Lord of Admirals' 2015 Halo Lore Q&A

[b][u]Previous Lore Q&A's[/u][/b] [url=https://www.bungie.net/en/Forum/Post/60978352/0/0]Lord of Admirals' 2013 Halo Lore Q&A[/url] [url=https://www.bungie.net/en/Forum/Post/65368491/0/0]Lord of Admirals' 2014 Halo Lore Q&A[/url] [b][u]Disclaimer[/u][/b] I am in no way affiliated with 343 Industries or Microsoft Studios. Answers I give are stated in the most accurate way possible. However, this does not indicate what I say is canon. The answers I give are entirely subject to change based on the emergence of new lore or retcons. [b][u]Guidelines[/u][/b] 1.

[b][u]Final Note:[/u][/b] As always, I enjoy and love answering Halo related questions. The fact that the previous Q&A thread lasted a full year is incredible and makes me happy that a significant portion of the Halo community still exists on Bungie.net. So, ask away!

  • Ok, so all we know about the Warden Eternal is that he's a Forerunner A.I construct, he uses constraint fields like the Ur-Didact did, he's able to do a high-speed dash attack to catch enemies off guard, it's a "Keeper of The Domain and her secrets", and it wields a double-edged hard light longsword. But, there are still so many questions. Was he a Warrior-Servant of the Promethean rate that got composed? Is it a singular entity or one of many so-called wardens? Again, so many questions, but so little answers.

        • This has been bothering me since the Halo 5 E3 campaign demo. Why are the Elites, who are affiliated with the Swords Of Sanghelios (The Arbiter's faction), wearing the "storm" armor? I thought that the SOS Elites wore the "Minor" armor like they did in Halo 2, 3, and Halo 2 Anniversary. Heck, is the "Minor" armor still in use? I'm kinda confused.

            I have a theory about the Guardians. Maybe they were designed during the Forerunner-Human war as an "ultimate" version of the War Sphinx. Then, after the war, they were repurposed to be a form of Flood control, destroying flood infested ships and making sure that the parasite doesn't spread across the planet to form a Key Mind. But, unfortunately, they failed, and the Halo Array was put into service. That's my theory. The Guardians are possibly Forerunner WMDs like the Halo rings.

              • 1.) Did the events of Ghosts of Onyx take place during the events of Halo 2? 2.) Are there any active Spartan IIIs left that might have joined the Spartan VI program? I'm not sure if Tom or Lucy would want any more combat exposure. 3.) Was Team Katana ever recovered or are they still inside of the Micro Dyson Sphere?

                • Didn't the Didact fall into a composer and of so is it possible we will fight him but as a soldier or knight?

                  • [quote]So what's up with the architecture on Delta Halo? Why is it so old looking yet also clashes with some newer buildings? Cortana mentions this but I don't really have any idea what the lore behind it is. Also: Do you think if Cortana didn't sacrifice herself and they returned to Halsey that there would be some way to cure her Rampancy? I would think not... But idk. Oh and what happened to Mshak? Do you think if there will be a next season that we'll hear about that? What do you think happened to him? And could you give me an understanding of what happened on that last episode? How was that data a set-up? How would have ONI done that? Is there a UNSC flying vehicle for Halo 5 yet to be announced or am I just getting my hopes up? And finally: where did the covenant get the idea of the Great Journey? I'm well aware of the Forrunner's Great Journey, but how did the Covenant hear about that?[/quote]

                            • I have a bit of an out of context question, but here it is: Why are any of you guys here? I respect your knowledge and your points on Halo's various plot holes and problems, but many of the commenters seem devoted to talking about how much [i]better[/i] 343i is compared to Bungie as far as storytelling goes. They constantly demean the original developers of the series with a disdain that makes me question why they bother playing Halo at all. If 343 is so much better, then that's your opinion. But you need to consider the fact, wether you are a Bungie-era-Halo hater or not, that Bungie created the series, and also created the groundwork for the story that 343 created. I realize I'm probably stepping on a few toes, but I would appreciate a comment on why this attitude is prevalent.
