that poem i think almost gave away the story of the game.
at first, i thought, "this is the way the world ends" was refering to the master cheif.
but its not (i think)
im thinking its reffering to the master cheif, thats what the first part of the poem is hinting to you
I have defied gods and demons
I am your shield, i am your sword
I know you, your past, your future
cortana has become a super wise AI that has realized, that the master cheif will decide the fate of the universe, because, cortana has guided him all the way, giving him the wisdom of the planets and species he's met and others he hasn't. also, the "i know you, your past, your future" part, is refering to that cortana has been inside his head and has learned all about him, his personality, his past, what he has done/doing. and with that information, is predicting weither the master cheif will let the arc fire or not, because she knows that he thinks that many things in this universe dont deserve to exist, and only few deserve to,
so the main point is, the game will lead to the MC getting to the arc, and deciding weither to let life live, or die, depending on how much it diserves either one
thats just what i think.
