i have posted this thread before but its lying under a pile of other threads and i feel this is a good question.
my question is which of these to races do you think we will be fighting.
if you think none then post what you think down bellow.
also if you want to say what you think these races “roles” will be in the halo universe in the reclaimer trilogy then feel free to post what you think bellow as well.
Something directly connected to the Precursors if not them.
Precursors or some entire new evil.
Seriously? Did no one listen to Spark in the last terminal???
Its Forerunner guys. Didact and the Forerunner.
yea i know but remember the timeless one i think he will be part of it in some way.
> yea i know but remember the timeless one i think he will be part of it in some way.
I think he could play a part in Halo 6 or something, but for now we’re fighting Forerunners.

Right. Explain to me how the Forerunners are an “ancient evil” according to your theory.
It is either directly related to the Precursors or something new entirely.

If forerunners hate us to the point that they would start killing us, then why would they also make us the reclaimers? Your point is stupid, it’s obviously precursors.

READ THE DAMN BOOKS!!!
Seriously you are highly uninformed since the Didact felt sorry for attacking the humans because he thought the Flood was an excuse and not real.
On top of that is Didact past-Flood war, Bornstellar who is friends with Chakas and Riser, 2 HUMANS.
I’m more guessing it has something to do with that ship that crashed on the ring.

Definitely. All we know of the ship is when it crash landed on Halo (around -38,000 BCE) which can help us understand just how ancient this evil really is.
Also, people should start encrypting the distress signal. The symbols were unfamiliar but I do think we can crack them somehow. Or else, why would that whole segment even be important? Maybe we can crack it knowing that it loops every 72 seconds…
Also, the beginning of Primordium has the science team hearing a signal that loops every 64 seconds- maybe they are connected? That would explain that the UNSC explored the remains of Installation 04 and found the monitor that was once Chakas. All theoretical of course, and I still highly support the Abject Testament theory. Oh well…

I have read them thank you very much. But the fact still remains that the terminals are foreshadowing Halo 4 and in the last and most important one Guilty Spark says he wants to get Prometheans and the Didact to fight MC. And the Forerunners (an ancient enemy of humanity) don’t like it when you -Yoink- with their rings
PLAY THE DAMN GAMES!!!
I direly hope we fight the Precursors. And I hope that they’re scarier and more terrifying than the enemies in Halo 2 - Reach.

That’s all well and good, except for the little bit about spark getting blown up by the chief.
I do think that we may possibly be fighting a new form of enemy, most likely Precursors or an entire different type of antagonist. I think we got a glimpse at the enemy in the CEA terminal showcasing the crashed ship on Installation 04.
I voted OTHER because I think we’ll be fighting the Precursors and the Flood.

Thats irrelevant the fact is the terminals are connected to Halo 4 and in the last one Spark talks about the Forerunners and the Didact fighting the Chief and the Didacts symbol shows up. 343 wouldn’t make that the last terminal without it being important and related to Halo 4.
And to all you idiots saying “its dedinitely Precursors,” why/how could it be? There’s only one left and its probably dead by now. And what makes anything we’ve been given about Halo 4 even remotely relate to Precursors. Not to mention a Precursor would kick John’s -Yoink-.
Looks like someone needs to be put in their place.
> I have read them thank you very much. But the fact still remains that the terminals are foreshadowing Halo 4 and in the last and most important one Guilty Spark says he wants to get Prometheans and the Didact to fight MC.
Are you sure that just wasn’t Spark’s rationality blinded by the defense protocol of the rings? We know the rings will attack any threat, Forerunner included, if something attacks the rings.If the Forerunners had a deep seated hatred for humanity, why didn’t Spark slag Chief on the spot? Why is humanity viewed as Reclaimers? Where is your logic sir?
Further more, did the thought of Spark speaking hypothetically not cross your mind? Promethean warriors would save the ring, yet none came. Spark has no knowledge about whether or not the Forerunners survived or not, he thinks they are all dead. Period.
> And the Forerunners (an ancient enemy of humanity) don’t like it when you Yoink! with their rings.

Is that why the Didact was initially opposed to the rings to begin with? He claimed they were terrible weapons and they were used as a last resort for a reason. I doubt they would be overjoyed to see them destroyed, but I doubt they would be pissed such terrible weapons that violate the Mantle were destroyed.
> Thats irrelevant the fact is the terminals are connected to Halo 4 and in the last one Spark talks about the Forerunners and the Didact fighting the Chief and the Didacts symbol shows up. 343 wouldn’t make that the last terminal without it being important and related to Halo 4.
Quick question, who even said Chief is going to fight the Didact? 343 guilty Spark is an unreliable narrator, he is mad because his ring is under attack. Why did that not factor into your analysis?
> And to all you idiots saying “its dedinitely Precursors,” why/how could it be? There’s only one left and its probably dead by now.
Before you call others idiots, I’d love to see your proof. How do you know the Timeless One is dead? How do you know it isn’t him talking through the Gravemind? Seriously, provide proof or shut up.
> And what makes anything we’ve been given about Halo 4 even remotely relate to Precursors.
Like you said with the Didact’s symbol, why introduce it, the Precursors, and not mention it further?
> Not to mention a Precursor would kick John’s -Yoink!-.
So would Forerunners, but you forgot that didn’t you?
My point still stands. WHYWOULD THIS BE THEIR LAST TERMINAL IF IT DIDN’T MATTER???
The Forerunners would be pissed they found out. Here’s a quote from Terminal 8:
343 Guilty Spark: “But if something were to go wrong with one of the Halos, if our tools were ever turned against us… long plans, indeed.”
My first point answers your next question as well.
As for the Timeless One, I said “probably dead” and I see no more evidence backing your claims either. Gravemind is Gravemind. End of story.
Game canon > Book canon. Bungie said this a while back. The Didact has been proven to exist in game canon, however the Precursors have never even been referenced before.
And John would at least have a chance against a Forerunner, luck is on his side.
I want to say Precursors but there said to be only one left so I cant see "them’ as the main enemies. So my guess is going to Forerunners, as some might still be alive in the Shield World.
