In Response To: Gr'ndl Prime vs. Pfhor Prime (Philtron)

: So, I noticed that in M:Infinity the planet Gr'ndl Prime is mentioned. Based
: on the context of its use and the use of "prime" in the name it
: seems to imply that it might be the Pfhor home planet.

: However, whenever one of the mods for Marathon mention the Pfhor homeworld
: they seem to always call it Pfhor Prime.

: Does anyone have any insight into this?

Again I think a lack of canon prevents any meaningful conclusion.

I've never interpreted Gr'ndl Prime as the 'Phfor homeworld' but rather some planet/moon/god forsaken rock where slaves are taken for conditioning. A race of slavers such as the Pfhor would most likely have these. Should anything go wrong (i.e. slave revolt) they nuke it to the bed rock.

I would imagine the Pfhor would not want unconditioned slaves anywhere near their homeworld given past experiences. In the Marathon 2 manual there is a line that goes:

"In its glory years, Battle Group Three had been known throughout the Empire; decorated in every battle anyone remembered from the Wars of Imperium, for turning back the loyalists at Tahrm's Gap and holding the approaches to the Pfhor homeworld itself during the slave revolt of the Nakh."

Is there a single Nakh alive today?

Cheers
