Did I lecture you about not reading through the whole thing? I am proud, son. And the more I think about it, I do agree that (in the Haloverse at least) that Mendicant Bias = Joyeuse. [quote][b]Posted by:[/b] Sangheilioz Fantastic theory, Cortana! I suspect our new "Charlemagne" is a precursor-esque entity... It's heavily speculated that the Gravemind and its flood are a product of the Precursor. So, just as Ogier slew Charlot, Chief slew the Gravemind. Also, reading through the bits about the sword Joyeuse immediately brought to mind Mendicant Bias. These are just first-glance observations and I doubt they're anywhere near the truth as the new IP will be independent of Halo. Still, food for thought. On a side note, it was nice meeting you Friday evening![/quote]
