I don't know why,but when I think of the Grim,I now think about the TRUE origins of the Flood,the Precursors,the Humans,and the Forerunners,and can't help but feel that something similar is being reflected here. As explained in the Forerunner Saga of the books,the Precursors created EVERYTHING in this galaxy,including the Forerunners and Humans. They favoured Humans,Forerunners didn't like it and rebelled,and the few that survived either died off or became a "dust"-like substance,which would their future revenge. Discovered by Humans and initially thought harmless,this "dust" soon showed itself as the Flood,and forced Humanity into a war with the Forerunners for survival. Humans thought they created a cure,but he Flood in reality let them live,shortly before their decimation into a primitive state by the Forerunners. This victory was short,and the Flood fought the Forerunners to the point of the Halos' activation. The rest is in the games. Hmm. Dust. Grim. Humanity's tools against the Grim being Dust. The "dust" being the end of the Forunners,formed from their creators. Precursors = Humans,Flood = Dust,Forerunners = Grim. HOLY SH*T! I JUST BLEW MY OWN MIND! Dust is the key!
