Athos further displayed the {{UNSCShip|Promise of Dawn}}, a {{Class|Paris|heavy frigate}} that also went missing during the events at Reach. A distress signal from both the survivors of the ''Promise'' and the doctor had been received in the past twenty-four hours from [[Sephune III]], a planet controlled largely by [[Covenant remnants|vestiges]] of the [[Covenant]]. Athos and Linda were assigned to work with one another to end the threat Doctor Chen posed, with Linda specifically being tasked with his assassination. The [[sniper]] and [[A.I.]] traveled to Sephune III thereafter and soon found themselves facing down the [[Covenant remnants|dregs]] of the [[Covenant]] and the hostility of a lost settlement on the world.{{Ref/Reuse|HLW1}} Once Chen was in their sights, Linda and Athos sought to find a way to both complete their mission but also evacuate the endangered residents of the settlement.<ref name="HLW2">''[[Halo: Lone Wolf]]'' [[Halo: Lone Wolf Issue 2|Issue #2]]</ref> | At some point during the latter half of [[2553]] Athos was present when [[Linda-058]] was summoned to a command room for a mission briefing by an ONI officer.{{Ref/Reuse|HLW1}} The officer had Athos bring up a [[holographic]] image of the mission's target: a former ONI scientist by the name of Doctor [[Chen Bax]] who had tried to steal classified technology from the agency but was thought killed in action during the [[Fall of Reach|Fall]] of [[Reach]] before he could be moved on.
