Re: The religious facade of the Prophets.

In Response To: The religious facade of the Prophets. (DD)

: Anyways, does the Prophet of Supposition define his audience in his letter?
: Is it for the eyes of the prophets only, or is it for all the Covenant to
: read? This letter could be no more than a sneaky effort to explain to the
: Elites, Grunts, etc. the "surprise" the Prophets felt at the
: discovery of the flood.

: The prophets may know this letter is a lie for propaganda, but the prophets
: may not be the intended audience.

It's only concern is the Prophet of Truth. I'll post the letter..

Submitted humbly by your servant. The Prophet of Supposition

The Flood: A Question of Faith

In our search for truth and answers from the forerunner legacy we have discovered many gifts, but never a curse. The discovery of Halo was the greatest bequest to our faith in a thousand years, but it came at a price. The atrocity committed by the Humans was devastating, but the discovery of the Flood within Halo, was perhaps as troubling.

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 conquerred? Or are they an article of faith? Nature tells us to strike back when we are ourselves struck, but this event ws unprecedented. Are we to rail against the wrath of god?

Our scienntists will analyse 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?

I submit to your appraisal.
