The Terminals in ''Halo 3'' are a continuation of the ''[[Iris]]'' alternate reality game used as viral marketing for ''Halo 3''. They clarify a great deal of the Iris story line by naming the authors of different messages and by explaining the circumstances of the original firing of the [[Halo Array]]. The Terminals follow the stories of [[the Librarian]] and [[the Didact]], [[Forerunner]] logs of [[the Flood|Flood]] attacks, and [[Mendicant Bias]]'s progression into [[rampancy]].
