Talk:Halo: Glasslands

Based on information from the SDCC 2011 Panel, it appears that some of the rehabilitated washouts from the Class I SPARTAN-II's (as well as Dr. Halsey) are being included in Glasslands. Where/how should this be included?

Other characters
Do we have any confirmation that Fred, Kelly, or Linda will be in Glasslands?--ハローファン (H1234-NET) 00:39, 28 July 2011 (EDT)
 * They'll most definitely be in the novel; but we'll wait until we get more solid info, an excerpt, or the novel's release to add them.
 * Alright sounds good.--ハローファン (H1234-NET) 00:57, 28 July 2011 (EDT)
 * In addition to my previous question, seeing that there is a mission to Sanghelios, could Arbiter Thel Vadam make an appearance?--ハローファン (H1234-NET) 18:38, 11 August 2011 (EDT)
 * Yes he COULD but we don't know if they will--210.56.81.176 23:15, 11 August 2011 (EDT)
 * Okay, but please don't use caps. I intrepet that as yelling at me.--ハローファン (H1234-NET) 23:17, 11 August 2011 (EDT)

Rehabilitated SPARTAN-II
Is Sarah Osbun the "rehabilitated SPARTAN-II candidate, previously thought to have been washed out"? -- Nup (T) 08:02, 28 July 2011 (EDT)
 * That would seem most likely. The plot summary needs an update with info from the podcast. --Jugus (Talk  | Contribs ) 08:11, 28 July 2011 (EDT)

Another New SPARTAN-II?
Anyone else really think throwing a new Spartan-II at the already broken list of S-II's is a bit much? And there's also the issue of the meeting with The Arbiter and Kaidon thingy taking place in January, 2553. That means that Arbiter was found on Earth, taken back to Sanghellios by Vadum without Vadum seeing the planet, then back to Earth for the memorial, then back to his homeworld.

 * Naomi-010 is the new S-II, forgot to name her in there. ^ SomethingDifferent 04:10, 13 October 2011 (EDT)
 * Maybe another rehabilitated Spartan-II? Would seem logical if Halsey actually got to saving deceased/malformed Spartans. What I'm more curious about is how Naomi survived Reach. Even with the 25 gathered there, the 3 of Grey team and all of the KIA'd Spartans, there should have been even more survivors then. --Thijsbos 04:10, 17 October 2011 (EDT)
 * Regarding the Arbiter not seeing Earth the first time around (during his rescue at the end of Halo 3), it doesn't seem that unusual. With the war literally just having ended, would any former member of the Covenant be safe on Earth?  (Baring, of course, whomever ONI has locked up somewhere.)  The delay would allow some things to settle down.  AarrowOM 14:05, 26 October 2011 (EDT)

Easter Eggs
There appears to be a possible easter egg regarding Halo Waypoint. Traviss mentions several times a news agency called "Waypoint." I, at least, think it's an easter egg, but would like other opinions. AarrowOM 14:02, 26 October 2011 (EDT)

I first thought that too, when one of the quotes mentions "Waypoint Nine News". Col.  Snipes  4  50  14:05, 26 October 2011 (EDT)
