With B.B. gone, the passion of Bungie.net has lessened.
In the beginning of First Strike, Cortana notices (while she's in the Ascendant Justice) that there are Covenant ships inbound to Halo's system after Halo was destroyed... She thinks its something like a memorial service dedicated to Halo.
In the Flood, 343 Guilty Spark specifically states that he is self-repairing (which is why he can't be killed by known weapons). ... What if he isn't the only thing that is self-repairing? I'm thinking more along the lines of Halo itself. Maybe the Covenant were going there to watch the self-reconstruction of the Halo construct. Although Cortana should've known that it would be self-repairing (if it was), she was overlooking and neglecting some important information during the course of that book, due to the mass Halo data... maybe when she got into the Control Center she overlooked that aspect, too.... If she did, that'd be a kick in the pants, wouldn't it? That would give 343 reason to hunt Cortana down in Halo 2 and get the index back, so he'd be able to activate Halo (since he might be programed to do so when there is a Flood outbreak.... and its possible that the destruction of Halo didn't convince him that the Flood on that Halo were completely killed).
Just something to think about.
