The Flood: What Happens When You Kill God | Halo Lore
Halo isn’t just military sci-fi; it is a story about what happens when you kill God. In this episode of Acceptable Losses, we are joined by PancreasNoWork to dive deep into the cosmic horror of the Flood.
We explore the origins of the parasite, tracing it back to the dusting of the ancient Precursors and the terrifying "Logic Plague" that corrupted the Forerunners' greatest AI. From the lie of the Ancient Human "cure" to the reality-warping final days of the Forerunner-Flood war, we break down why the Flood is the ultimate grimdark threat.
