Subject: Yet another theory based on Cortanas words.

"Your destruction is the will of the gods, and we are their instruments."

What if.... Cortana has been taken over by a Forerunner AI. Cortana said, that she noticed an AI aboard the Forerunner ship on High Charity. So If Cortana has indeed been taken over by a Forerunner AI, then the AI could be saying those things about the Arc. "I have defied gods and demons" could mean, that the Arc has defied the Forerunners and the Flood. "I am your shield, i am your sword" could mean, that the Arc is humanitys greatest weapon, and also it´s protector.

Indeed she does. Sorry about that, but there are far worse misspells in the forums :)

Oh my God! I was starting to think I was the only one who noticed the "other A.I.". In don't think it would have taken over Cortana though: I believe the AI was on the Forerunner ship, and Cortana is still stuck on High Charity.

But I'd bet this other AI (which is probably Foreunner) plays some part in the game. Masterchief usually has Cortana in his head for a good part of the game: with Cortana on High Charity, who would fill the role?

I have to admit though, the words do sound more apt for a Forerunner then either Grave mind or cortana, but I just don't think it's the case.

P.S. In your signature, "there" should be "their". Just thought you should know.
