  1. Ugh, the date 12551 bugs me. It’s 2551 in Halo, not 12551. Other than that, I love your story. Very well done

    1. 12551 is correct for the holocene date. All UEG/UNSC timekeeping in this story will be demarcated in the Human Era/Holocene Calendar system, because the Common Era is a bad year numbering system and I don't like using it

      1. I don’t know, mate. I feel it detracts from the otherwise beautiful story, but to each their own

        1. If you don't like digressions from canon, you probably aren't going to like the sequel

          1. Naw, that ain’t the part I don’t like. The date is very clearly 2551. The “1” in front looks like a damn typo every single damn time, but that’s just me. Just bothers me enough to take away from the story, but isn’t a big problem

            1. Fair enough.

              I'm glad you like the story otherwise. I intend to post the sequel eventually, but work and natural disasters have been causing me a lot of undue stress lately... I doubt it'll be done before the end of 12020.

                Good one 😂. Well done👏.
                I’ll look forward to the sequel! I hope your stressors die down for you and I wish you the best of luck
