Near the [[keystone]], John found the smashed device that had contained Cortana, but the surprised AI revealed that she had uploaded herself to the ship's systems in order to survive. Cortana warned John that she had simulated all of the possible outcomes and they all ended with both of their destruction. As Cortana counted down the final seconds, John declared that she didn't know everything and smashed his fist into the command console, uploading Cortana into his armor. Moments later, Var's ship crashed on the Halo ring.{{Ref/Reuse|Halo}}
