- In Halo Reach we watched as the planet Reach slowly fell to the Covenant, and we discovered one of its ancient secrets hidden beneath a large ice shelf, guarded by ONI and containing knowledge that would change the course of human history. However, what happened to Reach and its many ancient secrets after Halo Reach, and why are ONI sending Spartans to look for something hidden on the planet under the highest classification? Today, we investigate…

After the Covenant invasion had finished destroying Reach, humanity's most important world besides Earth, what happened to it, and why is it now shrouded in ONI mystery? Today, we take look! Hope you enjoy guys :D
Yes he's English you vegetable brained munchkin.
What if all of reachs inhabitants just survived in caves like noble 6?
Hey Xperia can do a video on the secret A.I. council and their possible connection to Cortana and the Created?
The book was far better than the game
The Crystal was the space stone.
5 seconds later the details lined up
So what you're telling me is Noble Six is just chillin in a 𝑪𝑨𝑽𝑬
Michael Smith it’s free real estate
Michael Smith I knew he was alive
He got melted like cheese on a pizza
He's not just chillin. He's building the ARC-reactor down *IN THAT CAVE! ... WITH A BOX OF SCRAPS!* Okay that's it, i'm gettin roundhouse-kicked out, well fuck. Let me just do it myself for that bad meme usage, kthxbai.
Haggysack2k8 DAMMIT! You beat me to it....”well I’m not Tony stark”
Imagine a colonist finding Noble 6's helmet like
"Hey, Adam look at this helmet."
"Oh, Fancy."
"hey let me put it on"
*Gives helmet
"Oh look I'm a spartan, so big and tough!"
"Alright Adam that's enough we know you could never be one"
Unnamed colonist “wow there’s a video recording on it.”
*watches Campaign
“Adam... we should totally make a video game about this!”
[narrator] And so bungie was formed, and went on to make many great games from random helmets they found.
We just need some diamond pickaxes to clear Reach.
Not just diamond, OBSIDIAN PICKAXE MODS.
Yah
No, we need sum vibranium picaxed.
why don't we just get all the rubble from the demolition site, and push it somewhere else
@@patrickborges6616 Ok, I'm getting ready the portal to Karda Nui.
HiddenXperia could never keep a secret, especially an ONI secret.
Hahahahahahahaha
This is it, its them. Initiate winter contingencies.
@MakutaGamesLive true but that's not as Important as ONI secrets.
=(
ONI WANTS TO KNOW YOUR LOCATION
Maybe noble 6 knows how it was when reach was glassed
Oof
yikes, too soon?
Hes just enjoying a nice sun tan in his cave
*OMFG*
Or at least his helmet recording camera...
When you loose reach and thousands of soldiers to the covenant glassing but you saved an old soldier, a blue AI, and make it to a space ring.
“I see, this is an absolute win”
[snap]
They stopped the Covenant, so.....
Dumbest comment I've seen in years.
@@nuclearjanitors clearly you haven't been active on TH-cam because this is top of the even dumber ones I've seen
@@FreezyPop oWo you spend more time staring at a screen.
Reach really can't come any sooner. I've never been more hyped for a game that already released.
iTz Lazerz too right mate
@Apex Wraith so what tf2 is awesome
GMH 50o Why are you talking about Team Fortress 2? The guy was talking about Titanfall 2 ffs. P.S I’m joking don’t get triggered
Hopefully they get it right this time lol
Neon Dawn you basically just said the game wasn’t good after saying the game was good lmao
I have a halo theory. 343 have essentially confirmed cortana has been infected by the logic plague. And the halo 5 legendary ending featured showed that cortana has plans with zeta halo which has a very long history withe the flood. Also the infinite trailer was on zeta halos so my idea is that cortana won't use the halos as a super weapon but she will release the flood, forcing everyone to accept her protection. If the unsc cant fight off the created and the flood then they have to accept her protection and if they don't then the galaxy will be infected anyway just like her flood masters want.
And if it is the precursors plan to infect the galaxy with the flood to determine who has the mantle of responsibility it makes complete sense. Also she could still fire the rings as a last resort by keeping a reclaimer in her possession.
I agree with most of your theory but when you said she can just light the rings as a last resort she will still need a reclaimer to light the rings though and if the flood won she can't do it. Unless there is another way to light the rings and I don't think there is.
When you mentioned the Precursors I started thinking that the Precursor AI on Maythrillian might have some sort of influnce on Cortana due to the Logic plague. I remember it being named Abaddon
I also have a theory of this. The Cortana in Halo 5 is the Cortana clone made in the book "The Flood" to land the pillar of autumn. She got the logic plague from the proto gravemind Keyes, and escaped through the domain when she came across 343 guilty spark in the systems of the pillar of autumn. You're welcome.
@@MVJORV dang. Sounds legit.
@@zd_5907 I forgot to add that Cortana in Halo 4 is really dead. And thanks, I really think hard when it comes to theories.
Not this too. No info's safe from you, is it?
he must be silenced
Andromeda were it so easy
Well remember glassed planets have bad records
The ICONIC one can't be silenced
Sorry ONI
I figured ONI wanted to hide Reach's recovery simply to make sure the Covenant remnants never found out and went back to siege the planet again.
Jesse Isbell The Covenant remnants wouldn’t stand a chance against the UNSC. Just remember if things were dire they would just summon the Infinity, a Infinity-class ship that has shields and a power double MAC, with MAC guns that can rotate on it’s surface too. It’s basically unstoppable. It also has around 10 Strident-class frigates stored in it’s hull that it releases when engaging in battle.
@@beastmode1915 Didn't the UNSC infinity get wrekt in 5? Memory is very hazy.
Himiko no it survived but was about to be destroyed
Any Covenant Remnant fleet would have to engage the UNSC Infinity if they tried, which said ship is stronger than almost every Covenant ship ever built minus the CSO-class Supercarrier, but I think the Remnants are out of those. Besides, the Remnants under Jul 'Mdama were beaten in 5, with Jul himself having been killed. The Swords of Sangheilios had already won against the Remnants, and most other factions aside from the Banished are either easy pickings, or already dealt with. The Banished are the only faction aside from the Swords that can actually fight against humanity, especially since their leader Atriox is very smart and cunning for a Jiralhanae.

