Re: Halo Effect absolutely kills Flood

In Response To: Re: Halo Effect absolutely kills Flood (Cthulhu117)


: It's not a Gravemind Moment, just a voiceover in the middle of a battle. Kind
: of hard to hear.

Yeah, I knew that the flood/GM says something there, but I never could tell what and I assumed it was one of the battle taunt-esque things he sometimes says
Thank you for edifying me

: At least, he's lost. Permanent death is obviously impossible without the
: extermination of every single Flood form in existence.

I wonder if, in any future developments within the franchise, we'll find out more about the origins of the flood
We've pretty much determined, I think, that they're of extragalactic origin, but the question that always nags at me is whether they were expanding for more resources or were driven out

One thing to keep in mind is that after they've infected everything in an area, they have to move on to another (think Smith's speech to Morpheus in the Matrix). It's possible that they arose in, say, Andromeda and were driven out by some race there, to come to the Milky Way to try their fortunes, or it is possible that they consumed everything everywhere else in the universe and that our galaxy is the last with any life before they "do the rounds" again, so to speak, to infect any new life forms that have arisen, or any of a myriad degrees in between.

Half of what we, or at least I, have learned about the Flood is just how much we have yet to learn
