User:Saberstorm/The Grail (Reborn arc)



The Grail is both a Forerunner artifact and a powerful program designed as an alternative plan in dealing with the Flood, a plan that included the Alter. Unfortunately, it was never completed during the Forerunner-Flood War. It was later located on a Shield World by the UNSC and their allies.

Appearance
While it looks similar to one of the many Indexes on the Halo Installations, it glows with an ominous red light.

Function
Within the Grail was a powerful program the Forerunners were working on that would allow the frequency of the Halo Array to be fine tuned to target Flood supercells, destroying the Flood without risking the lives of every other sentient being in the galaxy. Unfortunately, they were unable to complete the program before the Alter was compromised and the Grial lost.
