In Response To: Re: Prepare for Cortana spec - *spoilers* (Jillybean)
: I've said it before and I'll say it again - she's the copy of Halsey's brain
: and the woman was obviously disturbed. Would you go around stealing
: children to mess around with them for - let's not forget this - rebel
: control. Not aliens. Rebel control. Not the extinction of the human race.
: It says in FoR that the rebels were getting totally out of hand at one point,
: I don't remember the exact quote but it goes something along the lines of
: losing the outer colonies.
: Wow. Big problem, it needs to be solved. Under no circumstances does it merit
: scientific experiments on children.
: Did you guess I have issues with this?
: I recognise that Cortana is not a mass-murderer but I do think there is
: something very strange going on with her. Halsey showed very little regret
: apart from once or twice wondering if this was the right thing to do. I
: know we were supposed to think that she had thought long and hard about it
: and realised there was nothing else to do but I just feel wierd about the
: whole thing.
: Also - did Cortana not transfer a general to his certain death on the front
: lines? Perhaps not his certain death but surely it's a little extreme,
: even as a revenge move.
: The fact that Cortana was capable of revenge at all is very scary.
: One more thought - Cortana decides that nothing is going to happen to John at
: the end of FoR and is quite maternal. This is reflected in John's dream at
: the start of the Flood where the image of his mother fades to Halsey then
: Cortana again.
: Has Cortana favoured John's life as opposed to marines. Did she lie to John
: and say marines were already dead rather than risk his life on the broken
: Halo?
That certain general tryed to kill the master chief and cortana. He was dangerous, so cortana got rid of him.
