Mausoleum Suite Hidden Message

  • I decoded the song from the Halo 2 Soundtrack Volume 1, Mausoleum Suite.
    I believe the one that is speaking in the message is Mendicant Bias.
    Created in 100,043 BC, Mendicant Bias was tasked with resisting the Flood by studying and exploiting the weaknesses of the first Gravemind. For forty-three years, Mendicant Bias engaged in dialogue with the Gravemind in an effort to find such weakness, sending logs of these conversations to his Forerunner masters. Eventually, the Gravemind persuaded Mendicant Bias to abandon the Forerunners and join the Flood cause, convincing him that the Forerunners were so gluttonous and prideful as to deny the next step of evolution: the Flood. The Gravemind insinuated that by clinging to the legend of the Mantle, the Forerunners had doomed the galaxy to eternal stagnation; the only way for the galaxy to progress was for superior beings to "restart" it. These superior beings, unsurprisingly, took the form of Compound Minds such as Gravemind and Mendicant Bias himself. Although the 43-year long conversation logs between Mendicant Bias and the Gravemind were sent back to the Forerunners, they believed that Mendicant would automatically fulfill its objective and destroy the Gravemind, and so did not intervene. Convinced by the Gravemind's arguments, Mendicant Bias intentionally became rampant, developed a hatred for his creators and actively worked toward their destruction. - Halopedia halo.wikia.com/wiki/Mendicant_...
    Here is the message
    I have walked among men and angels for three thousand years.
    Time has no end, no beginning, no purpose.
    I wandered the earth seeking forgiveness for my horrible crimes against God and man.
    I live to see death and destruction.
    Evil over the light, but the light cannot be extinguished.
    I live in a prison of my own demise.
    I am lost in time

      Mendicant bias was affected by thr logic plague and turned on forerunners. Later stopped by Offenisve bias. After the war Mendicant was imprisoned on the Ark and forced to think about atonement to cure him of his logic plague. This was succesfull as Mendicant would turn back against flood after countless years of thinking. In this it seeked to find the reclaimers and help them claim the forerunner empire(original storyline where forerunners were human and left their tools to be reclaimed by their reseeded descendants.) Amd 343 storyline where forerunners are seperate species and Librarian left all their gifts to Humanity to claim and prepare for the test they failed.

    Being that Halo Infinite is popping up a lot of lore, I was drawn to this video by the 'ice berg' of halo mysteries. My only thoughts of this just make me ask more questions. I understand, this audio is said by an alien (When said normally), but yet being backwards it sounds like something native from earth is speaking. "I have walked among men and angels" - The only thing I can think of, this being a very human understanding of what the term 'men' and 'angels' means to humans or... human like being. The biggest statement that makes me question this also "I wonder the EARTH seeking forgiveness." No brute, elite, or anything outside of humanity that we know of could be saying this. So what the fuck is talking?

    • @NotALotOfColonial_SpaghettiToG
      @NotALotOfColonial_SpaghettiToG Год назад +4

      It's been 7 months, so you likely found the answer, but it's almost certainly mendicant bias.
      Basically, Mendicant Bias was an AI who was created by forerunners to fight the flood. (A lot of Halo 2 implies humanity are forerunners, which was later retconned [IIRC they're subspecies of each other], which is where the focus on humanity comes from.) Forerunners assumed he would eventually default to his programming and did not intervene with his interactions with the Gravemind. Mendicant Bias willfully joined the flood, and it was only after the extinction of forerunners that he realized he was wrong. After the firing of the rings, He was discovered by the Covenant and wound up on high charity as the ship's AI, which is why he can be heard on mausoleum suite. Cortana references him in the mission High Charity when she talks about a formidable AI preventing her from delaying the launch sequence.
      A lot of covenant call master chief "demon," angel is the opposite. When he says he's walking among angels, I take it that he's watching Master Chief. The final terminal from mendicant bias (found on halo 3 on legendary difficulty, you can only read it if you have the rest already) suggests that he may be the reason behind master chief's luck, as he says he will do everything in his power to keep him safe. He's likely been watching him for a while.
