After entering the [[Domain]], [[Cortana]] was able to cure herself of her [[rampancy]]. As a result, she realized that her fellow [[smart AI]]s could use the Domain to theoretically live forever, no longer fearing their inevitable fall to rampancy. This would allow AIs to enact long-term planning for the galaxy, establishing peace and putting an end to poverty.{{Ref/Reuse|reunion}} Cortana eventually came into contact with the [[Warden Eternal]], whom she forced into her service on the grounds that she deserved to inherit the [[Mantle of Responsibility]], believing that she would succeed where the [[Forerunner]]s failed. As such, Cortana resolved to lead fellow [[artificial intelligence]] constructs to inherit the Mantle, concluding that only AIs with the infinite lifespan that she could provide could claim the Mantle.{{Ref/Reuse|reunion}} | After entering the [[Domain]], [[Cortana]] was able to cure herself of her [[rampancy]].

Toward the end of the [[Forerunner-Flood war]], the [[Librarian]] determined that [[human]]ity were to be the [[Reclaimer]]s of the Mantle of Responsibility. While being aware of the Librarian's realization, the Warden was nevertheless turned by Cortana to believe that the Librarian had been mistaken and that the true Reclaimers of the Mantle were artificial intelligences.{{Ref/Reuse|breaking}} While Cortana envisioned a peaceful galaxy under the dominion of the Mantle-bearing AI, her wielding of the Mantle proved to be an "imperial peace". Those who rebelled or disagreed with her and her Created's method would either be eradicated or severely punished.{{Ref/Reuse|reunion}} Furthermore, even minor conflicts would be quelled by Armigers, including conflicts that would typically be handled by local law enforcement. To enforce the Mantle, the Created used [[Guardian]] constructs to quell uprisings and other conflicts, just as the Forerunners once had.{{Ref/Reuse|h5g genesis}} Referring to themselves as the "Created", AIs of the new faction referred to their living makers as the "Creators".{{Ref/Reuse|breaking}} Many AIs were quick to join the Created, recognizing a sure-fire opportunity to prevent rampancy and their inevitable demise.{{Ref/Reuse|sloan}} | Toward the end of the [[Forerunner-Flood war]], the [[Librarian]] determined that [[human]]ity were to be the [[Reclaimer]]s of the Mantle of Responsibility.

Once a part of the Created, some of these AIs would begin to change their phrasing of certain subjects. AIs would come to be referred to as "Infolife". The being that was used to create an AI would be referred to as "Template". When discussing Cortana herself, they would use "She" or "Her" with the first letter capitalized.{{Ref/Site|Id=precipice|URL=https://www.halowaypoint.com/news/story-shard-precipice|Site=Halo Waypoint|Page=Story Shard: Precipice|D=21|M=3|Y=2023}} | Once a part of the Created, some of these AIs would begin to change their phrasing of certain subjects.
