Can someone clear this up for me? At the end of ODST after the Epilogue part with Johnson and the Engineer, it shows The Prophet of Truth with some Engineers and Phantoms over/excavating something. What is it?
Probably they are looking at the forunner area in the background, maybe they are looking at the Ark.
Supposedly it’s the Portal to the Ark. Technically the whole point of invading New Mombassa was to excavate the Forerunner artefact, later known to us as the Portal to the Ark. New Mombassa, I assume, is later destroyed at the end of Halo 3: ODST since Truth’s Fleet starts to Glass the city and Voi in Halo 3 is near New Mombassa. I can’t confirm this for certain because I simply cannot remember if it is the Portal to the Ark or not although I have always assumed that is what it is based on the lore at the time.

That’s correct. ODST takes place halfway through the story of Halo 2 and partway into the story of Halo 3.
So that ship entering slipspace and causing the entire squad to lose each other is the same one In Amber Clad flies super close to in order to use the same slipspace tunnel.
The ships you see glassing Earth during the last level of ODST are the ones that Keyes is referring to when she says, “… Then, they started digging.”
Sorry for the possibly unnecessary extra stuff up there, but I figured I’d be somewhat thorough.
Thanks to all you guys fo such a quick response it makes total sense I just wasn’t sure
its the portal to the ark that opens up in the first flood mission in H3

This right here. I was going to say that but looks like someone beat me to it.
It all makes sense now…
