Okay, here we go.
Spark has repeated stated that John is Forerunner, and even implied he was at the original firing of the rings. (I know he is confused)
Mendicant Bias stated that he is once again betraying a former master.
John is called Reclaimer more than any other human.
This leads me to this conclusion: At the end of the central Halo story, John somehow travels back in time, meets the Forerunners and activates the rings himself.
Bornstellar is his opposition, angry that the actual Didact was killed by the maker of the rings, and ends up wanting to destroy them.
Chakas
A long time ago , I was a living, breathing human being. I went mad. I served my enemies. They became my only friends.
Since then, I've traveled back and forth across this galaxy, and out to the spaces between galaxies-a greater reach than any human before me.
You have asked me to tell you about that time. Since you are the last true Reclaimer , I must obey. Are you recording? Good. Because my memory is failing rapidly. I doubt I'll be able to finish the story.
Once, on my birth-world, a world I knew as Erde-Tyrene, and which now is called Earth, my name was Chakas...
Well, what do you think? Sure, the other points maybe wrong, but the main point is that the Chief ends up firing the rings for himself :).
