Cortana
It is a blurred line that lies at the edge of Godhood and Insanity. Guess which side of it I am on.

or maybe not... the flood can be smart as well...remember in the level "keyes" of halo 1, Cortana said they were repairing the ship so they can get off Halo or something....so...maybe they really know how to use computer?


But remember that Gravemind is controling the flood.

So... gravemind can use computer after all.

If you remember from Marathon when AIs become rouge they use symbolic language. The sheild and sword could mean many different things. Which could be a good thing or a bad thing depending what she ment by it.

Like I said it could be good or bad. Since it's symbolism we don't know exactly what she ment by it.

just a couple things....
it is typed "Rogue" as in Cortana has gone rogue.. no rouge... thats red in french .... lol..
i know that we dont know what gravemind has done to cortana, but she is past her life expectancy, and therefore could indeed have gone rogue. another thing, the gravemins controlling the flood doesnt mean that he/she can use a computer. when she said she has defied gods and demons, could the gods be the prophets that she helped MC hunt and kill ? they were thought to be gods by the covies. and the demon could be gravemind, maybe she killed gravemind or something like that. there are going to be lots of maybe's ina ll these forums, there will be no solid answers untill bungie says.
take care guys and gals.

One, I dont care how it's spelled if you know what im trying to say why bother correcting me. Two if you want to play like that you spelled Gravemind wrong and I dont know what a ina is. Three, I said that Gravemind can control the flood and use them to use computers the fact that Gravemind controls the flood is not an excuse why he can use computers. And four, I agree that there will be no solid answers.

Hey ya dont understand it (just kidding). I will explain what I though about Cortana's words:

"I have defied and [Demons]" yeah you know, the gravemind is talking through Cortana's voice when saying "demons" so it really wanna say "I have defied Prophets/Forerunners and Spartans/Humans" cause forerunners create/take care of the flood (i think) and they were defied to the point to use halo to suicide and the Covenant call us "the Demon"
"I am your shield, i am your sword" Well... Cortana is clearly saying that she has been with us, being our protection, helping us on the way, but now she is the one who will fight us(she would have reasons, who knows lol).
"I know you" Of course she does
"Your past" well, she has a database I supose, so MC history file could be in
"Your future" Err... 1 vs Army... yeah we know 1 is MC so we will win with power lol
"This is the way the world ends" yeah, if cortana is one sword towards us with all flood and captured covenant ships... maybe the world end there.

We always have a good opinion of Cortana but she has been "evil" always.
1. She used the coords that were in a forerunner object to find Halo (as i read at some webs)
2. Remember he helped us in Halo to survive herself, as the Cole Protocol says. If we die, she will "die"
3. If Cortana knows the coords I said before... who knows it that object got a message written?
4. I have read (no remember where) that 343 Guilty Spark have been 107.000 years at Halo... so imagine what great is 107.000 years of data for an AI.
5... Well i have more but this would like land a brick of text lol ;)

He could have been on the first Halo, Gravemind lives underground, or mabey there is only one Gravemind, he does take on a leadership-like role.

Thats a good analysis Ragnagard. The only problem I see with it is that the Covenant don't call all humans demon. They only call the Master Chief the demon.

cortana is alive come on bungie wouldnt kill just yet i mean she is like almost as big of a character as the MC. Gravemind is controlling because in the trailer when she says demons her voice sounds just like graveminds seriously go listen what their gonna do with her i dont know but she wont die until later on in halo 3 come on.

and the gravemind is just the leader of the flood altogether you guys gotta look he can teleport anything even himself because he got onto high charity. so he just probably was on delta halo because he heard some action goin on so he wanted to check it out thats all now he's made cortana all screwy. im sure she'll break her hold though from the gravemind because i bet the arbiter will take care of him with a nice covie sword to the roots because come on thats the only way to kill a weed you gotta up root it then incinerate it then piss on the ashes to put out the fire after a few hours.
