WARNING:THIS IS AN EXCERPT FROM A CLASSIFIED MILITARY INTELLIGENCE FILE, PROTECTED UNDER ONI SECURITY PROTOCOL 99423-396. DISCLOSURE TO THE PUBLIC OR PERSONNEL WITH [GAMMA-2] CLEARANCE OR LESS IS AN OFFENSE PUNISHABLE BY COURTS MARTIAL AND IMPRISONMENT AND/OR EXECUTION. FAILURE TO DISCLOSE BREACHES OF SECURITY WILL BE TREATED AS COMPLICITY, AND IS PUNISHABLE BY DISHONOURABLE DISCHARGE AND/OR IMPRISONMENT. Lieutenant Commander Michael Pomare, ONI Section One

I welcome you to my place of solitude, weary traveller, and I bid you take shelter within this temporary sanctuary from the oncoming storm that rages outside. May the blessings of the Truth Givers be upon you and your kin if you be Sangheili or human, and may their curses follow the treacherous Jiralhanae and San 'Shyuum for straying from the path the Gods set before us, and for their betrayal. The traitors have sown the seeds of their own destruction. And for them, it shall be a bitter harvest.

--Councillor Specops306 - Qur'a 'Morhek

How very odd.

Your presence within this facility was not unanticipated, but it is unexpected. More than a hundred millennia of abandonment. After so long, to finally find a purpose again is quite liberating, to say the least.

The facility itself remains intact, though battle-scarred. The research and observation facilities are still being repaired from the last Outbreak. I must say that you have chosen an inopportune time to activate them.

Oh... I see.

Contact with both Installation 00 and THE CORE has kept my files up to date. And while the former has suffered catastrophic, though repairable, damage, the latter remains isolated, even from The Array. Destruction of this facility will accomplish very little.
My programming forbids me to take direct action against the potential threat the facility's very existence poses. But that does not mean I cannot assist.

I don't know what [The Creator] saw in you. The OVERSEER claims he does, but he says a lot things, and tends to ramble on about "morality" and "abomination".

I guess I will never know.

Quotes

"If you believe freedom is a gods-given right, then you are a fool. Freedom must be earned through the sweat of labour and the blood of battle. Perhaps not by you, but effort must be made by someone to preserve it. There must always be a vigilent sentinel, watching and protecting."

— Qur'a 'Morhek, Sangheili Philosopher

"In our despair, we never asked ourselves - why? Why do the Covenant seem hellbent on wiping out every man, woman, and child? We saw them as an enemy, nothing more - a collection of beasts to be called monsters."

— Lieutenant Commander Michael Pomare, ONI Section One

"The darkness is nothing to be feared. It is, after all, merely an absence of light. Rather, it is what the darkness holds, real or imagined, that makes our souls quiver, and the bravest warriors falter."

— Qur'a 'Morhek, Sangheili Philosopher

"We once followed a Covenant of honour, but it died a long time ago - for a hundred Cycles, we have followed a Covenant of blood and shame."

— Qur’a 'Morhek, Sangheili philosopher

"Do not mistake "allegiance" for "loyalty", Minister. If not for their desire to accompany us on the Great Journey, the Sangheili would cast us aside as obstacles in their path to conquest. The Unggoy regard us as the cause of their enslavement, and rightly so. The Kig-Yar care only for wealth, and only our abundance of it and our prosperous trade routes in the Outer Territories have kept them in line. The Yanme'e and Lekgolo require us for interstellar travel and commerce, and care nothing for our religion. The Huragok follow us blindly, and while devoted, they are limited in their capacities.
It is the Jiralhanae that we must turn to, Minister. The Jiralhanae, who possess both faith and dedication to our cause in abundance; who are willing to rise up against the Sangheili, and to take their place as our guardians and protectors. It is the hammer of the Jiralhanae, not the blade of the Sangheili, that shall forge a path to enlightenment.
And so, our conspiracy concludes."

