Epilogue is the tenth and last level of [[Halo 4]]'s campaign. It does not contain actual gameplay, instead only a cutscene depicting John-117 taking off his MJOLNIR Mark VI and the Didact's speech after his defeat.

Transcript

(Cutscene)

Open on an Earth city. The sound of a Pelican can be heard in the distance.

Cut to within the city. Smoke rises from the streets and there are many destroyed cars.

  • Didact: In this hour of victory, we taste only defeat. I ask why.

Two Pelicans flies over the street.

  • Didact: We are Forerunners, guardians of all that exists. The roots of the galaxy have grown deep under our careful tending. Where there is life, the wisdom of our countless generations has saturated the soil.

The Pelicans land. Several troops come out of it and secure the area. One examines the ground with his instruments.

  • Didact: Our strength is a luminous sun towards which all intelligence blossoms. And the impervious shelter beneath which it has prospered.

Cut to John-117, walking down a hallway.

  • Didact: 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...

Cut to inside a UNSC armory. Numerous personnel and SPARTAN-IVs are seen below.

  • Didact: Humanity stands as the greatest threat in the galaxy.

Cut to SPARTAN-IVs being armored by machines.

  • Didact: Refusing to eradicate them is a fool's gambit.

Sarah Palmer and another S-IV, who is running on a treadmill, turn to see John. The running Spartan almost trips in the process.

  • Didact: We squander eons in the darkness, while they seize our triumphs for their own.

Palmer walks forward, trying to get a better view of John. Cut to John, walking right past her. His size dwarfs hers.

  • Didact: The Mantle of Responsibility, for all things, belongs to Forerunners alone!

John walks to one of the machines, prepared to take off his armor for the first time in years. He steps in it while technicians around him prepare its devices.

  • Didact: Think of my act as you will.

The technicians free the bolts to his arm plates, allowing them to fall off.

  • Didact: But do not doubt the reality.

The machine frees John's chest plate, also allowing it to fall.

  • Didact: The reclamation... has already begun.

John's helmet begins to de-bolt as machines begin to lift it off.

  • Didact: And we are hopeless to stop it.

John's helmet is lifted off. On any difficulty below Legendary, beneath the helmet there is only black. On Legendary, however, John's adult face is revealed for the first time. All that can be seen is his brow, cheekbones, and bridge of his nose, while his eyes are shadowed.
