Okay, when you are first introduced to Gravemind in the level Gravemind in Halo 2, GM speaks in something called trochaic heptameter...that means he speaks in a kind of poetic way with seven syllables.
"This one is Machine and Nerve/and has its mind concluded"
"This one is but Flesh and Faith/and is the more deluded"
Well, in the H3 Trailer, Cortana speaks in trochaic octameter (eight syllables).
"I have defied Gods and demons"
"I am your shield, I am your sword"
"I know you, your past, your future"
All of those quotes have eight syllables.
Maybe a connection? I don't know if somebody already noticed this already though.
Umm, wouldn't it be a connection if she spoke in 7 syllables? All you did was prove there was no connection since they aren't talking the same.
He proved that theres a 1 syllable difference, chronologically. first gravemind, then cortana.
i built upon it by saying " Im Gonna Pwn You Like Chuck Norris!"
