I was just watching Halo Legends (again), and I came across something interesting.
If you have seen the Halo 4 Art Trailer, you will understand what I am talking about.
Near the end of Origins II it show's some very interesting scenes. First, it shows Chief receiving Cortana from an organism resembling the Gravemind. Which didn't happen between Reach and Halo 3, in the way it is depicted. Then, it shows 343 Guilty Spark transporting Chief to a nearly constructed Halo over The Ark, which also did not happen. Both of those may be artistic or symbolic expression, but it is worth noting.
The thing that really caught my attention was what happens at the end of that scene. The camera then zooms in to the center of The Ark, where the Halo arrays are constructed. It then proceeds to turn into a bright red light, which almost resembles an eye. And if you have seen the Halo 4 Concept Art trailer, this might ring a bell. It greatly resembles the unidentified enemy at the end, and it even sounds almost identical. This has been speculated to be The Last Precursor, which would tie in very nicely.
Something else, which is much more abstract, was also noticed. Cortana's hologram started to flicker red, which I assume is from her current/or barely averted rampancy. Her eyes then proceed to also turn red. I have heard speculation on the web, that the Gravemind may literally be a voice the Precursor. Could Cortana have been imprinted by The Precursor/Gravemind?
Any thoughts, ideas, criticisms or corrections would be appreciated!
Thanks,
Colton
