Question on the Forerunners [Possible Spoilers]
Now, if you haven't beaten Halo 4 yet, there may be some spoilers here. So stop reading. OK?
As we learn in Halo 4, the Forerunners and Humans already made contact millenna ago and a war broke out. The Forerunners put us essentially back into the Stone Age. Now here's my question; is this something Bungie had already established in the Halo universe or is this something 343 added? I'm really sorry if this is a silly question, I don't know as much about Halo's overall storyline as I'd like to.

It's essentially something that 343i has added, but the Librarian's dialogue in Halo 3's Terminals with the Didact carries the implication that the Forerunners have had a pretty negative effect on the races they were supposed to protect. [quote][i]Can't you see? Belief in the Mantle sealed our doom! Weakened our [protectorates], bred dependence and sloth. [b]Our [so-called Guardianship] has stripped those we would keep safe of any capacity for self-defense![/b][/i][/quote] This can be applied perfectly to the situation with Ancient Humanity.
