As Crimson proceeded, Roland detected two likely spots that Thorne could've been taken, the first being a nearby butte. As Crimson investigated, they were attacked by [[Jul 'Mdama's Covenant|Covenant]] forces, including [[Kig-Yar Sniper]]s, turrets, [[Karo'etba-pattern Ghost|Ghosts]] and [[Zurdo-pattern Wraith|Wraiths]]. Crimson discovered that Thorne was not at the first location and cleared out the remaining Covenant in the area, including reinforcements dropped by [[Ru'swum-pattern Phantom|Phantoms]]. | As Crimson proceeded, Roland detected two likely spots that Thorne could've been taken, the first being a nearby butte.

Roland detected a higher than normal number of Covenant at the other end of the "Quarry," suggesting that there was something worth guarding in that location such as a captured Spartan. Crimson fought their way to the end of the "Quarry" which was heavily guarded by Covenant forces including Wraiths and Ghosts. Despite the heavy resistance, Crimson managed to clear the area, but only found a collection of stolen UNSC gear, vehicles and weapons. However, there was no sign of Thorne and Roland had lost the trail.

The Covenant started sending in massive waves of troops via {{Pattern|Gloto'kas|Assault Carapace}}s and Phantoms to attack Crimson. With the help of the stolen UNSC gear, Crimson managed to repel each successive wave despite being heavily outnumbered. However, several [[Mgalekgolo|Hunters]] and Wraiths were deployed in the area and at Miller's request, Dalton dropped [[ordnance pod]]s containing [[M6 Spartan Laser|Spartan Lasers]]. With the heavy weapons, Crimson managed to eliminate the Hunters and Wraiths, seemingly ending the Covenant attack.{{Ref/Reuse|Thorne}} | The Covenant started sending in massive waves of troops via {{Pattern|Gloto'kas|Assault Carapace}}s and Phantoms to attack Crimson.
