In the GI article it’s says how the ghost of cortana speaks to john and says "the domain is open, meridian is next.Meridian was the human colony world that the unsc successfully defended from the covenant, only for them to return and glass. The covenant found a luminary there that showed them the location of halo and the ark.
Do you think this is what cortana was talking about, or something else?
I just re-watched the Halo 2: Anniversary Terminal Beholden and believe the luminary found on Meridian, shares some significance to what phantom Cortana is suggesting… the Luminary did unlock the Location of the Lesser Ark, Erde-Tyrene and the Halo Arrays… who knows what is beneath the cavernous ruins?

Even further suggesting that we are returning to the ark, as if the teaser trailer didn’t provide enough proof already (sound effects, mysterious guardian buried under rock and sand etcetera). Uber-hyped to return!

I think that’s how Mendicant Bias will appear in Halo 5, as fans have long speculated. Perhaps Mendicant Bias assumed control of the Guardian or perhaps it was buried with him to prevent him from escaping? Anyway, I think Chief would possibly go to a Forerunner AI with a great understanding of the Flood/Precursors to learn more about the Domain and accessing it. He would take that risk if he needed to.
