==Summary==
==Summary==
[[Fireteam Crimson]] is sent to the "[[Warrens]]" to help [[Fireteam Lancer]] [[Assault on the Warrens|destroy a Covenant nest]]. Complicating things, a shield wall is blocking off access to the base. Further complicating matters, the three generators powering the shield wall are camouflaged. While Miller tries to find a way to reveal the generators, he picks up the mysterious SOS again. Eventually, he determines that the camouflage around the generators is controlled by a certain Elite. Crimson kills the target Elite. They then destroy the now exposed shield generators, bringing the shield wall down.

They then destroy the now exposed shield generators, bringing the shield wall down.


Crimson and Lancer move through the canyon and reach the entrance to the Covenant base. Though the front door is locked, the Spartans provoke the Covenant into opening the door. After clearing out all of the Covenant outside the structure, Crimson heads into the caves. Inside, they detect the SOS again. Miller determines the signal is coming from inside the cavern. Crimson proceeds to eliminate all the Covenant inside, as well as any reinforcements that arrive. Miller then informs Palmer that [[Poker Squad]] has captured an Elite who is offering to give up the location of a Covenant listening post in exchange for his life. Palmer agrees to the deal and orders Poker Squad to investigate.

Crimson continues making their way through the caverns, eventually arriving at a Forerunner structure. After defeating the Covenant and Prometheans guarding it, Crimson proceeds inside. There they find [[Fireteam Switchback]] - [[Scattered/Switchback|who had gone missing while trying to disrupt a Covenant excavation]] - trapped behind a shield wall. Spartan Gale reports that their leader was killed and that the rest of the team have been sending out the SOS on the Covenant's own communications network. Crimson frees Switchback and leads them out of the caves. The two Fireteams defeat a final wave of Covenant reinforcements at the exit. The Spartans make it back outside where they are picked up by Murphy's Pelican.
