Strato-Sentinels were used as escorts during the [[Forerunner-Flood war]].<ref name="legends">'''[[Halo Legends]]''', ''[[Origins]]''</ref> Following [[Great Purification|the firing]] of the Halo Array, Strato-Sentinelsassisted the [[keyship]]s with the [[reintroduction]] of species throughout the [[Milky Way]], as per the [[Conservation Measure]], accompanying the vessels back to species' homeworlds.<ref name="legends"/> Strato-Sentinels assisted with the excavation and construction of a massive [[Portal at Voi|slipspace portal]] on [[Earth|Erde-Tyrene]], in the present-day country of [[Kenya]], that had been set into motion by the Librarian before her death. These Strato-Sentinels were spotted by the [[human]] tribe elder [[N'chala]], in the years after the reintroduction, who mistook the sentinels for gods.<ref>'''[[Halo 3: The Cradle of Life]]''', ''page 2''</ref> | |||
==Behind the scenes== | |||
Strato-Sentinels were originally planned to appear in ''[[Halo 3]]'', but were ultimately cut from the game. One of the early settings for the maps "[[Construct]]"<ref>[http://halo.bungie.net/News/content.aspx?type=topnews&link=Construct_Postmortem '''Bungie.net''': ''Deconstructing Construct'']</ref> and "[[Blackout]]" was the interior of a damaged Strato-Sentinels in orbit around the [[Foundry]], where other Strato-Sentinels could be seen in the distance harvesting materials from the Foundry's resource [[moon]]. However, this idea was scrapped.<ref>'''The Art of Halo 3''', ''page 128''</ref> During production, they were known as "Strato-Sentinels", a name that would later be adopted in subsequent canon. The Strato-Sentinels were also intended to be included in ''[[Halo 4]]'', though they were removed from the game during the pre-production stages.<ref>''[[Awakening: The Art of Halo 4]]''</ref> | |||
