I guess he was just chilling watching the Covies, that think of him as a god, throw his planet into a sun?
“Don’t worry dude I’ve got another one”
No but really, where was he during Season 1 Spartan Ops, surely he would have been there and not just sat idle for 6 months after his failed attack on earth.
He had better things to do
Probably in Forerunner custody if the Epilogue is meant to be him making a speech in the present.
Remember when his symbol was sighted on an iceberg, butterfly, and in London?
We see it again in the last episode.
Didact is coming!
The didact…and the chief…and Del Rio…seriously where the heck did they all go too?
In the CGI of Episode 10, his logo showed up. Jul was letting the Didact know it’s time to go.
In Chapter 2 of Episode 10, when the Prometheans first show up, Miller says to Crimson “Looks like you’re making someone upset.”
That’s the only two times he’s in Spartan Ops.

Or its just that his symbol appears when Requiem’s failsafe is activated.

Why not Jul?
> That’s the only two times he’s in Spartan Ops.
Both of which are debatable.
> In the CGI of Episode 10, his logo showed up. Jul was letting the Didact know it’s time to go.
I think that just refects Jul’s status as the Didact’s hand.
Probably off somewhere else in the galaxy plotting his return.
Busy telling people it’s not the force.
Kicking himself for monologuing when he could’ve just dropped the Chief into the Slipspace rupture below the bridge.

Chief has a pretty BA thruster pack… I think he would have made it back on the light bridge.
Del Rio demoted for leaving MC on Requiem.
MC and Didact are on Earth, one and the same.
Just how I have seen things.

That speech is also in one of the Terminal videos.
We have no way of knowing where that Slipspace portal led to, or if he even survived it. He could be stranded on a barren planet, or floating somewhere in empty space.
As for Chief and Del Rio
Chief is on Earth for whatever reason. But mainly, the man deserves like a year off from duty at this point.
Del Rio was placed under arrest during the Campaign for abandonning the Chief and not trying to stop the Didact. Apparently command didn’t take too kindly to it once Infinity had gotten back to Earth.

All of this
Considering that the Portal was made for composed memories, and the nature of Forerunner portals, it is likely the Didact was filtered out before he got to Requiem.
Where he went then, is debatable. Leading theories use the Epilogue as proof that the Didact is in custody, taken and standing trial before a council of Forerunners, where he tries to justify his actions.
If he was on Requiem after Halo 4, he wouldn’t let a primitive beast like the Sangheili be messing with his Prometheans or meddling with the Librarian. So its safe to say that he wasn’t there.
The Universe forum has better discussions on that, and existing ones.
He’s like Darth Vader at the end of New Hope spinning around in space. We even destroyed his evil death star!

It is not.

Or in Forerunner custody.
