I've GOT it!
The voice is not gravemind, its the arbiter. you might like to be reminded that the MC is in space at the end of halo 2 and must get to earth, and have the ODF destroyed before it can be overrun by the covenant. In that time, it's most likely that the arbiter will head back for cortana. the reason it's so distorted is because its from such a distance, and the line "I am your sword" suggests that the arbiter is saying he will metaphorically br the chiefs weapon and do the work that needs to be done there. oh yeah, and if you look on my clutter page, here, , you can quite clearly see the same pattern as the ring from the frame at 0:54 on the back of the banshee (the red mark). if you need to copy it and zoom in and stuff. She says i know your past and your future because of gravemind, who from halo 2 is clearly knowledgeable. it suits gravemind's personality to ask cortana some questions, mafia style [rhetorical]. for example, "do you know why he killed your mother". not something gramind would ask cortana, but mafia style in the sense that he has the answers in his head already. that's the most likely outcome.
