In Response To: Marathon Symbol Theory (Jäger) : now i'm stumped.
Well, IF halo and marathon take place in the same (or similar) universe, and similarly IF marathon and pathways take place in the same (or similar) universe, we can recall the jjaro's solution to the sleeping god/wrkncacknter -- once you put it to sleep they would appear a bit later on and provide more permanent security measures. I don't know about you, but I'd say a military cyborg capable of saving the universe from the release of a sleeping god by finding and altering a timeline where the god is captured, was a pretty damn effective preventative measure. If we think about it this way, the similarity of the logos slots together nicely: *Jjaro=forerunners (Jjaro is spanish for water-carrier or similar, and so isn't market-friendly for a worldwide hit like Halo. 'Forerunners' is nice and neutral) *Jjaro formed or put into effect the UESC/UNSC as we know it, and promoted exploration of the Mjolnir/Spartan projects. *UESC/UNSC adopted as their logo a jjaro glyph (perhaps simplified). *Therefore, when the player visits Halo, they see glyphs and logos similar to the UESC/UNSC logo. [z] PS Re: the theories that the forerunner could be one creature -- this slots in nicely with my theory that the Jjaro are some form of collective like the s'pht. Will I repost it? |
