In Response To: Atlantis and the way things were (scarab) : In Regret, CHAPTER 02: "One Way Ticket": CORTANA: You know, I think : the forerunners built these new structures around the old, to protect : them, to honor them. Pure speculation, mind you. I'd need to make a : thorough survey to be sure. : We never did find out what the deal was with these structures. Its unlikely
: Later: CORTANA: This lake couldn't have been created by volcanic action,
: Another one of Cortana's bizare, this is not a natural formation, statements. : What kind of cataclysm would dig a crater and yet leave the ring intact? : Is it the point of impact of a Flood infested ship or big rock? : But why would there be undamaged temple towers in the middle of the lake?
: It doesn't make sense. : Unless... Its a monument to Atlantis... : If we go back to the pre Halo 3 days, before the Forerunner concept was
: Maybe the old idea was that Forerunner were literally Human or had a colony
: Maybe the Delta Halo Island was a recreation of Atlantis, somewhere near
: The temples were Atlantean structures saved from the cataclysm. Just as a matter of a point of scale here...the entire Delta Halo level from HEV drop to Regret's temple takes place in a squarish area including both lakes and surrounding mountains with about 1,200ft to a side. If the width of Delta Halo was represented by 1024 pixels on your screen, that 1200 pixel length (with that gondola lake a tiny crater within) would be represented as a single pixel. Hardly enough to do any damage to the ring.
