By the time the human officials discovered what the powder had done, it was too late. Entire planets were infected, and the Flood began to ravage worlds and systems. This also initiated the Human-Forerunner War, because humans, blinded by desperation, began forcefully taking worlds from other species to make up for the ones they lost to the Flood. When the humans attempted to quarantine the worlds, more infected escaped, and thus a drastic measure was invented. Despite how sacrificial it was, it worked. | By the time the human officials discovered what the powder had done, it was too late.

The human leaders decided to take a third of the population and genetically alter them by inserting genes designed to fight Flood biomass and destroy the Flood gene imprints. They then took this third of the population and "fed" them to the Flood. The new genes aggressively killed off Flood biomatter and destroyed the Flood until the few that survived were forced to escape. They would not reappear for another 9,000 years. | The human leaders decided to take a third of the population and genetically alter them by inserting genes designed to fight Flood biomass and destroy the Flood gene imprints.
