{{Article | {{Article Quote|August [[2558]]. [[Rion Forge]] was once defined by her relentless quest for hope amidst the refuse and wreckage of a [[Post-Covenant War conflicts|post-Covenant War galaxy]]—years spent searching for [[John Forge|family]] as much as fortune.

This remnant from eons past, when the [[Forerunners]] once thrived, brought with it a revelation of ancient machinations and a shocking, [[Forerunner-Flood War|brutal history]]. Unfortunately, the Ace crew also made dire enemies of the [[Office of Naval Intelligence]] in the process, with the constant threat of capture and incarceration a very real possibility. Now with tensions mounting and ONI forces closing in, Rion and her companions commit to this being’s very personal mission, unlocking untold secrets and even deadlier threats that have been hidden away for centuries from an unsuspecting universe....{{Ref/Reuse|S&S}}}} | ||
