I don't see you doing anything to help our country.
Except sitting at home, naked, eating twinkies, rubbing your hands together going "Heh. Target Destroyed. Mission Accomplished." Oh wait. that's not helping.

I normaly disagree with but this is a pretty interesting concept and if 343 could manage it it could become a very good story.Exactly, especially since they haven't touched on what exactly was done to Chief in the first place. It also seems like the only logical reason they would kill off Cortana, a need in the story to replace her.
Massive Spoilers . .
Well one of the things the Liberian did is she made it so Master Chief wouldn't get killed by the Didacts weapon, she very well could have modified Chiefs shields.
That's why Master Chief didn't die at the research facility that had the Composer.
She also could have uploaded her self or a forerunner AI she made to Cortana's chip and made it so the new AI would boot up after Cortana sacrificed her self to save Chief.
As for the Didact he could have did what Cortana did to Chief, so he wouldn't get killed by the nuke.
I kind of think that space Chief and Cortana were in is the same kind of space where the Master Chief interacted with the Liberian.
Also I don't think the Didact would try and take over the Master Chief, he looked down on the Master Chief as a lower level form of life.
And I don't think Prometheans can be turned back into their original bodies.
They are AI constructs like Cortana.
As far as the composer goes I'm the sure the Librarian did something similar to Chief as was done to the Didact, he is immune to the composer as well.
I doubt the Librarian uploaded herself or anyone to Cortana's chip. When the process is done the old memory literally resides in the hosts mind. Meaning that if this was done there would essentially be an ancient human living in Chiefs head. I never said the Didact would take control, as well as speaking with the host if they gain enough power the ancient mind can take control of the host body and use it to speak and such.
The geas is literally a signal that draws humans to go where it tells them. If it is ignored it weakens them to a point of near death and they will go anyway for the sake of survival. That is why I highly doubt any current humans have a geas.
Prometheans are not AI. The composer takes living life forms and turns them into a sort of ghost like memory. That memory can be put into a living beings head, put into a monitor (I am beginning to think 343-GS may be one of the ancient humans from the Forerunner Saga), or they can be put into apparently a warrior form. I have no clue why the Composer in the book is unable to preserve the memories as that is not how it functions in the novels. I'm hoping that is touched upon more, but my point is they are not AI, but something entirely different. Oh and yes, monitors are really just the memories of Forerunners who gave their lives to serve the empire.
Case and point, I really hope this is implemented next game, because having a views and knowledge of an ancient human in Chiefs head would be pretty sweet.
