: That's a really great way of explaining things and it really makes a lot more
: sense than what has been posted before in the Volunteers series.
: Unfortunately, it's not consistent with the story that Bungie tells. At
: the end of Ne Cede Malis, there is mention of another ship that you should
: get to and -guess what, you're next on Tycho's ship. And then at the start
: of Rise Robot Rise - the level you refer to - Tycho begins by saying that
: you came around sooner than the scientist thought you would (and that he
: would have the scientist executed). This implies that the marine was
: captured and conditioned, and that this all took place fairly soon after
: Ne Cede Malis. I really like your idea, but it's not the one Bungie used.

Rise Robot Rise was another universe, another place, another time than "Ne Cede Malis".

"find yourself... starting back"

My theory is that it's a universe divided. Ne Cede Malis is what happens after the trih xeem was fired, and the W'rk throws the universe into complete chaos. Durandal describes it as;

"...entirely terrible, mindless, obeying rules that I don't comprehend. And it is hungry."

And Tfear (in the transmission from the manual) tells High Command;

"It was as if the universe had forgotten its own rules."

So we're playing by the W'rk's rules. And we're on the Jjaro's side in this game.
