Oh my, this has changed everything.
Humans seem to have once been at war with the Forerunners, but the Forerunners won and devolved humanity before exiling them to Earth. A Lifeworker named the Librarian has been charged with preserving them as specimens to study. Forerunners seem to view the humans as lowly, worthless scum for the most part, but the main character appears to realise that they are not so different.
Well, I was certainly wrong. Although it is still possible that the humans are Precursors, and I got the devolving on Earth thing right, even if the specifics are a little wrong.
These genetic commands are interesting too. Do you think the Forerunners might have been pulling the strings of what happens in the main trilogy? What if John is part of a genetic line which was designed to save us? These "genas" could be the reason why only some humans were suitable to become Spartans.
