After | After reclaiming Installation 07, the [[IsoDidact]] imprisoned the Primordial within a reverse-[[Timelock|stasis chamber]], and alongside the wounded [[Chakas]], interrogated the entity. During the course of their conversation, they came to realize that the Primordial was not what they initially thought it was. Even as it was being broken down by the reversed stasis chamber, the Primordial claimed that the Flood and the Precursors were synonymous, though despite the Didact's queries, it did not disclose the precise nature of their relationship. The Primordial provided further clarification on the subject of the Mantle, the purpose of the Flood, and the role of the humans in its ancient plan: the Forerunners were never meant to inherit the Mantle, and that humanity would succeed them in order to be tested for inheriting the Mantle.<ref name="prim362">'''Halo: Primordium''', ''pages 362-365''</ref> | ||
It also implied that there is no true cure for the Flood, but that it could choose whether or not a victim was infected.
