This song plays over two of my favourite lines in the franchise "Tartarus, the Prophets have betrayed us." and "You were weak, and Gods must be strong." So it basically defines Halo to me

Thel 'Vadam: "Tartarus, stop."
Tartarus: (gasps, jerks his neck up in surprise) "Impossible!"
Thel 'Vadam: "Put down the Icon."
Tartarus turns to face 'Vadam.
Tartarus: "Put it down? And disobey the Hierarchs?"
Thel 'Vadam: "There are things about Halo even the Hierarchs do not understand."
Brutes step forward menacingly, Tartarus waves them off
Tartarus: "Take care, Arbiter. What you say is heresy!"
Thel 'Vadam: "Is it? (gently) Oracle, what is Halo's purpose?"
343 Guilty Spark: "Well collectively, the seven—"
Tartarus grabs 343 Guilty Spark and jerks him around.
Tartarus: "Not another word!"
Sergeant Johnson (off screen): "Please ...
Tartarus lowers 343 Guilty Spark to see Johnson standing next to 'Vadam. He holds a Beam Rifle and aims it directly at Tartarus.
Sergeant Johnson: "Don't shake the light-bulb."
Brutes growl and approach
Sergeant Johnson: (raises Beam Rifle to Tartarus' head) "If you wanna' keep your brain inside your head, I'd tell those boys to chill."
Tartarus barks as commanded, the Brutes back off.
Sergeant Johnson: (to 'Vadam) "Go ahead. Do your thing."
Thel 'Vadam: (to Guilty Spark) "The Sacred Rings, what are they?"
343 Guilty Spark: "Weapons of last resort, built by the Forerunners to eliminate potential Flood hosts, thereby rendering the parasite harmless."
Thel 'Vadam: "And those who made the rings? What happened to the Forerunners?"
343 Guilty Spark: "After exhausting every other strategic option, my creators activated the rings. They and all additional sentient life within three radii of the galactic center, died, as planned."
Close up on 'Vadam, he lowers his head in sadness.
343 Guilty Spark: (slightly awkward) "Would you... like to see the relevant data?"
Thel 'Vadam: (turns his attention back to Tartarus) "Tartarus. The Prophets have betrayed us."
Tartarus pauses, then throws 343 Guilty Spark at Johnson's head, knocking him down. He then grabs Keyes' hand and forces the Index into the console
Tartarus: "No, Arbiter! The Great Journey has begun. And the Brutes, not the Elites, shall be the Prophets' escort!"
Tartarus grabs his hammer as his energy shield turns on. The main platform splits into three as Halo charges up.

Gods must be strong.
I'll never forget all the memories H3, Reach, HW1 and H4 gave me. The times I spent on the Xbox 360 and so on.
God it's H2 and the original Xbox servers all over again.
I mean, there was a reason when Bungi turned off the servers, but now it's like 343i just wants one more pocket of money.
Now I get that they have MCC and Infinite but... It's not - Never will be - the same as the old servers.
Miss ya Bungi.

What a way to bring in the feels, I can just imagine the betrayal the arbiter and his brothers felt on the day of the great schism.
Just like Spartans never die and are always remembered, we won't forget our fallen brothers.
Never forget.

I looked at what rue and woe meant as words and man... that perfectly describes what arbiter must have been feeling at the end of Halo 2
"Tartarus.... the prophets have betrayed us......"
T^T

Nothing will ever top the OG Rue and Woe in Halo 2. So much emotion, sadness and nostalgia in one scene. The song fits it so perfectly. You can just quote every sentence in sync
@DNV970Raze 5 years ago
These videos are a mixture of memories, excitement, surprise, nostalgia.... Everything.
From the bottom if my heart, thanks ♥️

"Don't shoot, but listen. Let us Guide you safely to our foe. Only you can stop what he has set in motion."
- Quote one of the most unlikely, most temporary, but most significant allies in the trilogy.

Yo that black tower is a different version from the released CD. It sounds like it's straight from the cutscene. Woahh
@EndOfTheDark97 5 years ago (edited)
This is on the same level as Howard Shore’s score in The Lord of the Rings. Beautiful.
