IsoDidact: Difference between revisions

Line 94:

*There is an implicit connection between the IsoDidact and [[John-117]], the protagonist of the ''Halo'' series. In ''[[Halo: Silentium]]'', the IsoDidact asks [[343 Guilty Spark]] if he would fire the [[Halo Array]] were it his choice, receiving no response. 343 Guilty Spark echoes this conversation to him during the events of ''[[Halo: Combat Evolved]]'', addressing the Master Chief as if he were the IsoDidact. In ''Halo 3'', the [[Gravemind]] states that ''"Defeat is simply the addition of time to a sentence I never deserved... but you imposed."'' The IsoDidact's imprisonment and subsequent condemnation of the Primordial into a billion years of sensory isolation in ''Halo: Primordium'' could be interpreted as giving retroactive meaning to the Gravemind's statement, given that it shares the Primordial's memories. Alternatively, it may refer to the "sentence" the Forerunners on the whole forced on the Flood by firing the Halos, or, in the new context of ''The Forerunner Saga'', the prehistoric Forerunners' imprisonment of the Primordial for nine million years.

*A centuries-long series of conversations between Bornstellar-Didact and the Librarian can be found inside Forerunner terminals in Halo 3. When the terminals are accessed, the player is eventually moved to a conversation that was recorded before the Halo rings were fired. Also, in the Iris campaign Server Episode 1, Didact's last words to the Librarian moments prior to the Array's activation can be read.

*Bornstellar as a Didact could be considered to be ironic. The original Didact hated humanity and wished to see it destroyed while Bornstellar became closely attached to two humans (Chakas and Riser) in the events of the Forerunner saga.