YES
Really interesting possibilities here. Certainly something I'd like to know more about. I can't help but feel the epilogue in Halo Reach was more than a poetic end to Noble 6s story, but more a suggestion at what humanity will be up to in the 2680s-90s. Really want to discover what information is locked away in the Forerunner relics we have found and continue to find.
Really wanna meet a precursor too! Interesting video buddy. Much love from Installation00.
Why don’t you ask Noble 6, considering he was in a cave on Reach afterward... right...
he's dead, let him go, he would have wanted it
Maybe that's what the Spartans are being sent into find... It's not a *what* it's a *WHO*
@@HiddenXperia Holy **** you might be on to something...
I KNEW he wasn't dead! And NO ONE believed me!
He is Dead. NOT BIG SUPRISE.

Yeah. The space stone.
Im still annoyed about the plotholes reach caused in the lore
@@wannabecliffburton4275 plotholes?, explain
@@BeTeLGeuZeX Holes between the book fall of reach and bungies own game lore. The book technically isn't cannon since nobody at bungie wrote it, I don't think they consulted much if at all, but I like it.
What I love about the ending of Reach is how it shows that 30+ years into the future of where the Master Chief is right now every thing will be okay. At least there are survivors on Reach from what we can see.
For some reason, I find it highly unlikely that the ancient forerunner ship was destroyed at all, if anything it might have been slightly damaged, but as we see time and time again, forerunner artifacts, ships, and even weapons prove almost impossible to destroy or damage, as they seem to have some sort of nanotechnology implemented upon them, if anything, the explosion only may have damaged the ship enough to leave it disabled until humanity could eventually recover it. Afterall, in the scene where they show it "being destroyed" it looks more like they were digging it out of the ice it was buried under. As for the crystals, I don't really have much knowledge about them, but I dought the forerunners would have only 1 of such a device.
Edit: would also like to point out, that the very mention that it was a ship once, could prove that we could see it in use at some point in the future, granted, maybe not as grand or great as it originally was with it being damaged, but still, dought it was destroyed.
"How did they survive"

I remember, I had an old theory on how the ship in the backround of the last mission cutscene, was actually a bunker that noble 6 may have lived in after he killed the elites that jumped him

