BE HUMAN

Fight for Earth. Fight for Humanity.

The halo universe is a very complex and expansive story, starting with the precursurs being overthrown by their "children" the forerunners, and them colonising the entire galaxy and warring with "-blam!- sapien sapiens" (an apparent branch of humanity far more superior to regular humans today) and eventually ending with the end of the Covenant and the flood. But the entire line of halo books, games and short films are all aimed at the end of the timeline, when there is over one hundred thousand years of history that has just been more or less brushed under the carpet.

For example, "-blam!- sapien sapiens", basically cavemen with technology matching the forerunners at tier one on the technological evolution chart actually going to war with their, quite literally, forerunners. I mean, come on, that's a really big thing to just kind of ignore. Humans with stupidly amazing technology battling and attempting to overthrow their creators. It just does not get any better then that. Also, the forerunners were apparently created by the precursors...what the hell is a precursur!? I sure as hell want to know these things and see them either in books, films or even games.

Well this topic is being done to death.

I really really just wish Greg Bear didn't fantasize a perfectly good back story canon with Cryptum.

He did do something right though... He took the unknown race that is the Forerunners and turned them into a species that matches the Culture in some respects, passing them in others.
