Glory and fame, blood is our name!
Souls full of thunder, hearts of steel!
Killers of men, a warrior's friend!
Sworn to avenge our fallen brothers!
Sons of the gods, today we shall die.
Open Valhalla's door!
Let the battle begin, with swords in the wind! Hail Gods of War!
Gravemind (or the Primordial at this point) didn't know about the new Alpha Halo, until John got Cortana back. I see it this way, he went "all in" on the Ark, and didn't bother spreading out among the galaxy once he broke the Elite blockade at Inst. 05. Once Inst. 04-2 fired, it destroyed itself, ruined the Ark, and killed all flood within 25K Light Years. (I suspect that Mendicant Bias is working to repair the Ark, tho. Cortana speculated that they only damaged it, not destroyed it.)
On a side not, I hope 2401 managed to get things back in order over on Delta Halo, and wasn't flat-out killed by GM.