Hey Xperia, could you do a video on Durga or Doppler?
I'd like some more AI lore videos.
Senpai noticed me...
Oh man... ILB stuff is deeeeeeeeeep. I had a video planned on it last year but I never got round to it. I have all the DVD files so I'll get around to making a few videos on it and its content at some point but maaaaaan it's long and heavy haha. Some day!
HiddenXperia make a video on James ackerson
Intrepid Eye needs a video
The crystal that Halsey found in the cave is known as a Slipspace flake, as shown in Halo: Renegades.
Been waiting since that 7 hours Instagram story my man, good to hear from ya again
I hope we return to Reach at some point in a future game (but we really don't need any more retellings of the Fall of Reach) maybe as a way to get to Maethrillian and enter the Domain.
Yeah I'd love to return to it at some point, but yeah I agree please lay off with the Reach retellings lol we've had way too many at this point
HiddenXperia, you know I actually wouldn’t mind a flashback, rpg game. You’d walk around, a ONI Field Agent, or a ODST either one would work, who survived the invasion of reach. it’d be like Fallout : Reach. And If I can remember there are habitable parts of reach, but you have to like kinda gather clues and overtime you realize ONI wants you to find their beloved Spartan-III HeadHunter, who kept contact with those who survived, of course this would occur either earlier or later then Halo: Infinite. It’d be very plot holey but I’m not a paid writer, so.
Jedi Spartan 38 UNSC already reclaimed Reach. What’s the point of going on it again?
Psychotic Trait to terra form it, could be a really good story done right
@@HiddenXperia as you mentioned in your video about the Drones and Brutes.
6:48
Everyone's trying to get their hands on Infinity Stones now?
I get excited every time I get your notification for a new video.
I loved it when that CCS class drifted across New Alexandria and then squirted a cheeky glassing beam just to add to the flex.
You are the most underrated channel that covers halo and its lore, definitely my favorite youtuber since halo hits back home.
And now with your amazing work i can fresh up and learn about new stuff that i would never known if it werent for you. Keep up the good work!!
In the book with hopalong, at least I believe it's that book. It shows how people survive glassing. There is a town that people survived in basements, in bank vaults, basically if they were far enough away from a primary blast and could find somewhere below ground they could survive, of course only with supplies
The lore about Reach is so interesting the invasion, the aftermath. All of it! Love this content keep it up
i would love elites and other former covenant creatures living together with humans some places in the next games
I believe there is one colony where this is happening with elites and humans. Small and it has problems with terrorists
Yeah, I think it’s called Venezia or something
I'm not super into the extended lore of halo but aren't some Sangheili (?) living on earth after the Human-Covenant war?
I'd like to see a buddy buddy cop movie of a human and elite keeping the peace on a shared city.
Been playing video games since 83, but the most fun I ever had with gaming, was playing Reach with my son. The community, campaign, all of it. Thankful for the memories
Roses are red
Violets are brave
Oni already knows
Noble 6 survived in a cave
Love Halo lore keep it up my dude
Imagine a "second" reach game. You play as some of the covert ops and engineer spartans. Exploring the glassed planet of reach. Maybe during the efforts of rehabilitation or ata point where it is safe to explore the surface. Like odst with the whole empty cities and stuff. Or a hidden flood outbreak that escaped because of the glassing. This would be soooo cool
Forerunner sounds like "foreigner" and now I can't stop hearing it when he says it lol
This could make two great future halo additions, it would be interesting to see a sort of halo/skyrim hybrid that took place on reach and eventually concluded on the forerunner capital city. Really would like to see this become a game!
I enjoy how he speaks about their history as if it's our own ... we need speaker like you in classes
I just want to comment early.
Nah, England's much worse.
Northern Ireland is much worse than England.
Your fault for letting migrants in
Neptune is way worse
now Australia’s worse
Martyr if by migrants you mean Anglo Saxons than yeah
Hidden Experia, do a video about ALL the Forerunner constructs, buildings, weapons, tech, A.I., Monitors, Luminaries, etc.
Darkblade Assassin I wager the covenant created the luminaries, because why would the forerunners need devices that tell them what is where?
@@clarkhollingsworth9933 Luminaries are like navigational devices, every ship needs a navigational device.
Darkblade Assassin I know they are, but I’m saying I don’t think the forerunners built luminaries, as there’s no need for them to, I’d be more understanding if they’re a repurposed forerunner technology, just like the guns the covenant use, they’re based upon forerunner tech, but altered enough to not be considered forerunner tech any longer
Xperia, you are so good at this! One of my favorite vids to watch from you in awhile . It'd be a sick sequel to Reach if you play as a Spartan 3 with a rag tag crew of dispatched headhunters to find the lost forerunner city. Jun could be a big player in that story since he could tie up loose ends/find closure from retrieving Halsey and Cortana with noble team. It'd be a sick headhunter story in my book.
Why have enemies when you can have friends? Aka Sangheli Spartans! Hail Yapyap the destoryer
You do Halo's rich lore such justice, your channel is a blessing.
I think glass also comes from the fact that rocking planets often have upper crust layers composed of Silicon Oxide. Silicon oxide turns into glass or tephra when heated.
Similar things happen in explosions in the middle east, where signal flares or really anything explosive can super heat sand to glass.
Thanks for the video hidden, it’s a good thing you made this video as I’ve been working on some non canon lore for Halo with the plan of some of my SII, SIII and SIVs to go back to Reach and it works out perfectly!
Again, thank you for the video, great work.
Listening to this I can't help but imagine a Reach 2 or a full book.
Ruin Paladin I would love to see the reaction of coming back to one of the most traumatic events in human history along with fighting the mutated creatures that must have been created from the glass’s radiation
Shadows of Reach is a book that comes out later this year. Blue team goes back to Reach years after the fall.
Reach: *Manages to survive and wants to be whole again* *Forruner artifacts exsist*
Oni: *ᗩᒪᒪOᗯ ᑌᔕ TO IᑎTᖇOᗪᑌᑕE OᑌᖇᔕEᒪᐯEᔕ*
Epsilon Meme reactor This was almost good, but you spelt *Forerunner and *exist wrong. Also but a comma (,) after again. Then it would be perfect
Now why did you have to do that? Grammar is not important in a joke like this
At one point I was working on a fan made story dealing with an ODST on Reach who got hit by a wraith shot and was saved by a doctor and his son. The ODST would wake up in a bunker with a replaced right arm and a new lower right leg. I had it planned out that the flood would actually be there as well as on Earth. The ODST along with some survivors fought off the flood and left Reach. But I never finished, at the end only a hand full of people would find a way off Reach and make it back to Earth after the war ended. The ODST was going to become a Spartan 4 , but yeah I never finished. Probably would've sucked anyway
Don't know man, I see potential here, I fact the idea you have out sounds awesome. A few intricacies here and there and the story could be much more awesome then you could believe, just keep in mind one thing, halo fans really like to see fan art that stays true to the origin, keep that in mind and they'll love your work even if it's jankey or weird

