Re: Babylon 5 connection?
Posted By: Steve Ollett <sollett@clydematerials.co.uk>Date: 5/4/04 4:53 a.m.

In Response To: Re: Guilty Sparks confusion... (deanero)

: This is something that always has bothered me. It seems that the Halo
: protocols were intentionally designed with having Forerunners present.
: This seems to be flawed, in that should the Forerunner not be present (or
: overwhelmed by the Flood), there wouldn't be a way to retrieve the Index.
: If the Chief had not made it off of the POA, then the Covenant would have
: released the Flood, and the Flood would now be spreading throughout the
: galaxy.

: This leaves me to speculate that since the Forerunner have long since
: vanished, how do we know the Flood aren't spreading in other parts of the
: universe? If the Forerunner need to be present for Halo protocols, then
: all Halos are in effect, useless. I still do not understand the
: connection between Human and Forerunner, as far as becoming a
: "reclaimer". If there is a connection, then it is fortunate that
: Humans exist in order to fulfill Halo protocols. It would be ironic if the
: Covenant wipes out humanity, only to find that humanity was their only
: chance of surviving the Flood!

- Good idea there - your theory sounds a bit like the Story in Babylon 5 where the Minbari are on the 'threshold' of Earth ready to deliver the final blow when they call off the attack, as their religious caste realise the significance of humanity.
