{{Quote|Today I found myself working alongside another former colonist. Tough old broad named Lorie, Told her about what I'd been feeling. She laughed in my face!

So now, when I chip away the glass, I picture a new world we're making.|Evelyn Collins reflects on her motive for digging on Meridian.}}

On the fifth day of her return to Meridian, Collins aided in the digging of a road from the [[space elevator]] to [[Meridian Station]]. Collins was discouraged to find that most of the miners seemed to be just in it for the profit, with no other former refugees like her.<ref>'''[[Halo 5: Guardians]]''', campaign level, ''[[Glassed]]'' - [[Mission Intel|Evelyn Collins: Meridian Day 5]]</ref>

On the seventeenth day of her stay, Collins met another past citizen of Meridian, [[Lorie]]. With their shared background, Collins confessed to her about her regrets and fears about Meridian's destruction, but Lorie laughed in response. She suggested that Collins forget what Meridian was and concentrate on what it could become. Collins took her words to heart and dug more hopefully afterward to build a new world.<ref>'''[[Halo 5: Guardians]]''', campaign level, ''[[Glassed]]'' - [[Mission Intel|Evelyn Collins: Meridian Day 17]]</ref>

On October 25 [[2558]], a [[Guardian]] broke out from under Meridian's surface. Meridian Station's AI [[Sloan|Governor Sloan]] initiated a mass evacuation, but he eventually fled on his own civilians when given the chance to leave with the Guardian and join the [[Created]]. Collins missed the evacuation ships and instead was left behind alone in Meridian Station. Afraid she'd been left to die, Collins sent a plea for help over the COM networks, which was overheard by [[Fireteam Osiris]].<ref>'''[[Halo 5: Guardians]]''', campaign level, ''[[Evacuation]]'' - [[Mission Intel]]</ref>

===Aftermath===
{{Quote|Everyone's gone. I'm alone here.}}
Immediately following her open channel broadcast, Collins wandered around the now EMP'd town, eventually entering the medical station, where she runs into [[Cale]], the resident doctor of the outpost and notably [[Marquez]], a technician. Collins gathers parts for Marquez to construct a radio transmitter, which he does successfully. On activation, they overhear [[Cortana]]'s message to the galaxy. In a desperate bid for survival, Collins tells Marquez to transmit back that they agree to Cortana's terms. Cortana, however, replies "I hear you, Meridian Station. All will be dealt with in time."
