"As you watch this battle unfold I have already seen the final act! It is my destiny to lead the way for all mankind!" "I am the future!" QUOTE Remember that tablet that Kane had in his palace in Renegade? In a vid at the end of C&C TD during the credits?
It depicts something important, and gives you a clue as to his origins.
(note, this is not the exact tablet he's talking about, but it portrays the same thing)
My theory: According to a prophecy, Abel was to be the messiah-figure that would bring victory over the Scrin, however Caïn became jealous so he killed him because he wanted to be the leader, and in the process Caïn/Kane tampered with prophecy.
QUOTE QUOTE What was he then? Something Renegade suggested, or?
(Ignore this question if im out of line).
Or at least: Was he human?
Because one trivial bit of TW suggests hes neither Scrin nor human ("Dna unidentified" or something). Kane is human, his fate tied to Earth's fate. Kane sees the Scrin as an escape from his prison.
QUOTE Kane wasn't an alien in the WW fiction.
QUOTE QUOTE Anything you want to share about how it WOULD have been? QUOTE We went back and forth on just where the Tacitus came from, but the translation of it is really the key -- what some may interpret as a warning from it could really be written prophecy or even an instruction manual to other eyes, depending on who is reading it and what they want to get from it.
I'm curious to see where EA goes with the Tacitus now. There's several directions they could take it in from where we had it post TS/FS. Given the C&C3 story, they didn't really expand on its origin one way or another, since again, its message is open to interpretation.
