In the Halo3 demo.

gravemind is also saying this, at the same time as her.

"I defy Gods and Demons"
"I am your shield, I am your sword"
"I know you. Your past. Your Future"
"This is the way the world end"

big light flashes.


Is that what you were asking for? the words to the "poem"

Maybe Bungie will make an update containes a terrible flaw and causes you xbox to explode leaving nothing but a black outline where it used to be.

Shhhhhh. That one is still in development.

I hear the best it can manage right now is a small fire. Exploding hardware may sound easy, but they're really hard to code.


Don't click

Everybody...do not tell him the poem!!

The cortonna letters are:

The letters you get with halo2. like truth to mercy's letter or whoever.
And the letters with the halo books.

and everyone else agree with me to shut goku up...ok?

The Cortana Letters are a non-canon advertisement for Halo 1 that was released in between 1999-2000 when Halo was in it's Mac days.

As for the Gravemind poem, are you referring to the one in the Halo 3 trailer, or the backwards one on High Charity in Halo 2?

Ummm.. that really got me confused.
Cortana Letters? Gravemind Poem? "Backwards one on High Charity in Halo 2"?
What's in High Charity. Sorry, I am replaying the game and I haven't gotten there yet and I forget what was there the first time I beat the game.

during the cutscene where the lower sides of honor guards are seen as the arbitor makes his way past, there is a low praying going on. its a voice, more likely durandals than graveminds, that recites some poem backwards. i dont know hte poem. if you want to know, i suggest using the tools you have available- the internet. its not at this site. leave goku.

There is a song called "Whisper in the Storm" on the Halo 2 Soundtrack that contains a certain chant. Playing it backwards, a voice whispers:

I have walked among men and angels for a thousand years.
Time has no end, no beginning, no purpose.
I wander the Earth, seeking forgiveness for my horrible crimes against God and man.
I live to see death, destruction, over the light, but the light cannot be extinguished.
I am a prisoner of my own demise.

I am lost in time...

It is widely referred to that this is Gravemind's current state of mind.
