Re: Why the name Reclaimer? Here's why. *Long*

In Response To: Re: Why the name Reclaimer? Here's why. *Long* (K-man)

: Didn't the Covenant release the Flood? The Covenant opened the cotainment
: center, tried to seal it, then the humans came along and opened it while
: the humans on the ground level were getting infected.

I'd always thought that too. In the book Halo: The Flood, wasn't Keyes searching for a weapons cache based on information picked up on the Covenant battlenet which led him directly to the Flood? In PoA Cortana notes that when the Covenant are destroying the lifeboats they "really don't want us on that ring..." and in TaR Keyes relays that the Covenant kept saying "Whoever controls Halo controls the fate of the universe." .

All this suggests that the Covenant knew about the Flood before we got there. Weren't there already Covenant ships present at Halo when we came out of slipspace?
