Talk:Xalanyn

Xalanyn
Xalanyn is a another name of endless.
 * Came here to say this as well. It certainly seems like this is their species' name, as told in a Banished audio log: Archaeological Findings #3, Xalanyn; Despondant Pyre: "How could this have happened? How could we not known of this till now? Xalanyn. A species previously uncatalogued. Xalanyn. A problem that must be solved. Did my makers know of them? How could they have kept this from me? I have requested council. Soon, I will know how to proceed." --The Ragin Pagan (talk) 09:51, December 12, 2021 (EST)


 * You're probably right. However, it still hasn't been outright confirmed, so personally, I'd be cautious. For all we know, the Xalanyn and the Endless could be separate species that both survived Halos' firing. The purpose of the Xalanyn being mentioned in the audio logs might have been foreshadowing to establish what the Forerunner remnants did to species that survived the Halo rings. -- MisterRandom2 (talk) 15:30, December 13, 2021 (EST)

When were they imprisoned?
Doesn't the legendary ending suggest that the Xalanyn were imprisoned before/as Offensive Bias was being deployed, i.e. before the war ended? or am I misunderstanding something? --Marenello1159 (talk) 04:46, December 13, 2021 (EST)
 * They were imprisoned after the Halo rings were fired. The legendary ending gives the exact year, which takes place after the Halos were fired. Also Offensive Bias is known to have survived the Flood War, so there's no reason he couldn't be deployed again. --MisterRandom2 (talk) 15:26, December 13, 2021 (EST)
