Curiously, the Librarian states that the Didact, locked in his Cryptum, will be the "only living thing in this galaxy", even though live specimens of the various species indexed in the [[Conservation Measure]] were stored on numerous shield worlds (particularly the [[conservation sphere]]s), along with the samples of the Flood held aboard the Halo installations.

The very nature of the terminal narrative being drawn from the Domain is suspect in light of ''Silentium''{{'}}s revelation that the Domain would be destroyed by the firing of the Halos, along with all [[Precursor]] architecture.{{Ref/Novel|Halo: Silentium|Page=322-323}} In the ''Halo 4'' level ''[[Requiem (level)|Requiem]]'', Cortana notes that a terminal is "caught in a loop" trying to access the Domain, suggesting that the Domain may truly have been unavailable and the terminal videos are in fact locally-hosted copies of the information. Regardless, the name of the achievement "Contact the Domain" implies a connection to the Domain itself.
