OK, me and some friends got into a conversation about what Cortana says...
Well what we have come to believe is since she has been the Data bases of multiple Halo's and has been left with Gravemind at the end of Halo 2, not to mention if you read the books AI's begin to become inferior or die after 7 years...
We believe that either since he had hacked into the Halo's Databses, that perhaps by chance maybe a Forerunner AI could have possibly countered her and fused personalities with her, or that during her time with Gravemind, king of the flood, she had somehow been corrupted by him...
This conversation could go on forever im sure because ranting on about what she says can be quite interested even though she says 4 small sentances...
"I have defied God's and Demons"... I think that this could mean that she has basically defying life and death... But being an AI, how? Not sure, if this is what it means, it'll be in the game...
"I am your shield and your sword."... quite possibly this could mean that well, Cortana is a super AI and since all of the human's force's have been annihilated, that means she is quite possibly the only human AI left, and leaving the possibility that she herself could be a super weapon...
"I have seen your past, and your future."... Well, basically the whole thing about his past is quite obvious since her being as powerful as she is for an AI, and being able to acess many many records before Reach was destroyed, she possibly had plenty of time to read up on Master Chief, and she has been with him for an enormous period of time so, that parts makes sense... In the manner that she could just happen to be a Forerunner though, well... They were responsible for the Halo's i don't see why they wouldn't be able to see the future... They quite possibly couldv'e forseen their own deaths...
"This is how the world ends." Explains itself ratherwuite dramatically though.. This sentance in the Trailor could just very well be trying to make you question yourself, will the Covenant manage to activate the Forerunner techgnology? Will Master Chief die? What will happen to Earth? Many question are here to be asked and learned in time. Well it is very well possible since there is Forerunner technology on Earth, "What a Twist!", that the Forerunners very well could be our gods and that they had been so technologically advanced, that they had created our race...
Well, this is my two cents on this subject, and this is my very first post :)
