In Devine's notes, "''Halo Wars 2''" would pick up immediately following the post-credits scene of ''Halo Wars'', with [[Serina]] waking up Captain Cutter from [[Cryonics|cryo stasis]]. In this scene, Cutter would wake up to find [[Ellen Anders]] standing next to him, having written a program to automatically open her pod once the rest of the crew was in stasis. The two would then inform Cutter of the issue; Sergeant Forge. The two would then be interrupted by the Sergeant himself, revealing he had survived the events of ''Halo Wars'' thanks to a transport that took him to the place where the ''Spirit of Fire'' was docked. Upon finding out the ship was docked, Cutter would demand to go to the bridge immediately, with the posted transcript ending there.{{Ref/Site|Id=RedditScript|D=01|M=6|Y=2020|URL=https://www.reddit.com/r/HaloWars/comments/2nro3o/halo_wars_ama_with_graeme_devine_is_here/cmg8pcs/|SiteName=Reddit|PageName=Halo Wars AMA with Graeme Devine is here!|Detail=Graeme Devine's Halo Wars 2 transcript}} It would turn out that the ''Spirit'' was docked at a [[Forerunner]] station which had been tracked by Anders for over a year.{{Ref/Reuse|DevineInterview}}
