[quote][b]Posted by:[/b] grey101 Both of Karen Travis' novels state the installation wasn't finished and the forerunners never returned. And if that were the Case the Sentinels wouldn't have ignored the spartans after a certain point.[/quote]Karens novels exist in correlation to Halo 4; they are in favour of Requiem, of coarse they render Onyx [i]unusable[/i] - they decided to place the continuation of the story [i]in[/i] Requiem. That just contributes to my point; prior to Travis novels, Halo 4, etc, whatever Requiem is, could just as well have been Onyx, since no evidence prior states otherwise.
