Why High Charity Can't Go to the Ark

[url=https://docs.google.com/document/d/163ACM83IdR65Sf6-cj6w3fDouCnHesm7eJDZ1cN03Qs/edit?usp=sharing][b][u]Sources:[/u][/b] [u]“Diameter: 72.79 miles (117km)"* -Page 146, Portal at Voi, Halo EVG “Diameter: 216 miles (348km)” -Page 93, High Charity, Halo EVG[/u] [b][u]Math:[/u][/b] Start: 1/X = 117/348 Cross Multiply: 117X = 348 Divide by 117: 117X/117 = 348/117 Simplify and Finish: X = 2.97 [b][u]Conclusion:[/u][/b] Based on the math equation, if we round up, we can say that the portal to the Ark is ⅓ the diameter of High Charity’s diameter. There has yet been an instance in Halo’s canon where a Forerunner slipspace portal has allowed an object larger than it to pass through it. Therefore, we can not make an accurate inference/suggestion/conclusion that objects larger than a Forerunner portal can travel through it. If such a conclusion is made anyway, then an answer needs to exist as to why the Forerunners waste energy on opening portals larger than the object that is passing through it. (See: Halo 4) This irrefutably means that it is implausible for High Charity to have used the portal at Voi to travel to the Ark. ---------------------------------------------------------------- [i]*The Halo EVG page titled “Portal at Voi” states it is referring directly to the slipspace portal, and not the machine generating it. “COMPOSISTION: Slipspace field generated by a massive gateway machine” -Page 146, Portal at Voi, Halo EVG[/i][/url]

  • Admirals, you should post all the various reasons folks gave trying to put together how High Charity ended up where it did to 343. As it stands I think it's safe to say shit was so deconstructed in this thread that we may have boxed 343 into a writing corner. Any move they make now will have to be a retconn.
