u guys know in Halo: CE humanity 1st discovered the Flood, but in Halo Origins II before the events of CE humanity and the Covenant fought 2gether briefly 2 stop the Flood. Now who here agrees that the statement in Origins II kinda ruins the canon of when humans discovered the Flood, and yes Halo Wars jacked that canon fact as well. Comment. :D

No, the Humans and Covenant never teamed up to defeat them, and just for you're information, that was AFTER CE, =]

<(-_-)> Teh mokey is not amused

The spirit of fire was lost in space without a slipspace drive and so could not make it back to UNSC territory and inform others about the flood.

Yes, really

Please read "Halo: Cryptum"

It makes this statement void.

Not everything in Halo Legends is 100% canon, especially not in Origins II, that one is very loosely based on the reality of the Haloverse and almost non-canon. You can't take Halo Legends at face value, they're great stories, but not entirely accurate.

How do you interpret Origins II in that way?
1) They were on the ark.
2) At no point were Brutes and Humans/Elites fighting side-by-side against the flood. It was a 3-way-war montage.

It can be assumed it was indeed non-cannon but only because Cortana was telling the story and she was going rampant so her memory banks could've been mixing information around and the history was messed up.
