Maybe the prophets are forerunners and are deceiving the covenant and using them to reactivate the halos and kill off the flood. I mean if the humans could figure out that halo was a weapon the prophets must know what it dose. They probably want to wipeout the humans because the object under the earth is some kind of failsafe device that can disable all the halos and they don’t want to risk them getting to it and now they are trying to destroy it. or there is somthing else we dont know about the humans that could case the prophets to fear them.
They did not leave them there ancestors did and they needed to find them to locate the halos.
Your kidding right?
In the books it says the Prophets land on one of the old Forerruners planet , make it there home find an artifact..
Which I assume begins the Holy crusade that there on.
Why would they find artifacts that they left a long time ago?......a treasure hunt?
They didn’t leave them there ancestors did, and they need to find them to locate the halos.
dude, u gave me something to think about there. what if (as has been theorised for sometime) the forerunners created the flood as a first shot at attempting life. this failed miserably so the flood was imprisoned, but the forerunners then struck gold with the prophets. the forerunners created the prophets with the flood in mind, so that when the halos were activated the prophets survived. the forerunners then left it to the prophets to ensure the halos were activated again if needed, but then found "the reclaimers" then told them to do it, without the prophets knowing, hence the prophets' hatred of humans.
that is why regret is not fully assimilated by gm, he is immune, that is why mercy is not floodied my the infection form that gets him.
i like that theory.
The Prophets evolved on a planet that the Forerunners were said to have inhabited. That is why they are the leaders of the Covenant. If they were forerunners, then they would not have misinterpruted artifacts that they found that told of the Halos and what they did. They thought that the Halos would send them to some kind of afterlife, and that's what happened to all the forerunners. We know otherwise becuse 343GS says in Halo 2, "After exausting every other strategic option, my creators activated the Rings. They, and all other life [in the galaxy] died, as planned." (bracked portion may not be exact words used) So all the Forerunners are dead. They left behind evidence of what happened to them, which was misread by the Prophets. The end.
Please don't ask me where I got all this information, I've collected it from a large number of (respectable) sourses, but didn't keep records of what info came from where.
Like I said they could have deliberately misinterpreted the artifacts to deceive the covenant so they could use them to locate the rings.