There getting prepared for E3. Just like every other company that will be there. 24 days left
Reach.. Such an ICONIC planet.. Filled with juicy secrets!
Both because the crystal might powered the ship and the ship might tell them where they are
This video is excellent! Probably the best one you have ever made!
How do we even know it’s a ship? It almost looks to me more like a research base. Or maybe a vehicle bay!?
What I was thinking, in my opinion, it doesn't romotely look like a ship. More of a building I'd say
Keanan F Yeah exactly. Possibly a research base.
I always imagined that it looked like a huuuuge satellite array like the one on winter contingency, anyone else notice?
IvEX0DUSvI That’s true. It does kinda look like a relay station too. You’d think Dr Halsey and Cortana would’ve figured out what the building was for
PackHunter117 mabye they did discover it and kept its info as classified as possible👀
The images at 9:50 depicting the destruction of the base and potentially the Forerunner ship, look almost identical to the new TV shows location of the desert-looking area with the metal shielding.
I bet it's Reach.
Have you guys seen darth vader recently ? I didn't for couple of videos already, this gets me worried
Tactical Camper maybe palps has him hunting down Obi-wan with the inquisitors?
Even if you did survive the initial glassing somehow, I think the extreme temperatures afterwards would vaporize you before the radiation or lack of breathable atmosphere could kill you lol
The secrets were too I C O N I C for the worlds to know
The AI came to the conclusion that it would take 30 years to glass all of Earth because they assume the covenant had the same number of ships the UNSC had and all those ships had glassing beams. Of course, the Covenant had WAY more ships then the UNSC.
So glassing is a faster way of global warming 😂

This is halo m8

It's half buried in a mountain glacier, and looks like a saucer crossed with a ziggurat.

Halo Reach has us discussing its lore almost 10 years later on the opposite side of the spectrum is Halo 5 where I bet most of us can't even remember the story.
Man Reach was so sad, still haven’t recovered
That would be so cool if we went back to reach in a future game, or hell even if this halo tv series ever releases they could do it from the perspective of these covert oni teams looking for artifacts on Reach
Random scavenger? Rion Forge and the crew of the Ace of Spades, including Chakas, say hell yeah.
I never knew that was a Forerunner ship! I just thought it was one of their structures
Thanks for informing me!
I need a future Halo story to go back to Reach and figure all this out, preferably a game but a book would be good too
Another lore video on Reach. Dare i say, ICONIC.
Imagine a survival game based on an old glassed colony, where you have to get necessary materials before a glass storm comes in
Hmmm.... I wonder genuinely how plausible it is that Six could have survived. All things considered, I think it’s possible, but unlikely (especially for them to actually bring him back at all)
