In Response To: Gravemind's final Riddle ****Spoilers***** (GryphonOsiris)

We've got a lot of comedians on today.

: He might recognize one of the species and can't understand why they have such
: seemingly primative equipment and do not know the true purpose of Halo and
: the Flood. Now we all are pretty sure that the Covies weapons are bad
: knock offs of the Forerunner weapons, as we have seen with the Sentinel's
: beam cannons. Those he would have some recognition of, though it would be
: like comparing a Matchlock to a P-90. The human projectile weapons would
: be troubling as the forerunners had moved past metal slug weapons long
: before they met the Flood. This is all heading towards him recognizing
: humans, and maybe even more so, Master Chief's armor as being the
: Forerunners.(Side note, obviously Forerunner's didn't call themselves
: that, as it implies that they knew they came first, that they would fall,
: and that others would follow them).

Hmm - you're assuming humans are Forerunners, which not all of us do. Humans may be Reclaimers, and THAT is what Gravemind recognises. Do not assume young grasshopper!

: Just a Rampant thought on a three verse musing of the greatest threat to life
: since plaid polyester pants.

I dunno, Stuntmutt's puns are pretty bad too. Nice speculation, and I'm particularly worried about Gravemind in possession of that slip space drive, unpowered or not. Why doesn't Cortana blow the reactors already!? I think we might have more to worry about in Halo 3 (note - I am in no way endorsing the opinion that there is, or ever will be a Halo 3 in production) than just a random Prophet on Earth . . .
