Re: Story Shenanigans
Posted By: Captain SparkDate: 1/22/08 2:50 p.m.

In Response To: Story Shenanigans (Cody Miller)


: Okay. There are still a few things that are bugging me about the Halo story
: ark . I will confess that I have not yet finished contact harvest, or
: fully analyzed all the terminals, so if it's answered there, then just let
: me know without spoiling it.

: Regret's premature arival: First of all, why was this "premature"?
: Why was it that Truth had to wait before going to Earth? Why did the
: Covenant not expect humans on Earth? It seemed strange then, but even
: stranger now.

: The Covenant Construct: What was the covenant construct Cortana mentions in
: High Charity? It was "fighting back" and "unusually
: formidable". She specifically says it's a covenant construct. So…
: what was it?

: Last time you asked me: What am I supposed to make of 343GS's speech on Two
: betrayals, when he tells the MC (or Cortana as some people think):
: "Last time, you asked me, if it was my choice, would I do it? Having
: considerable time to ponder your query, my answer has not changed."

I can't answer the other questions but I believe I can answer your "Last time you asked me" question.

Guilty Spark thinks every human is a Reclaimer. Guilty Spark had to have seen another Reclaimer before he encountered the Master Chief on installation 4, and maybe that other Human asked the question that Guilty Spark was referring too?

If memory serves, in the Flood book, the MC found a dead Marine Sergent in the Library. I believe the Master Chief said something like "you must have been one tough SOB to have survived this far". Maybe this Marine asked Spark the question first?

Remember in Halo 2 when Guilty Spark said "please use caution, this Reclaimer is delicate", referring to Miranda Keyes. Spark called Miranda Keyes a Reclaimer. There had to have been another Human/Reclaimer before Guilty Spark found the Chief.

Just an opinion!
