I am a monument to all your sins

For those of you who read the two chapers of Halo: Cryptium, you know the character Morning riser? he was described by Born as being a Florian. there was a species of Human that lived at aproximatly 100,000 BC called H omo floresiensis, sound familiar?
now read the section on the anatomy of the H omo floresiensis. It is described as having no chin, being approximatly one meter tall, and having a small brain. all of these attributes are described as belonging to morning riser in Cryptium. this just goes to show some of the detail and realism Bear put into his book, even in light of all the improbible things in it, like the early humans having an interstellar civilization. this makes me want to read the whole book even more

Bend it like Barrera

I bet they wanted to give a fresh start to the humans so they erased their memories. (by hitting them in their respective heads)

the sub-race that started with a K (had a long, complicated name) also existed: the Neanderthals.

Greg Bear himself said this story answers our own real mysteries and is about human origins.

I don't care. I really don't.

Yeah, I want this book so much now.

Screw Darwinism, I think we should campaign for Haloism to be taught in schools.

By the power of truth, I, while living, have conquered the universe.

I've had enough of your insincere speculations. *Smacks OP.*

In the future, Bungie will be worshiped as prophets if that happens. I'm gonna be a Haloist for now on!

insincere how? based on evidence, I am merely stating that Greg Bear likely intended riser to be a H omo Floresiensis
