After the destruction of the ''Mantle's Approach'' and the defeat of the Didact, Cortana was ostensibly destroyed. However, the heart of the ''Mantle's Approach'' was able to make a jump into slipspace, taking the remnants of Cortana's personality with it. Cortana's remains made contact and inter-meshed with the Domain, where she reassembled herself and subsequently took control of the Forerunner intelligence set the guard the Domain, whom she dubs her [[Warden Eternal]]. Believing the [[Librarian]]'s plan had been for AIs to inherit the Mantle rather than humans, Cortana set out to enact her own "Reclamation".

She then assumed control of the [[Promethean]] constructs, which had been under the command of [[Jul 'Mdama]] in the wake of the Didact's defeat, and awakened [[Guardian]]s on several worlds in order to enforce the Mantle.<ref name="h5g">'''Halo 5: Guardians''</ref> At some point, Cortana learned about the existence of [[Unidentified Builder|a Forerunner]] [[Builder]] alive on Genesis and went after him, but the Builder managed to escape from her. | ||
Cortana eventually made contact with Master Chief through a vision, leading him and the rest of [[Blue Team]] to the planet [[Meridian]]. After descending into the Forerunner ruins on Meridian, Blue Team encountered Fireteam Osiris who attempted to return them to the UNSC. Blue Team managed to elude Osiris and board Meridian's Guardian which took them to Genesis. Once on Genesis, Cortana intentionally led Blue Team in circles in order to buy herself more time to locate the remaining Guardians. Eventually she made contact with Blue Team, and explained to Master Chief how she was able to heal herself after the wreckage of the Didact's ship brought her to Genesis via slipspace.<ref name="h5g"/> | Cortana eventually made contact with Master Chief through a vision, leading him and the rest of [[Blue Team]] to the planet [[Meridian]].