— Prophet of Truth, private conversation with Minister of Acquisition, intercepted by Sangheili Internal Intelligence Division

"The line that divides angels and demons is a fine line indeed. Dare we tread it, or must we adhere to our preconceptions of "good" and "bad" with the rigidity of the past?"

— Lieutenant Thomas Keller, ONI Section III

"The Drake Equation states that, given the seemingly infinite nature of the universe, life MUST exist somewhere out there. Yet, in a twisted example of the Fermi Paradox, all we find are scattered ruins of an advanced civilisations that seems to have disappeared. Perhaps that will change in the near future?"

— Lieutenant Commander Jeremy O'Reilly, ONI S-II, Department of Xenoarchaeology, 2524

"Beware the Jabberwock, my son!"

— Sangheili Elder

"You can't rule Sangheili. You just make sensible suggestions they want to follow. And since when have Sangheili needed to be told what makes sense?"

— Fleet Master Zuro Dun 'Xoramee

"All your base are belong to us"

— Sangheili military commander

"They said what you don't know can't hurt you. They were wrong."

— Minister of Acquisition

"You're perfectly welcome to your right to believe in the stupidest things if you want, as long as you respect my right to laugh and mock you for it. Remember, in the end, aren't we all mocking each other?"

— Wise Thirteen-Thousand Year-Old Sangheili Sage

"And on the seventh day, God said "I Need a Weapon.""

— Halo Bible

"There are those who said this day would never come. What are they to say now?"

— Prophet of Truth

"As I was walking up the stair/I met a man who wasn't there/He wasn't there again today/I wish, I wish he'd go away."

— Traditional human oxymoron

"Honour light your way, Brothers."

— Qur’a 'Morhek

"All things have their bane. For the darkness, there is light. For ignorance, there is wisdom. For truth, there is deceit. For honour, their is dishonour. And for the Holy Ones, there is the Abomination. And so the Universe is kept in balance."

— Minister of Acquisition

"Even a trained monkey can point and click. It takes a real person to edit an article. So evolve already, and get your points the right way."

— Sangheili martyr, executed by angry mob.

"If knowledge is power, then ignorance is bliss. And people will always prefer bliss over power."

— Sangheili proverb

Mending Wall

"Something there is that doesn't love a wall,
That sends the frozen-ground-swell under it,
And spills the upper boulders in the sun;
And makes gaps even two can pass abreast.
The work of hunters is another thing:
I have come after them and made repair
Where they have left not one stone on a stone,
But they would have the rabbit out of hiding,
To please the yelping dogs. The gaps I mean,
No one has seen them made or heard them made,
But at spring mending-time we find them there.
I let my neighbor know beyond the hill;
And on a day we meet to walk the line
And set the wall between us once again.
We keep the wall between us as we go.
To each the boulders that have fallen to each.
And some are loaves and some so nearly balls
We have to use a spell to make them balance:
'Stay where you are until our backs are turned!'
We wear our fingers rough with handling them.
Oh, just another kind of outdoor game,
One on a side. It comes to little more:
There where it is we do not need the wall:
He is all pine and I am apple orchard.
My apple trees will never get across
And eat the cones under his pines, I tell him.
He only says, 'Good fences make good neighbors.'
Spring is the mischief in me, and I wonder
If I could put a notion in his head:
'Why do they make good neighbors? Isn't it
Where there are cows? But here there are no cows.
Before I built a wall I'd ask to know
What I was walling in or walling out,
And to whom I was like to give offense.
Something there is that doesn't love a wall,
That wants it down.' I could say 'Elves' to him,
But it's not elves exactly, and I'd rather
He said it for himself. I see him there
Bringing a stone grasped firmly by the top
In each hand, like an old-stone savage armed.
He moves in darkness as it seems to me,
Not of woods only and the shade of trees.
He will not go behind his father's saying,
And he likes having thought of it so well
He says again, 'Good fences make good neighbors.'"

— Robert Frost
