 * ['D'] Whatever it is you woke me for it had better be good. I have a 0600 with
 * Zero and I'm going to need my full four hours to keep ahead of them.


 * ['S'] Yes, sir. It's one of the Unggoy we captured. It's offering information in
 * exchange for a deal.


 * ['D'] A grunt? Why are you wasting my time? Those things don't know HOW to
 * tell the truth. Besides, something that far down the chain won't have access to
 * plans. Not beyond kitchen duty anyway.


 * ['S'] You're right, sir. But it's not about the Covenant. The Unggoy says he was
 * snatched from the Covenant. You remember the attack on Carter Guard Armory
 * six weeks ago?


 * ['D'] I'm still trying to make up the losses from the fallout. They took everything
 * we had and left no survivors. I've never seen the Covenant take our gear like
 * that before. Are you telling me we have a splinter group to contend with now?


 * ['S'] Maybe. Whether they're our problem too is another matter. I started doing
 * some digging and the group's targets seem to be chiefly Covenant. I guess hit
 * what you know, eh? Anyway, I pulled the security vids of the raid to get the
 * Unggoy to identify the leader.


 * ['D'] And did the grunt ID? Do we have a visual?


 * ['S'] Pulling it up now. It's a little blurry, but what you're about to see is the
 * leader, a Jiralhanae, fighting a squad of ODSTs. There's a lot of blood, sir. It's not
 * an easy watch.


 * ['D'] Good lord. Is he beating that ODST with...? Do we have a name?


 * ['S'] We do, sir. From the Unggoy. Says his name is Atriox.


 * ['D'] Make sure no one else talks to that grunt. I want this compartmentalized.
 * Some at ONI will see this as a problem to be fixed, not an opportunity. Find out
 * all you can on this Atriox and keep me informed.
