      The obvious implication in early Halo that humans are just descendants of the Forerunners and everything that is happening is just reenacting this horrific cycle that always ends in massive destruction and forgetting ("I am a monument to all your sins") was really good

      The "clarified" backstory in the nuHalo games that undermined this theme was less good Although the shocking reveal that the Precursors to the Forerunners are the Flood themselves kind of made up for it

      But they really shouldn't have taken the teeth out of Gravemind's introductory statement "I? I am a monument to all your sins"

      Some really good as hell themes in Halo Like the idea that the Halos' primary function is to *forget*, to *erase*, to *cover up* and *start over* And the Flood is a horrifying, monstrous abomination the Halos were built to destroy, because what they do most of all is *remember*

      The whole reversal where the horrifying, genocidal purpose of the Halos almost seems reasonable -- you can see Guilty Spark's POV and that of his creators -- because it's preferable to burn it all to the ground than to be part of a Gravemind that *remembers everything*

      Replying to @arthur_affect @Glides and

      It's somehow more twisted than what the Halos do, viscerally disturbing on this metaphysical level even above the body horror and torture, that a single Flood spore contains the genetic memory of the entire Flood for its entire existence, can recreate any being eaten by the Flood

      As long as the Flood exists it *will not let you die*, will not let *anything* die, and the only way to stop this is to burn out the Flood entirely And that's pretty fucking deep How quickly it becomes clear that eternal life is a curse if it means *remembering everything*

          The mostly-unremarked-upon but significant choice to make one of the core virtues of the Covenant (and title of one of the triumvirate of Prophets) "Regret" Like, to experience the emotion of regret is to be a decent person, is to be capable of virtue

          The refusal to do that, the desire to cling to everything and never let anything die, is why the Flood is the enemy of all
