After seeing halo’s latest video on youtube we see that somehow Beamish has survived the attack on the Corbulo Academy from Curcninus-IV and now has suddenly appeared right now in 2014.
My main guess is that while Beamish was going into his janitor closet to retrieve his mop, he stumbled across a time machine that would transport him back in time from 2526 to 2014. He would then arrive at 343Industries where he would get enslaved to be their very own janitor where he would be forced to mop ice cubes.
So what do you think of this theory? Is this a possible hint that 343 are adding time traveling to the Halo fiction?
It could be Hamish’s great-great-great-great-great…-great-grandson. Though I quite like the idea of him being a time traveler. Maybe he has a Forerunner mop with precursor powers? Space Mop!
Either way, I’m just glad to see him again
But what if he cleaned up 343’s mess before he ever went to Corbulo Academy? Maybe he time traveled forward in time to Corbulo Academy after he cleaned up 343’s mess.
Maybe he simply doesn’t age and there was no time travel involved at all.
Of course, time travel may of always existed in the Halo universe and we are all seeing the future as the our universe and the Halo universe may be the same thing.

I think that was a joke. The janitor thing was a joke, the challenge was not.

And though people dont like it to be canon(it is unless stated directly its not). I love bees is based around a AI that got sent back to 2004. That is asleep pretty much in the I Love Bees website right now.
Mother of god, I have seen the light! that is a thing of beauty and should be treated as a sacred relic, imagine if the covenant had found that on one of the Halo’s, how different things would have been…

But do we know if the Forerunners had control over Time Travel? At least some?

Slipspace can be seen as some form of time travel. Bending space to make two points meet, negating the need to travel there manually.
But full on time travel, like the TARDIS? Can’t say, don’t really think the forerunners did.

The Forerunners can manipulate time, in a way.
Time inside of places like Trevelyan when in slipspace is significantly altered.
In First Strike, a slipspace crystal intersected an event path with Installation 04, allowing the events of Installation 04 to take place two weeks in the past, enabling the Chief to return to Reach and pick up survivors and the crystal at a specific time.

I guess you meant to say two weeks in the future. That’s awesome, I guess I should’ve kept reading First Strike; Though I still don’t regret finishing Greg Bear’s novels instead. Buy why does all the cool -Yoink- come from slipspace? I mean, look at what slipspace did to the halo ring, it put a clean hole right through it as shown in the Halo Nightfall vidoc at their PAX panel recently. IIRC, it’s melting point is 100,000,000 degrees, so how the hell did the Didact survive such a blast? Adamantium armour?
Even more reasons for me to rant about Brian Reed.
The Primordial was killed within a device that manipulates time known as Timelock, and then there’s ilovebees where a fragment of Melissa was set back to 2004.
I’m not 100% sure if my facts are correct, but I read a theory somewhere that time travel is only relevant to the time in which it was created. For example, if humans were to develop a time machine (like TARDIS as someone said) people could only travel as far back as the invention itself. Obviously little is know about this, because we are quite a ways away from being able to comprehend the scientific notion behind time travel, but just something interesting I wanted to bring to the table.
Personally, I’d prefer time travel to stay out of Halo’s canon for the sake of convenience. The games lore expands deep enough already, and the last thing I’d want to see is some confusing plot twist brought about by time travel. But hey that’s just me, I would admit that going back in time to see the precursors could be pretty cool tho.
> Beamish is a precursor, he doesn’t time travel he’s just immortal
Actually that kind of twist would be interesting. The last of the precursors (or something). He never really helps directly, he is just there to offer philosophical advice before a major event.
