: Consider also that the Mythworld is the dream of a higher
: entity. We know about entities who can bring their
: dreams into reality, don't we?
: You can find some interesting threads on this issue in

: on Myth/Marathon connections, and the ways in which an
: AI might be influenced by Marathon creatures to
: "dream" certain elements into a Mythworld

Too bad Bungie didn't add a few obvious connections. Instead of naming Soulblighter lame old Damas they could have called him Bernard and there certainly could have been 7 Fallen Lords (and there may be... somewhere) And no incoherent phrases like Frog Blast the Vent Core! They couldn't have made the warrior say something like "chickens robed the meat door!" (but slurred it)
: Phantasms, you mean...and sure they are, just like the
: invisible Compilers. They've just got a bit of Black
: Company Shadows thrown in (say people who've read the
: series).
THey've been called shades and a few other names in-game by the dead germans SMARTY PANTS :) I keep hearing about this Black COmpany. What were the similarities besides The Watcher and that Fertility God gone bad or whatever it was.
