Left behind, other meaning?

In Response To: Prophet of Truth and the Great Journey (mrbananas)

: With mercy’s dying words he said “earth, to finish want was started, and this
: time none of you will be left behind.” That “you” refers to/includes
: humans. So clearly this must be some conspiracy to kill of somebody.

: Not if Mercy is true to his name, just like Regret is and how I support Truth
: is too. To finish what was started is referring to the quest to get into
: the divine beyond where the forerunners are. Yes, the you does
: refer/include humanity, but I think this is a general “you” referring to
: everyone, humanity, elites, etc. Now you might think this just supports
: killing everyone even more but wait. “And this time” means that this has
: to have happen before. Thusly I say he is referring to the activation of
: halo. However, remember, according to the covenant religion, what did the
: first activation of halo do. It brought the forerunner and all those
: worthy into the Divine Beyond. Thusly, that means, everyone else currently
: alive, the prophets, brutes, humans, grunts etc. were left behind during
: that first activation due to the fact that we are here and not in the
: divine beyond. And now, the Prophet of Mercy, being true to his name, is
: giving all races including humanity pardon and stating that they will not
: be left behind from the great journey and divine beyond.

What if Truth is going to earth to kill the embryos, to make sure humans won't be left behind to start up again? What if to them, the Great Journey is simply a cleansing from humans? If that were the case they would want to go make sure that no other humans can be reborn afterwards. Perhaps that is why Regret went there, to kill the embryos off before the great journey. We have no real way of knowing for sure that Tartarus' Halo activation was not taking place long after the final cutscene of the Chief saying the worst line in cliffhanger history. Why bother fly through space to Earth, the home planet of the worst species in the galaxy, just to die? Thats like jumping in the sewer with the rats right before the city is blown up. If it is to kill some living humans, thats like setting up rat poison just before the house explodes, it just doesn't make sense. Truth, unless he lies about the Great Journey to his followers, wants to die, so we can rule out going to the ark to save himself. All he could really be doing is setting up for the next generation.

Or maybe he just wants to appologize for killing everyone.
