Further evidence to suggest that the Forerunner and human race are one and the same manifests itself in one of the final cutscenes of Halo: Combat Evolved. Guilty Spark, upon scanning the files of human history aboard the severely damaged Pillar of Autumn, remarks on, "''Our'' lost time." This subtle distinction, coupled with the knowledge that guilty spark refers to Master Chief and Miranda Keyes as the "Reclaimer" and acts as if they have met before, allows one to reasonably conclude that the human race is all that remains of the Forerunner. It's incredibly ironic, especially when one considers how the Covenant have essentially worshipped Forerunner technology and, at the same time, are driven by their dogmatic beliefs to eradicate the human race. | Further evidence to suggest that the Forerunner and human race are one and the same manifests itself in one of the final cutscenes of Halo: Combat Evolved.

I'm pretty sure that the Forerunners ''are'' the ancestors of humans, because didn't the forerunners also stay on the Ark to be protected?

Other evidence: The Gravemind says "A father's sin pass to his son", what Guilty Spark says has already been pointed out many times, and the Prophet of Truth himself says "You are were not worthy of their Great Journey then, you are the ones they left behind! You are not worthy now!" Or something similar to that (that's probably innacurate in words used and order of what he said, but the general information is all there) suggesting that they were the surviving Forerunners that renewed their civilization. Also, when you think about Noah and the Flood, when he built the Ark, He and his family had to start civilization over again, but he didn't start it with a different race of animals or anything, so if there is any relation (which it seems there is) then that biblical reference hints that the Forerunners and the Humans are the same, genetically, but possess no knowledge of their past as the most advanced race in the galaxy. | Other evidence: The Gravemind says "A father's sin pass to his son", what Guilty Spark says has already been pointed out many times, and the Prophet of Truth himself says "You are were not worthy of their Great Journey then, you are the ones they left behind!

In the Bible, God floods the Earth to cleanse it of all life, which has grown evil and wicked. However, he saves a group of righteous humans and two of of all animals by telling them to build and seek refuge in a ship, called the Ark. Thus it is a possibility that in Halo, the Ark is a structure or device that shields those using it from the effects of the rings' activation and the Flood. The humans on Earth might have descended from those who were protected by the Ark during the first activation of the rings. This theory is purely speculative of course. | ||

*There was also the fact that you are NOT 350,000 lightyears away. You're 2000000000000000000 lightyears away. And galaxies are far larger than most people think; even as far as the Ark is, the Milky Way would be much larger in the sky. So therefore, it can't be the Milky Way.

Nope. That's it for the Master Chief. There's [[Halo Wars]] and [[Halo: Chronicles]] in the works, but that's it for now. '''[[User:Specops306|<font color=purple>Specops306 | Nope.

It mentions nothing about the falling apart ring destroying the Ark. | It mentions nothing about the falling apart ring destroying the Ark. Further given the Ark's shear size I don't believe that the pieces of Installation 04 II could destroy it. Damage it yes, but not destroy it. As for the Halo effect, the cleansing blast the rings fire. In Halo: Legends we saw that it did no damage to anything, except The Flood, and all other Sentient Life not protected.--[[User talk:Subman758|Subman758]] 04:29, March 9, 2010 (UTC) | ||
