We are all going to get banned aren't we?

with cryptum out all of us have been doing alot of thinking so let me start some brainstorming.


We know that at the end of cryptum that the forerunners were created by the precursors and thus it is safe to assume that the same is said for the humans.

now some tidbits.

1.With the best of forerunner knowledge they could only guess that Earth was our homeworld.

2.Humans were on the same technological level if not slighty higher than the forerunners. this implied by The didact as he states the forerunners only won due to the humans being down to 1/3 of their population.

3.The humans were able to find a "cure" for the flood where the forerunners could not.

What am jumping the gun on is a slight chance that the humans might be the forerunner to the "forerunners" in a sense or actually. with the off chance of being older than they are and being able to defeat the flood are sure hints at such an outcome.
I only assume that the forerunners find this out by some means which is why the deemed us the true heralds of the mantle and left us to reclaim what was once ours (lost during the war).


This is only a brief idea i have around in my head so i wanted it to be short, feedback?

Interesting idea, good evidence supports this.
