Talk:97,495 BCE

From Halopedia, the Halo wiki

Innacurate[edit]

This page is highly inaccurate and therefore I think it should be removed. The interrogation between the Primordial and Mendicant Bias did take 43 years, but that's just when the Halo goes rouge. A lot happens in between the Halo going rouge and the Array firing. Not only that, but we don't even know that the Array was activated in 100,000 BCE. Guilty Spark says 101-something years, but that's all. Vegerot goes RAWR! Vegerot (talk) 17:10, 15 January 2012 (EST)!

I disagree. The Halo Encyclopedia (2009 edition) Timeline clearly states:
"100,043 BCE: The Forerunners create Mendicant Bias, an exceptionally strong combat AI that is built to battle the Flood Gravemind. Mendicant Bias is intended to lure the Gravemind out of the Maginot Sphere long enough for the biomass of the Flood to be destroyed. The Librarian, a female Forerunner responsible for saving sample species, comes upon an early Human species on what will come to be known as Earth. The entire species is removed from the surface of the planet and held on the Ark. Later, before the firing of the Halo Array, the Librarian is trapped and cannot reach the Ark before the Array fires."
Granted, this does seem to be somewhat out of date (it seems to imply this was the first interaction between humans and Forerunners), however it is not explicitly against canon, and the date is very clear.--Emblem 1.jpg Rusty - 112 20:32, 15 January 2012 (EST)
The Halo Encyclopedia: The Definitive Guide to the Halo Universe also "clearly states" that there are Honor Guard Councilors and the Scout and Rouge armors are identical. Vegerot goes RAWR! Vegerot (talk) 00:03, 16 January 2012 (EST)!

Kinda. We learn about the Halo going "rouge" 43 year ago, and then the book says Bornstellar lives back at his house for 3 years. Vegerot goes RAWR! Vegerot (talk) 11:09, 16 January 2012 (EST)!

Source for 3 years? I recall it was just an unspecified amount of time, perhaps a few weeks, months at the most. I don't think it would've taken that long for the Council to react to the Master Builder's misuse of the Halo ring and bring him to the trial. He did spend three years in his stepfamily on Edom though, but that was before the events of the novel. --Jugus (Talk | Contribs) 12:23, 16 January 2012 (EST)

Maybe that was it, I knew something was three years. But I know that he was there for at least a year. Also, Faber might have fled to hide from the Council, and it took that long to find him. Vegerot goes RAWR! Vegerot (talk) 13:19, 16 January 2012 (EST)!
