Several centuries before [[100,000 BCE]], the Flood made landfall on Seaward, marking their first appearance since the [[Human-Forerunner War]]. Their arrival was noted by the [[Auditor]] and [[Prelate]], who used several groundside devices - a trade beacon, a medical station, and a [[Soma|painter's]] [[jetbrush]] - to gather data on the event. They then notified the [[Didact]] of the occurrence. | Several centuries before [[100,000 BCE]], the Flood made landfall on Seaward, marking their first appearance since the [[Human-Forerunner War]].

Presumably concurrent with the above events, a Forerunner administrative group recorded that after a successful post-landfall report, a [[Primary Pioneer Group]] on Seaward had failed to make a follow-up report. The office noting the delinquency also stated that an "Advance Survey Team - Alpha" was to verify the planet's lack of native fauna. Both groups failed to reestablish communication with the office, and those monitoring the two groups advised that they would send a military detachment to the site shortly to uncover why the two exploratory teams had halted communication.<ref group="notes">As the nature of the pioneer group is unclear in the Terminals, it is entirely possible that the community of Forerunners living on Seaward (G617 g) were, in fact, the primary pioneer group or a group of Forerunners associated with it.
