Plot synopsis

Sometime following the death of fireteam leader Paul DeMarco on Ealen IV, Fireteam Majestic and Roland participate in a poker game night aboard the Template:UNSCship. Gabriel Thorne walks in to discover that the rest of the team had wagered over DeMarco's keepsake, the looted energy sword recovered from Gek 'Lhar during the Requiem Campaign. A week prior, Tedra Grant had won DeMarco's sword in a card game against Spartan Jones of Fireteam Bailey, only to suddenly lose it to Carlo Hoya. Thorne notes the weapon was a tribute to DeMarco for having saved his life, requesting to join in and have a shot at playing for the sword. The rest of the team agrees and Roland begins to start a new game of Hold 'em poker. Thorne stops Roland and replaces the virtual holotank cards with his own deck of physical playing cards. As Hola deals the deck and reveals the community cards, Roland alerts the team to an emergency distress call. Before the Spartans leave their interrupted game, Thorne unveils his winning hand, a pair of kings, and claims the sword of his fallen friend.
