I've been thinking of this for awhile. What if in trailer the huge thing buried in the ground isn't some Forerunner structure or the "Ark". But instead a monument to those who have died in the war, and most importantly, those from Mombasa. Covenant, Marines, and civilians.
Why I think this? The Master Chief and Covenant aren't necessarily fighting in the trailer. Maybe it's because they don't see him? I don't know. It's also interesting to know that the Arbiter and Sgt. Johnson at the end of Halo 2 are allies, meaning Humans and Elites may be on the same side later in the story. So that is why I've come to the conclusion that the Covenant, in an attempt to ask for forgiveness for the past war and being deceived by the Prophets, have built such a large memorial for the Mombasa residents. And the war victims as well. It was built specifically there because of the mass wipeout of a large Earth city. Which I know doesn't compare with the billions that have died on distant plaents, but it was probably the last battle of both Covenant and Human forces.
Here's a vid in a different perspective from the trailer. Mine.
How the fight finished
