==Summary== | ==Summary== | ||
Crimson arrives at [[the Cauldron]] and fights its way to [[Magma Base|Forward Base Magma]]. With the aid of the Marines stationed there and a pair of stationary auto-turrets, Crimson is able to defend the base from numerous waves of Covenant attackers. Once the coast is clear, [[Roland (AI)|Roland]] contacts Crimson's handler [[Jared Miller]], informing him that Spartan [[Gabriel Thorne]]'s [[Identification friend or foe|IFF]] tag has been detected in the vicinity. Crimson finds only Thorne's IFF transmitter and signs of a struggle, but Roland finds enough evidence to extrapolate the path Thorne took out of the area. | |||
