When the ''Ace of Spades'' arrives at Rion's position, she orders Niko to find a nearby communications satellite and find information on the ship that attacked the ''Roman Blue''. Rion then leaves to take a shower. There, she starts thinking of her first job as a crewman on the cargo ship ''[[Hakon]]''. There the aging condition of the senior staff led to growing disorder among the crew, with Rion killing a newer crew member, [[Sorely]], six years into her service. Gaining full respect from the crew and the staff, she received training in how to run the ship, finally doing so when the two senior officers died. When Rion returns to duty, Niko gives her an update: the nearest comm satellite is orbiting [[Chi Rho]], and the attacking ship is virtually undetectable when not in combat. Rion and Cade discuss the likeliness of ONI just happening on the ship at the same time as them. It doesn't fit, and they suspect they have been tracked ever since leaving [[Venezia]]. Moving to the issue of their exploration of the ship itself, Rion reveals to the crew having found information on the missing UNSC ''Spirit of Fire'' - that the Covenant ship ''[[Radiant Perception]]'' picked up a navigation buoy dropped by it to alert the UNSC of its intended course. Their salvage mission is thus changed to finding the ''Radiant Perception''<nowiki>'</nowiki>s wreckage and the buoy. | When the ''Ace of Spades'' arrives at Rion's position, she orders Niko to find a nearby communications satellite and find information on the ship that attacked the ''Roman Blue''.

As the ''Ace of Spades'' takes a slow course to the satellite over Chi Rho, Rion asks Kip for standard schematics for the {{ | As the ''Ace of Spades'' takes a slow course to the satellite over Chi Rho, Rion asks Kip for standard schematics for the {{Pattern|Sinaris|heavy destroyer}}. To make sure the mission is profitable and not just a personal quest, she plans on recovering its luminary. Kip has never heard of one, which he learns is due to a lasting taboo among ex-Covenant in discussing luminaries with the spiritually ''unclean''. The entire crew is ecstatic at the prospect of being the only salvagers with the ability to detect Forerunner technology, and Rion serves out a rare bottle of [[Alt Burgundy]] to celebrate. While the others are away, Rion confides in Cade that they probably won't find the buoy, though the UNSC certainly would not have had time to recover it back from the Covenant. One of the ''Ace'' crew members, unknown at the time, sends a coded [[Hahn]] in regards to the recent discovery of the ''Roman Blue'', revealing himself to be an ONI agent known only as "67159-021127". He suspects Hahn of being behind the glassing and informs him that Rion is aware of ''Radiant Perception''<nowiki>'</nowiki>s recovery of the buoy at the [[Battle for Arcadia]]. | ||
Rion sends a message to [[Nor Fel]] via the comm satellite asking about Covenant destroyers. Fal is hesitant to get involved as the Covenant remnants and pirates are more than willing to take out anyone who could recover a wreckage before them. Rion demands for money; having paid Nor for the location of the ''Roman Blue'' and lost equipment in the attack as well as the wreckage, she finds it a worthless sale. Aware of the [[Kig-Yar]] race's obsession with collecting things, she knows the threat of refund would make Nor more approachable. Rion quickly relaxes her demand and instead asks for the Covenant Navy's logistical records on the ''Radiant Perception'', particularly relating to its current fate. Rion is more sure of success this time, as its active career so early into the war would show a decent record. | Rion sends a message to [[Nor Fel]] via the comm satellite asking about Covenant destroyers.
