| | | {{Ratings}}The ''Palace of Pain'' was a location on one of the twelve original Halo Installations, specifically the one that the Forerunner AI Mendicant Bias was tasked with overseeing during his mission to destroy the Flood. During the Forerunner-Flood War, it became the stronghold of the Prisoner of Charum Hakkor, the last surviving Precursor. |
| As understood by [[Tudejsa|the People]] transplanted on [[Installation 07]], the '''Palace of Pain''' was a place of unspeakable horror where the [[Forerunner]]s took [[human]]s and experimented on them. Few humans ever returned, and those who did were often "sick" and either died or were killed by the others as a result. However, some returned apparently unharmed.<ref>'''Halo: Primordium''', ''pages 67-68''</ref>

| In actuality, what the humans knew as the "Palace" was in fact the many [[Flood research facility|Flood research facilities]] on the ring, controlled by the [[Contender-class artificial intelligence|artificial intelligence]] [[Mendicant Bias]] under the supervision of [[the Primordial]].<ref>'''Halo: Primordium''', ''page 358''</ref> In the facilities, they experimented on the effects of [[the Flood]] on humans, specifically the supposed immunity exhibited by some of them; however, this "immunity" turned out to be the result of the Flood's ability to choose whether to infect or not.<ref>'''Halo: Primordium''', ''page 364''</ref>
