: The beastiarium entry on the prophets seems odd compared with the others -- : it's the only one where the speaker seems less than sure about what is : being reported -- why does it say that the prophets claim their homeworld : was destroyed, rather than just saying that it was destroyed? : Should we assume the prophets may be lying when they say this -- as the : beastiarium says, why would they be reluctant to admit this fact if it : were actually true? : So is it possible that there are a whole bunch of prophets out there (the : Stoics) still on the original prophet homeworld and the Covenant-based : prophets are lying about it? : Less likely -- we know from the terminals that the forerunner had the ability : to cause stars to prematurely collapse. Is it possible that the prophets : in the forerunner dreadnought were able to cause their homeworld's star to : go nova? But it seems unlikely that they would have mastery over that much : of the dreadnought's abilities at that point. : Anyway, I'm not sure if there is anything in the account of the Prophet Civil : War in Contact Harvest that contradicts this -- I loaned my copy to a : friend. : Thoughts? : Is this terribly old? Without getting into spoilers, yes, Contact Harvest gives us some of the lowdown on what happened to the Prophets homeworld.
