In Response To: Re: The Ambitions of an AI (Stephen L. (SoundEffect))

: From the Conversations From The Universe pamphlet, a report from one Prophet
: to another ends with this: "Humans we know and understand. They are
: vermin to be trampled. But the Flood was unexpected. Were they placed
: there as a test of our faith? Are they an enemy to be conquered? Or are
: they an article of our faith? Nature tells us to strike back when we are
: ourselves struck, but this event was unprecedented. Are we to rail against
: the wrath of god?

: Our scientists will analyze the scraps and fragments we recovered, and as
: ever, we will find use for what we have learned. Perhaps this Flood could
: be, if not an ally, then a weapon. The Forerunners have blessed us with
: obscure gifts in the past. This Flood hammered the Human forces every bit
: as hard as our own.

: We cannot assume the Flood is gone; after all, it must have sprung from some
: source.

: The Flood, it seems, was imprisoned on Halo, but what if we calculated
: incorrectly? What if the Flood had sanctuary there?"

: From that exchange, it doesn't seem as though the Covenant have known about
: the flood prior to their releasing it on Installation 04. If the Spec Ops
: Commander was present then, it would add meaning to his line, "That
: stench...I've smelled it before..."

ah, canon source. i must be recalling one too many HBO forum theories on the "100,000 years war".
