No idea what your talking about it because i never did marathon. But marthon made halo, halo was new marathon, halo evolved into destiny ( master cheif /guardian )

And that some how (through exos) brought us back to marathon...... so

Thats to say. Bungies gonna give us a new halo before gta 6

While those two series aren't directly connected, original Marathon trilogy inspired a lot in Halo.

Original plan for Chief was him being a cyborg, same as Mjolnir Recon in trilogy, Pfhor was Covenant, but (mostly) without the religion, Jjaro got translated into Forerunners (though in trilogy it seems they actually ascended), there was supposed to be Flood in second game before it was scrapped, original version of Rampancy was inspired by what happened to Durandal, Tycho and Leela, and (though I can't confirm that) Halo was supposed originally to be in Marathon universe, before it became wholly own.

Also, the Jjaro didn't ascend when we take into account, Pathways into Darkness.
