So I just finished reading the book, and I assume the captive is Gravemind?
So Gravemind is an infected Precurser?

Any ideas? This -blam!- has got me scratching my head.

This has nothing to do with the Forerunners.

The Prisoner is a Precurser and at the time of his release was not infected by the Flood. It is implied that he will later be infected and become the Gravemind. There was some quote I can't remember offhand; "The Flood will soon fin a new leader" or something like that.

Yeah that quote sounds about right. But there is yet to be any confirmation of The Timeless One being infected by the flood.

Though it can be said its almost an obvious outcome. We'll know for sure later.

Well, I think it's pretty obvious that the two are meant to be connected in some way, I can't say how it will play out, and I don't really want to since I'd rather just wait for the second book, but yeah, Captive=Gravemind.
