After entering the Slipspace portal at the [[Two Giants]], [[Fireteam Crimson]] emerges at the [[Fortress (location)|Fortress]] where they are immediately engaged by Covenant forces. After re-establishing contact with the {{UNSCship|Infinity}}, Crimson defends themselves from waves of Covenant attackers while the crew aboard ''Infinity'' try to track [[Jul 'Mdama]]. [[Roland (AI)|Roland]] reveals that what they had previously believed to be signal relays are actually [[slipspace]] portals, and eventually Spartan [[Jared Miller]] identifies the portal 'Mdama took. Crimson activates it and pursues him through it.

'''{Gameplay}'''


''Crimson appears midair and lands atop one of the Fortress's outlying structures. They immediately come under fire from Covenant forces.''
'''Palmer''': "So where the hell did Crimson go?"
'''Miller''': "No idea, Commander. I'm working on it."
'''Roland''': "Commander Palmer? If you don't mind. I've located Crimson's IFF tags. They're in one of the arctic comm forts."
'''Palmer''': "Whoa. OK. Thanks, Roland. Bit of a jump there, Crimson."
'''Palmer''': "Crimson, I don't know if you can hear me, but you're boxed in. Only way out is through the bad guys."
'''Miller''': "Commander, there's a UNSC relay still online. If Crimson can reach that, it should clear our transmissions. Painting a waypoint for them now."
''Crimson approaches the waypoint.''
'''Miller''': "Ah! There it is!"
''The player activates the relay.''
'''Palmer''': "Much better, Crimson. Miller, now that we can see straight, where's Jul 'Mdama?"
'''Miller''': "There was another slipspace rupture at this location just before Crimson's arrival. Looking into it."
''A drop pod descends from the sky.''
'''Miller''': "Drop pod incoming!"
'''Palmer''': "Miller!"
'''Miller''': "I'm trying! Hang on!"
'''Roland''': "I'm bored."
'''Palmer''': "Roland? Clear the channel."
'''Roland''': "That data that's confusing Spartan Miller is only confusing because he still thinks forts are comm relays."
'''Miller''': "So what are they really?"
'''Roland''': "They're a portal nexus. Just like back at those towers. Thought it'd be obvious by now."
'''Miller''': "Do you see a way to activate the portals, Roland?"
'''Roland''': "Of course. Can I turn on the waypoints for Crimson? It's exciting being part of an Op!"
'''Miller''': "Go ahead."
'''Palmer''': "Hey! Protocols, Miller!"
''A waypoint appears at the top of the Fortress.''
'''Roland''': "There you are, Crimson! Get up there! I command it! Ok, now I'm... now I'm bored again. Bye."
''Numerous drop pods descend from the sky.''
'''Miller''': "Heads up, drop pods incoming!"
'''Miller''': "Crimson! Oh no!"
'''Miller''': "Commander, two portal activators just powered up."
'''Palmer''': "Which did Jul use?"
'''Miller''': "Not sure. But now that I know what these things are, I can probably figure that out if Crimson gets a closer look."
'''Palmer''': "Show 'em where to go, Miller."
'''Miller''': "Either one of these waypoints should do it, Crimson."
''Waypoints appear on two of the outlying structures. The player activates one of them.''
'''Miller''': "Okay, stay put for just a moment..."
'''Miller''': "No... last activation date on this portal is days ago. It's not the one 'Mdama activated."
'''Palmer''': "Get ready. Covenant drop pods inbound."
''The player activates the second waypoint.''
'''Miller''': "That's the one, Commander! Jul 'Mdama came through here just a few minutes ago."
'''Palmer''': "It's turned on. Where's the portal?"
'''Miller''': "Almost got it."
'''Miller''': "Drop pods coming down near your position, Crimson!"
'''Miller''': "Got it! Painting a waypoint now."
'''Palmer''': "There's your doorway, Crimson. Get in there."
''A waypoint appears on a portal which has activated at the top of the Fortress.''
'''Palmer''': "Get moving, Crimson. We've got a hingehead to chase."
'''CHAPTER COMPLETE'''
