Jilly, Great summary, much more concise than mine :) I only had a couple of points where it seemed interpretation trumped pure summary: 1) I happen to think you're right, that the Prophets do know what Halo really does, and this is their true aim. However, I think Halo 2 stops short of actually saying this, and it might end up being wrong. 2) Although we see MC tell the Arbiter what Halo does, and accuses the Prophets of lying, we don't really have any evidence at all that the Arbiter, the Spec Ops commander, or the other Elites and Grunts believe this. For all we know, they may be angry at the Prophets for removing them from their honored place, and resent the suborning Brutes. But I don't see a rejection of the Covenant's religion from the Elites just yet. |
