I'd have to believe that the Covenant still would exist...just without Elites. I mean, the high Prophets were killed, but their race still exists...and the Brutes are pretty fanatical. I wouldn't think they'd give up their pursuit just because the high Prophets died. Be that as it may, I'd also think that the remaining Covenant would be pretty weak. The Covenant were fractured and high charity was destroyed. For the Elites, they'd probably try to show the remaining Covenant about the Prophets' lies. They'd most likely also start their own "empire"...possibly still allied with humanity. It was said a few times that the Elites thought highly of human tactics and bravery. As for humanity, they'd probably rebuild, possibly with the help of the Elites. But most definitely they'd continue uncovering the Forerunner mystery, and continue to investigate their technology and lineage.

They live happily ever after.

The High Council was composed mainly of San-Shy'uum, and most Covenant scientists were San-Shy'uum, who made weapons, ships, and other Covenant tech.

The Elites were more intelligent and better fighters, and it's probably an even fight, even as Elites supplies dwindle. Mind you that the Loyalists and Seperatists both had other species, but the Seperatists species were not shown in Halo 3, as to not confuse the player, but they both had Grunts, Jackals, Hunters and Drones on their sides, while Loyalists had the San-Shy'uum, the smartest, but weakest species. The Loyalists were also leaderless and very disorganized. If anything, I think that as the Humans began to rebuild, they gave a helping hand to the Elites, as the Elites had done to them, and helped them understand the technology and such. Together, they'd probably form some sort of alliance, the Humans helping with tech, and Elites helping the humans rebuild. I remember reading there was a six-year war between the Loyalists and the Seperatists after the end of the Human-Covenant war, the Seperatists just barely making it through, being superior fighters. [/quote] Umm, no. There were only about 500 San-Shy'uum and they all lived on High Charity, and if any did survive, which they didn't that doesn't mean the could build fleets fro the Brutes! Nor make a flow of supplies! The Elites would have won fast and swift, glassed The Brute home world, and returned home.[/quote] Thanks for clearing that up, I really don't know much about the Haloverse, just assumptions and such, mainly little snatches from Halopedia and what I read here on the forums. And I don't think the San 'Shyuum directly built the fleets, but more like design the ships and direct the construction and repair of them, having facilities, machinery or Hugarok actually doing the manual labor.

yeah guys, San Shyu'um are extinct. there was only a few million left. their home planet, with all non separatist population was engulfed in a supernova a few thousand years ago. All surviving Prophets live on High Charity or are governors or ministers on colonies. due to the fall of High Charity (densest population of San Shyu'um) there is estimated to be under 500 left in the galaxy. too few to even repopulate.

Human and elites alliance. Master Chief comes back to pwn some newbs some later

The brutes after the war were on the endangered species list.

If I didn't watch the ending, I wouldn't have known the covenant goes back to Sanghelion.

Didn't you watch the ending? It doesn't matter what happens. They live happily ever after.

I doubt any Loyalist Grunts or Jackals or Drones survived at all. The Brutes don't seem like the ones who would drop them off at their home planets and continue fighting the Elites on their own.

Also like Jon said the Kig-Yars became pirates like they used to be. [Edited on 11.28.2010 2:17 PM PST]

True, every last Prophet was infected by the Flood as their home is on High Charity, which was the Gravemind's Headquarters in Halo 3.

[quote][b]Posted by:[/b] Buzz the Fuzz It broke up, all the races went their seperate ways. I beleive the Prophets went extinct.[/quote]The prophets went into hiding which caused the brutes to go back to their savage ways of civil war, allowing the elites to have the upper hand.

I think the Jackals just become Pirates of the Universe.

The Elite's and Brutes continue on fighting each other until the Elite's win in the end I think the Prophets go into hiding The Grunts go home(I think) The hunters go back to eating Forerunner junk

It broke up, all the races went their seperate ways. I beleive the Prophets went extinct.

Someone, anyone, please respond!
