*'''Palmer''': “Depends on how good the info is.” | |||
*'''Miller''': “He’s offering up a Covie listening post.” | |||
*'''Palmer''': “Listening post? That would explain how they’ve seen us coming recently. Fine. Have Poker check it out, then make the deal.” | |||
*'''Miller''': “Aye, Commander.” | |||
''Crimson reaches a particular Forerunner structure. They eliminate the Covenant guarding it.'' | |||
*'''Palmer''': “Let’s go, Crimson!” | |||

''Crimson opens the door. Covenant and Promethean forces emerge.'' | |||
