<option>{{Quote|In this hour of victory, we taste only defeat. I ask why. We are Forerunners, guardians of all that exists. The roots of the galaxy have grown deep under our careful tending.

And the impervious shelter beneath which it has prospered. "I stand before you. Accused of the sin of ensuring Forerunner ascendancy.
