In Response To: Re: The lost human colonies in halo. (Rick Blaine)

: Lots of stuff never got mentioned in the game, but I thought _fer sure_ that
: the existence of the colonies, & the fact that nobody could explain
: where they came from was mentioned in passing (like 3 sentences worth) in
: FoR.

: I must have been wrong.

The colonies were in the Cortana messages, which, since Bungie is very strict about what is published Halo backstory content, may be taken as a legitimate piece of backstory (if we disreguard the fact that early Halo was a real-time strategy with what can be assumed to be at least a very similar story to the current halo).

The colonies aren't mentioned in the books, but the use of flash-cloning to replace pinched humans is.

It's not too much of a leap of faith to assume that the technologies are related on some level... could be that whole outside jjaro/forerunner influence thing that is starting to tie everything nicely.

Can anyone say 'chronosynclastic infindibulum'?

Didn't think so :D
