I think I may have found a new reference to the shield and sword line.Anyone who helped with the 7 glyphs on bungie.org may recognise this:

"Warfare is overrated. I prefer shields of light and swords of feather. Have I gone too far? Or have I not traveled enough"

Chelsea Bridges posted this as a clue to solve the 7 Glyphs puzzle.
Could this have something to do with the trailer?

Quick as a razor, sharp as a bullet.

Heh, sorry should be a bit more specific.
On the Bungie.org site there are 7 Glyphs on the top.
They were a puzzle that led to Marathon production work for the fans.
Chelsea was the one who helped them decipher the glyphs.
That was one of her clues that she posted.
That any better?
EDIT:Has anyone checked some of the older Marathon and Halo behind the scenes work like I Love Bees for clues?
Could turn up something.

no one on the Halo 3 forums is going to have any idea what you are talking about, most of them are newcomers that joined when Halo 3 was announced......

Then maybe we should get some of the older forum members to take a look at it?
They may be able to figure it out.

I always thought that when she said "I am your sword, I am your shield" she was also trying to say that she had merged with another AI. If Cortana is the name of a sword then if she merged with an AI with the name of a legendary shield (ie Aegis) then she would be able to say that sentence "I am your sword, I am your shield" which effectively means "I am the AI Cortana, I am the AI Aegis". Hence I thought that sentence meant she has merged with another entity, just need to figure out what "shield" means.

I mean thats what I suspected.
