S'pht Royalty | ||

These are some thoughts and questions I typed up while looking through some stuff. These are not theories, they are the beginning of theories. I am mostly looking for pure, honest facts right now. Quotes from terminals or the Bungie elite. Feel free to add your thoughts or any information you can find. The main focus is on the S'pht Royalty and what it means to be S'pht Royalty and how the royalty related to the Jjaro and the rest of the S'pht. Once I have enough raw data I will probably begin some theory proposals. Again, this is extremely rough and mostly questions that have no real answers (yet). I figured some of you have a few thoughts on the subject, however. :) These are some relevant links: http://marathon.bungie.org/story/sphttermonconfound.html

Is a S'pht the same as S'pht "royalty"? Are they the same, uh, species? Are the S'pht royalty the same as a Jjaro? Bob's Big Date:
I believe that in their time of need these
Underground with you are two old S'pht
The royalty were "Ancient S'pht". What is average life-cycle of a S'pht? S'pht and S'pht royalty seem the same basic "thing" here. If the S'pht royalty are failed Jjaro, what are non-royal S'pht? Perhaps they are not the same thing (?species). They can be killed. The clans were "joined". Is this allied, or is this literally joined? Are these clans in sync with each other, or do they become one clan? "Yrro became an angry master, bleeding for

Does "broke" mean sectioned off and categorized or broken? Was it like sorting marbles or breaking a piece of glass? Compare with the "joined" above. The royalty can guide. They are intended to lead? Why do the Jjaro leave these "failed Jjaro" in charge? "The royalty of the clans have shared their

We know the truth of the Eleventh Clan,
Each "Master". The royalty are the Masters of the S'pht clans. Is this a master-servant setup? Are they the controllers, the foci? Are they rulers, or are they something else entirely? Do they tell the S'pht what to do, or do they move and act using the S'pht as members of what we consider a body? Is the unity undoing the breaking that the Jjaro did? "Come and Take Your Medicine" "I am F'tha, S'pht-compiler, your deeds
Freedom will mean nothing without royalty.
More powerful machines than what? Than themselves? Than the older machines that the Pfhor used? Than the royalty? The royalty are the minds of the S'pht. These failed Jjaro are minds? What would a successful Jjaro be? What made the royalty fail? What, in this failure, made them suitable to rule (?control) the S'pht? "The royalty (?mind) must exist because we

You kill me, but free the unit-whole." The mind must exist because the body exists? Are the Pfhor overpowering the S'pht royalty? The unit-whole could overpower the Pfhor, but not while the S'pht are broken. Do the royalty exist while the S'pht are being enslaved in by the Pfhor? Do the S'pht contain the royalty? Where are the royalty?
