Transcript

{Cutscene}

Fade in on a tent pitched on the side of a windy cliff.

Cut to the tent interior. Spartan Jameson Locke is inside. He notes the holo-table in the center then watches the outside sunset.

Locke turns upon hearing footsteps. It is Thel 'Vadam, the Arbiter and kaidon of the Swords of Sanghelios.

• Locke: "Spartan Jameson Locke, UNSC. Captain Lasky sends his greetings, and thanks you for your cooperation."

The two look each other in the eye.

• Thel 'Vadam: "ONI... out of the shadows... The spies announce themselves now, Agent Locke?"

The Arbiter turns to inspect some hologram controls.

• Locke: "I'm a Spartan now, sir."

The Arbiter dismisses his statement with a waved hand.

• Thel 'Vadam: "I know who you are."

The Arbiter faces Locke again and approaches the table. It activates and displays a projection of Sunaion.

• Thel 'Vadam: "You were an agent when you volunteered to execute me."

• Locke: "I saved your life today."

• Thel 'Vadam: "Yet now you hunt another Spartan, the greatest of your clan."

A rumble is heard as the hologram flickers and malfunctions. A glowing purple sphere arises out of it.

• Cortana: "Let him hunt. He'll never find us."

The holographic sphere retreats into the table. The blast shakes the tent. Dr. Halsey and Sarah Palmer enter.

• Halsey: "It's Cortana. She touched every networked device in the camp. She knows the Guardian is here."

• Palmer: "Locke, that thing's our last shot."

• Locke: "You have the firepower to get us in there."

• Thel 'Vadam: "Sunaion is the Covenant's final stronghold on Sanghelios."

The Arbiter begins to leave the tent. He glares at Locke as he does.

• Thel 'Vadam: "We will move only when victory is assured."

The Arbiter exits, and Locke turns to Halsey.

• Locke: "Doctor, Osiris will deploy within the hour. Have your plan ready."

Cut to black.

A WHISPER IN THE STORM

{Gameplay}

The Spartans of Fireteam Osiris are at a cave leading to the Swords of Sanghelios's base camp. An allied Storm Elite stands guard ahead.

• Locke: "Guns down, Osiris. We're guests here."

• Halsey (COM): "Locke, I have a briefing prepared. Given Cortana's show of power, I am reluctant to discuss it over open channels."

• Locke: "Understood, doctor. We're on our way."

Seeing Palmer first

If the players go to Palmer first, this exchange happens.

• Palmer: "Osiris. Been briefed by Halsey already?"

• Locke: "Not yet, Commander. I'll talk to her ASAP."

Speaking with Halsey

The Spartans approach a balcony where Dr. Halsey is overlooking the camp. A hologram of a Forerunner construct is by here, and an Unggoy Storm strolls past. Halsey waves her arm to catch their attention.

• Halsey: "Over here, Osiris. I have located a means to activate the Guardian."

Locke speaks to Halsey.

• Locke: "Osiris reporting in, Doctor Halsey."

Halsey gestures to the hologram.

• Halsey: "This is a Constructor, a Forerunner tool I can use to interface with the Guardian. Constructors were ubiquitous in Forerunner facilities. These hills are riddled with support stations for the Sanghelios Guardian. Palmer has the coordinates to one such station. Finding a Constructor there should be simple."

Idle Dialogue

Singing Unggoy

Locke comes across an Unggoy, Flipflop, singing a song. Every member of Osiris responds uniquely upon hearing it.

• Flipflop: "Where Sun and moon and planets roll, and stars that roll from pole to pole."
• Locke: "Interesting song."
• Buck: "That's an older song from an older war."
• Vale: "Nice song."
• Tanaka: "Real pretty tune."
• Flipflop: "Thanks! Human prisoner used to sing. I thought maybe practice? Sing with him? But then he was in corpse pile. So no singing with him. Happy to sing for you though!"

The song Dimkee is singing is Chester, an American Revolutionary War anthem.

Unggoy Reports

An Unggoy walks around camp and randomly announces updates, whether it be camp-related or about Halsey, to a Sangheili who is working on a datapad. The Sangheili, in turn, responds in brief replies to the Unggoy.

• Unggoy Messenger: "Covenant forces are holding position in Sunaion."
• Unggoy Messenger: "Unggoy infusions are almost gone. Wait! Unggoy infusions almost gone?!"
• Unggoy Messenger: "Supplies says rations will be late, again."
• Unggoy Messenger: "Arbiter says take things through the north caverns."
• Unggoy Messenger: "The sentries should all face the other way."
• Unggoy Messenger: "Banshee mechanics want another plate of armor."
• Unggoy Messenger: "Science human says to leave her alone."
• Unggoy Messenger: "Science human needs a fusion core to calibrate something."
• Unggoy Messenger: "Science human complains a lot."
• Unggoy Messenger: "I think someone stole science human's arm."

• Sangheili Officer on Datapad: "Copy that."
• Sangheili Officer on Datapad: "Received."
• Sangheili Officer on Datapad: "Message logged."
• Sangheili Officer on Datapad: "Noted."
• Sangheili Officer on Datapad: "Confirmed."
• Sangheili Officer on Datapad: "Yes, yes."
• Sangheili Officer on Datapad: "I hear you."
• Sangheili Officer on Datapad: "Copy."
• Sangheili Officer on Datapad: "Understood."
• Sangheili Officer on Datapad: "Good."
• Sangheili Officer on Datapad: "Affirmative."

Arbiter at the Camp

Arbiter Thel 'Vadam is speaking to two other Sangheili Officers at the center of the camp.

First discussion

• Sangheili Officer #1: "Our systems have been compromised."
• Thel 'Vadam: "By the Human AI, not the Covenant."
• Sangheili Officer #1: "It is sabotage! We must respond."
• Thel 'Vadam: "We fight one enemy at a time. Today, the Covenant."

Second discussion

• Sangheili Officer #1: "Our airstrikes will drive them out of hiding and into our ground troops."
• Sangheili Officer #2: "We clear and hold the indicated zones. We have sufficient military strength to handle the Covenant defenses."
• The
