Talk:Epilogue (Halo 4 level)

The Didact's dialogue at the end seems to be from his trial after the first Human-Forerunner war and not after his defeat by John. This line in particular seems to reinforce this:

"I stand before you. Accused of the sin of ensuring Forerunner ascendancy. Of attempting to save us from this fate where we are forced to... recede..."

After the first conflict with the Humans Didact was put on trial for crimes against the Mantle and thus why he was in a cryptum at the beginning of the Greg Bear novels.

 * True, but you have to wonder about this line: "We squander eons in the darkness, while they seize our triumphs for their own." It sure sounds like he's talking about how humanity has been reverse-engineering their artifacts. Before the Halos fired there's no place where this instance could be easily set. Overall the matter is highly nebulous and debatable. Tuckerscreator (stalk ) 13:27, 24 November 2012 (EST)
