Gravemind: famous quotes.

1) Silence fills the empty grave, but questions linger on. Now I will ask, and you will answer. 2)This is not your grave(incomprehensible roars) but you are welcome in it. 3) Cortana: What...is that? Gravemind: I? I am a monument to all your sins. [Two more tentacles descend holding a struggling Arbiter.] Chief: Relax. I'd rather not piss this thing off. Arbiter: Demon! Gravemind: This one is machine and nerve, and has its mind concluded. This one is but flesh and faith, and is the more deluded. Arbiter: Kill me or release me parasite! But do not waste my time with talk. Gravemind: There is much talk. And I have listened. Through rock and metal and time. Now I shall talk, and you shall listen. [Another tentacle comes into view, wrapped around a monitor with a red eye.] 2401: Greetings! I am twenty-four-oh-one Penitent Tangent. I am the monitor of installation zero-five. [Yet another tentacle. This one is merged with a half-Flood Regret.] Regret: And I am the Prophet of Regret...counciler most high...Hierarch of the Covenant! 2401: A Reclaimer? Here? At last! We have much to do. This facility must be activated if we are to control this outbreak! Regret: Stay were you are! Nothing can be done until my sermon is complete! 2401: Not true. This installation has a successful utilization record of one- point-two trillion simulated and one actual. It is ready to fire on demand. Regret: Of all the objects our Lords left behind, there are none so worthless as these Oracles! They know nothing of the Great Journey! 2401: And you know nothing about containment! You have demonstrated complete disregard for even the most basic of protocols! Gravemind: This one's containment...and this one's Great Journey are the same. Your Prophets have promised you freedom from a doomed existence. But you will find no salvation on this ring. Those who built this place knew what they wrought. Do not mistake their intent, or all will perish as they did before. Chief: This thing is right. Halo is a weapon. Your Prophets are making a big mistake. Arbiter: Your ignorance already destroyed one of the Sacred Rings demon. It shall not harm another. Gravemind: If you will not hear the truth, then I will show it to you. There is still time to keep the key from turning. But first, it must be found. You will search one likely spot, and you will search another. Fate had us meet as foes, but this ring will make us brothers!

  • [quote][b]Posted by:[/b] dahuterschuter My favourite has always been, "One is made f steel and bone and has his mind concluded, the other is of flesh and faith and is the more deluded." Halo 2 Gravemind was one of my favourite characters in fiction. In Halo 3 he became more like the classic evil villain archetype, and that made him a bit weaker.[/quote]"Machine and nerve" not " made of steel"

I would rather have a boss battle with Gravemind than his puppets. That room with Cortana in it would be a good place to introduce a new Flood Pure Form, Legend of Zelda mini-boss style.

  • I stopped reading when the very first quote was quoted incorrectly. "Silence fills the empty grave,[b] now that I have gone [/b]. But my mind is not at rest, for questions linger onnnnnnnn. Now I will ask, and you will answer" The whole point of a "quote" is to get it right, otherwise it is not a quote. Sorry for being harsh. [Edited on 03.09.2012 4:43 PM PST]

  • [quote][b]Posted by:[/b] M94 Mushroom Man Um... why did you make this thread?[/quote] I don't know why he made it, but Halo sure does have amazing in-game philosophy. "Arrogant creatures! Your deaths will be instantaneous, while we shall suffer the progress of infinitude!" "Do not be afraid. I am peace; I am salvation." "Of course, you came for her. We exist together now, two corpses in one grave." "Time... has taught me patience! But basking in new freedom, I will know all that I possess!" "Resignation is my virtue; like water I ebb, and flow. Defeat is simply the addition of time to a sentence I never deserved... but you imposed." "Ashes to ashes, dust to dust." "Do I take life or give it? Who is victim, and who is foe?" "I have beaten fleets of thousands! Consumed a galaxy of flesh and mind and bone!" [Edited on 03.09.2012 4:08 AM PST]
