True, but even Gravemind said the same thing, and considering the Flood wiped the Forerunners out (well technically they wiped themselves out to stop the Flood) You'd think an entity as old as Gravemind supposedly is would be able to tell.
It's all just one big confusing mess it seems...
Considering the humans and the prophets were allied during the Humans' war with the Forerunners, you'd think the Prophets would have recognized them, too.
Is this posted somewhere? because I've not heard of this. Ugh, why change things in such a way 343? And BW too since the Dark Energy plotline sounds like it was far more interesting than the whole "destroy you so you won't be destroyed" thing.
Still, really intrigued by Leviathan.
They had an alliance, according to the Halo Wiki.
I believe that info comes from the Halo: Cryptum book.
Ah I see. Sounds more interwsting than humans being Forerunner anyway. Still, it does create a bit of a plothole with Halo 3, which is still annoying imo.
I know this is late, but I wish to clarify the whole thing:
Over 150,000 years, before Humanity even existed, the Precursors were creating races and wiping them out if they were deemed unworhty for the mantle. Eventually they created the Forerunners whom were also deemed unworthy and before they could be wiped out the Forerunners rebeled and killed/banished their creators. As to how they won has been lost to history but subtle hints have risen. The remaining Precursors who fled outside the galaxy created one more race, Humanity. Hundreds of thousands of years later around 150,000 B.C. Humanity had a full fledge galatic empire alongside the Forerunners.
But after discovering a 'powder' in an unknown ship that came from the nearby galaxy, Humans began to experiment with it and realized it had good effects on animals. However the effects eventually changed and thus the animals and those who they infected became the first of the Flood. Which the Precursors also created over 10 million years ago for reasons we only known as being called:
"But the roots of the Flood may be found in an act of enormous barbarity, carried out beyond our galaxy ten million years before...""driven to desperation after losing many of their colonies in their conflict against the Flood, humanity invaded a Forerunner-controlled sector of space and annihilated fifty defenseless systems in which the Forerunners had resettled other species. After the indigenous populations were eliminated, humanity replaced with human colonies to strengthen their hold over their new territories. Devastated by the Flood infestation, humanity looked to forcibly take new worlds anywhere, including those inhabited by Forerunners.[8] The rapid expansion of human technology and power created tensions with the more powerful Forerunner empire, which finally retaliated against the humans, sparking the war.[2] The Didact, commander-in-chief of the Forerunner military, saw humanity as one of the most contentious, bigoted, and self-centered species in the galaxy. Although initially successful in destroying and conquering many Forerunner worlds, humanity was eventually pushed back to Charum Hakkor.[8] Erda was one of the earliest worlds lost to the Forerunners; the loss of their homeworld was a tremendous blow to humanity's morale.[6] Over the course of the war, humanity never came closer than 15,000 light years of the Orion complex, the center of Forerunner power.[9] "During this war, the Foreunners aside from a few ever learned about the Flood since Humanity sacrifieced 1/3 of it's population to the Flood to push them out of the Galaxy. So Humanity lost because it had been fighting a two-front war. When the war was finished they were going to annihilate the species but because of the Librarian they simply banished them to Earth under the protection of the Librarian. Thus because of her feelings for Humanity they were deemed Reclaimers, and because mostly like the two Humans, Riser and Chakas who accompied the Didact and Bornstellar in Cryptum.
During Cryptum it was discovered that Humanity had found a cure for the Flood, but then in Primoridum the Timeless one said that it was fake. That the Flood simply didn't infect as to give them false hope. Thus revealing that there is no real cure for the Flood.
Then the Forerunner-Flood war began and we all know how it ended with the activation of the Halo Array's thus wiping all life in the galaxy. That is why the San'Shuuym despite having an alliance with Humanity in ancient times don't remember it.
Hope that helps! These are the links that I used to get information from, but granted knew most of it off the top of my head. But here you go.
