 		[Spec] Grunt cries?
I refer, of course, to this file: http://www.taral.net/queen-piping-filtered.wav

It reminds me of how the cries of frenzied Grunts are described in HALO: The Fall Of REACH - as the baying of hounds (or words to that effect).

My theory, then, is this:

Perhaps one of the processes (most likely the Pious Flea or Sleeping Princess) is trying to give us clues as to what happened to the ship - the Covenant detected them and boarded the craft, intending to capture it (much the way the SPARTANs intended to capture a crippled Covenant battlecruiser during the fall of REACH itself), but failed for a reason (or reasons) unknown.

The damaged craft then tried to escape into Slipspace, somehow wound up back near Earth, and the rest we've pretty much figured out.

 		It makes a strange kind of sense, I guess. That was how the grunts were described as sounding. Also in The Fall of Reach they mentioned that it is possible to translate (move) along a temporal (time) axis and not just a spatial (distance) axis. So I can understand your reasoning for that. The one thing that doesn't fit is that the Covenant never tried to capture/infiltrate anything of human origin (except navigational data) unless it had to to with Forerunner artifacts.
