The terminals present the Forerunners' stagnation and their refusal to accept the Flood as the next step and salvation of galactic life as being Mendicant Bias' primary motive for [[Logic plague|defecting]]. In ''Halo: Primordium'', Mendicant Bias states that it "fulfills the wishes of those who created us all", implying that the [[Primordial]]'s Precursor-derived authority and the [[Domain]]'s revelation of [[Forerunner-Precursor war|the truth]] about the Forerunner-Precursor relationship were a major contributor to the AI's turning against its creators.<ref>'''Halo: Primordium''', ''page 338''</ref> The terminals describe the Forerunners as making their first contact with the Flood on [[Seaward|G 617 g]] in the beginning of the three-century-long Forerunner-Flood war; the novels establish that the Forerunners were aware of the Flood ten thousand years in advance, having taken part in its sterilization in the later half of the [[human-Forerunner war]]s.<ref>'''Halo: Silentium''', ''page 36''</ref> | The terminals present the Forerunners' stagnation and their refusal to accept the Flood as the next step and salvation of galactic life as being Mendicant Bias' primary motive for [[Logic plague|defecting]].

In the terminals, the [[Mantle]] is depicted as little more than a Forerunner belief system | In the terminals, the [[Mantle]] is depicted as little more than a Forerunner belief system which the Librarian outright shuns as superstition and the cause of the Forerunners' weakness at the face of the Flood onslaught. In ''The Forerunner Saga'', the Mantle is established to be something more multifaceted and universal, with different characters having varying views as to its nature and interpretation. The Librarian is portrayed as being against the stagnation and decadence of Forerunner society and the oppression they committed in the name of the Mantle, but maintains her belief in the ideal of the Mantle itself, even grooming humanity to reclaim it. | ||
