there's no hope of answering the questions, why put them out there?

.... well, ok. You could say to make us (the fans) think, but I don't want to.
