>> Eternity: When the galaxy is reseeded and the parasite eradicated, you will emerge unscathed. The last vestige of our kind. You will warn the future races of our greatest enemy, if they are to have any hope of defeating it were it to ever return. <<
>> Remnant: You mentioned that I am a beacon as well as a warning? <<
>> Eternity: This is not the end of the Forerunners. Eventually, we will return, stronger than ever before. You will be our [vanguard, harbinger]. The Mantle is our responsibility and our responsibility alone. You will see to it that it remains this way. <<
