- A single intelligence inhabiting multiple instances.
- A Gravemind is the apex of the Flood's coordinating intelligences. It is a
- monument of ancient sins; a self-aware compound mind that transcends
- individual hosts and lesser key minds; a formless intellect who knows all that
- the Flood have ver possessed.
- The Gravemind brings its horrific form of peace through unification, salvaton
- through assimilation. Its only goal is the consumption of every thinking creature
- in the galaxy. The Gravemind's most recent physical avatar was destroyed
- when the Master Chief fired the Ark's incomplete Halo, but it is only a matter of
- time before it rises again.
