In Response To: Human history, is it? Fascinating... *sp* (ThePerfectCore) : That's great evidence supporting that the human race built Halo, but that's
No. That's great evidence that GS interprets human history as contained on PoA and is subsequent Forerunner history. It cannot be assumed that the annoying blue ball is correct in his interpretation or that, if you accept the Forerunner-Human link, the history is one of association not actual "Forerunner" history. : Human history - or most of it, anyway - takes place on earth. So what ONE bit
Equally plausible, if not moreso, is that GS misinterprets HH as literal FH, in which case, in the mind of GS, it's not any particular "bit" which is important -- it's the very fact of the data on PoA constituting, among other things, an entire missing chapter in the historical record. Imagine you were cut off from your family for 20 years stuck on a deserted island and you finally returned home. There wouldn't be any one detail which you would want to know. You'd want to catch up on everything. From GS' POV, GS is that survivor, and in this analogy, Halo is the deserted island. : The location of earth. : Great. So now we have TABB floating around space, just waiting for a Covenant
What makes you think GS will give the information to the 'other races'? He functions according to protocol. We do not know if "revenge" is in his psychological profile. He seems a bit enamored of himself and clueless in many ways, but he doesn't appear to be that spiteful. He's just doing what he's suppose to do.
