Maybe with respect to 3prhihhnhl now would be a good time to add this:

Brute -> Jiralhanae
Drone -> Yanme'e
Elite -> Sangheili
Engineer/Savant -> Huragok
Grunt -> Unggoy
Hunter -> Lekgold
Jackal -> Kig-Yar
Prophet -> Prophet

-Tar


Molte grazie.

We shall avenge this destruction with some of this[?], and the Jiralhanae will show the humans what our strength looks like at close quarters.

<chuckle> Oh delightful. "Jiralhanae" is also an impolite Korean term for a "moron." With a suggestion of craziness, as well.

Alrighty, plop that next sentence down, baby!

Anyone else notice how the letter that turns into 'E' changed from 'I' to 'L' between sentences?

Hmmm.

Translated directly from this
Letter from Truth to Mercy about Regret wrote:

To thine own eyes Prophet of Mercy.

Dearest Brother,

I hope this finds you well. My sorrow and anger precede me with regard to the atrocity and heresy at Halo. We shall avenge those destroyed with some of our own. Work proceeds apace on our battle plan. The Elites will do what is asked of them, and the Brutes will show the humans what our strength looks like at close quarters.

But this message concerns neither the planning nor the discovery of the human homeworld. Rather I question Brother Regret's suitability for this great purpose.

I am aware of his tenacity and ambition, but I believe his youth and reckless reaching may prove to be grave risks to the perfection of this undertaking. You have noted his rashness in the past and yet neither of us has acted.

I suggest that we continue as planned, but we would both do well to mind to Brother Regret, and provide wisdom and guidance as needed. This matter is too important to be left to inexperienced hands. Piety is no substitute for wisdom.

Perhaps I worry you much. You know that I embrace caution, but we cannot have inexperience at this great juncture.

Be pure, be vigilant and never rest

By my own hand

Prophet of Truth



Done...

Hey Atrophied... where'd you get all those extra words and sentence fragments? I don't have the dealie right here in front of me, but it seems like you've got a little extra.

Doesn't change my question. He's throwing in extra words up in the first section where earlier we had none. I didn't even see the name for Elites pop up in everything Tar pasted.

Also; you're fast. I'll let you do it, and add help where necessary.

He's use'n his copy of the booklet (or the scan I attached in the 1st post). And the name for Elites hasn't been used yet that I've seen... but at the time I wasn't sure which it was so I 'bolded' both.

Hope that helps,
-Tar
