...want to hear something strange? Just a few of my thoughts..
I think that multiple races were in an 'Old Covenant', The Forerunners, Prophets, Elites, Brutes, etc..We would've lal been on friendly terms, and we were the strongest, and most technologically advanced race around at that time.
The Flood were encountered/created, blah blah. We made the Halos, with the help of the other races in the Covenant, we made sure that we were the only ones that could activate them (security reasons?)
The Prophets are obviously a power-hungry race...they could've been out for power..the Ring's being activated, and all the Races needing to essentially 'start over" on their home planets, via surviving in their respective Arks woul've been the pwerfect time to do so.
The Prophets got the Elites waged a war, and eventually the Prophets persuaded the Elites to form a [new] Covenant with them..they began to gather all of the races again, and over time seperated the Forerunners from the humans
Why do this? Maybe they were hoping to use our original allies, and close friends to kill us off, so they could be in our position for once (Ultimate Power) and then discarding their "instruments" (Elites) during Halo 2, hoping to kill them off with the Rings?
