what if gravemind is like the heart of the flood what if you kill him. Maybe the flood would all die because he died. that would probably be the only way to get rid of the flood without killing everyone.

Gravemind is actually the First flood. In the level gravemind of Halo 2 you can see spores all around you in the room. Well, when the covanant opend up that room and released those spores, The Flood was released. They immedeatly sealed the room again with all of the infected inside, But they reproduced and got out again when the humans came on looking for the " Wepons Cache ". That was a big uh-oh. Because the flood was released. Thats why in Halo: CE, The first flood comatants that you face are indeed Battle Ready COVANANT forms. The same procedure happend with Delta Halo. The damn covies just dont learn. Darn.

hes the 1st flood so it kinda supports my theory that they could be a part of him and if he dies they die.

Facts are the enemy of tru7h....

I think you're kind of right.... Basically the gravemind is the big brain of the flood. Kill it and the flood becomes disorganised... of course they still would have their instincts and the knowledge gained from the host that they are infesting. But they probably wouldn't behave tactically.... as least not until another gravemind (or something similar) could be build.

He isn't the first flood, he is the eventual outcome of a flood outbreak. He is made up of the bodies of the floods enemies and fallen combat forms.

It says so in the Art of Halo book... well it at least says that the Gravemind is made of the bodies of the Floods fallen enemies... So it can't be the first because there had to be flood there in the first place to create it.
