| In ''[[Halo: Reach]]'', there are '''radio conversations''' between [[United Nations Space Command]] personnel in most of the [[Multiplayer]] and [[Firefight]] maps. Some of the conversations are linked to each other to form a narrative.{{Ref/Site|URL=http://halo.bungie.net/Forums/posts.aspx?postID=49670283|Site=Bungie.net Forums|Page=Turn Up The Radio: Radio Logs from Reach|D=24|M=06|Y=2018}}{{Ref/Site|URL=http://halo.bungie.org/misc/reach_radio_transmissions/|Site=halo.bungie.org|Page=Reach Radio Transmissions|D=17|M=04|Y=2021}}

| ===Red Team story arc=== | |
| A number of radio logs can be combined to recreate the battle [[Red Team]]'s [[Beta-Red|Beta splinter unit]] fought to protect [[Orbital Defense Generator Facility A-331|ODG A-331]] from [[Covenant]] forces.
| |
| | |
| ====Part 1 - Breakpoint====
| |
| The radio is located on the floor, next to the control panel near the window, in "Research Station".

| *'''[[Bravo 001]]''': "Mayday, mayday! This is Bravo zero-zero-one, en route to your position. Do you have a visual on my aircraft, over?"
| |
|
| |
|
| *'''[[Golden Arrow]]''': "Bravo zero-zero-one, this is Golden Arrow. I do believe you were steering that bird in the wrong direction, over." | | *'''[1]''': Do you think the [[UNSC Army|Army]] showing up in [[Pálháza]] is connected to the [[Visegrad Relay|Visegrad hub]] going down? |
| | |
| | *'''[2]''': Well, newsfeed says it was (in their defense?). But if you're going to make a statement, why hit a remote place like Visegrad? |
| | |
| | *'''[1]''': You think it was UNSC goons? Like, maybe they found out the [[United Rebel Front|URF]] was running a pirate station out of the Visegrad hub? |
| | |
| | *'''[2]''': If that was the case, why blame the outage on an Innie success? Why not apologize for a temporary outage and play up the futility of resistance? |
|
| |
|
| *'''Bravo 001''': "Negative, Golden Arrow - I'm flying blind! You need to point me in the direction of the LZ." | | *'''[1]''': Well, what do you think it is, then? If it ain't the Innies, and the UNSC is spinning it... |
|
| |
|
| *'''Golden Arrow''': "You got it, Bravo zero-zero-one; happy to oblige. Link up with Uniform Delta one-zero-one-five-three-niner-niner-zero, heading south-southwest. Slips about one-zero-zero knots. Advise you head for the treetops and fly straight at [[Mount Törött]]. We got more of them problems of our own down here." | | *'''[2]''': Nah, brother, don't say it. |
|
| |
|
| *'''Bravo 001''': "I say again: ''that's a negative'', Golden Arrow. I've got [[SPARTAN-II Program|high value assets]] in tow and strict orders to drop them directly on your location, my bird ain't going to hold together all way to the [[Asźod ship breaking yards|boneyard]]. Need an LZ clear, over." | | *'''[1]''': I'm just saying we should be prepared for the worst, is all. We should— |
|
| |
|
| *'''Golden Arrow''': "With respect, Bravo - unless you have a cartful of [[Fury tactical nuclear weapon|tac-nukes]] with my name on it, you don't have anything of value in that bird. Get your ass to evac." | | *'''[2]''': So you think the next logical explanation is Covenant invasion? Those guys blow up planets, not shut down local carrier hubs. |
|
| |
|
| *'''Bravo 001''': "All right, Golden Arrow. If I can't set her down, I'll just drop these big Spartans on your head, out." | | *'''[1]''': Visegrad isn't ''just'' a local carrier hub, though. It's one of the three hubs that connects the northern (oilfields ?) with the main complex down south, and thus the rest of the colonies. |
|
| |
|
| *'''Golden Arrow''': "Well, why didn't you say so? Come down close to the tree line at 2.3 klicks west of your current position. That's where me and my boys are, over." | | *'''[2]''': Okay... |
|
| |
|
| *'''Bravo 001''': "I'm gonna need that LZ cleared, Golden Arrow; I'm gonna be right on top of you in three mikes." | | *'''[1]''': I'm saying this is either a very ballsy and strategically sound move on the part of the Innies, and we're in the middle of a ''coup d'etat''... |
|
| |
|
| *'''Golden Arrow''': "Hell, I'm gonna clear you a spot myself, Bravo. Look for the trooper with big-ass grin on his face." | | *'''[2]''': Or? |
|
| |
|
| *'''Bravo 001''': "Roger that, I'll see you. Out." | | *'''[1]''': Or the [[Covenant Empire|Covenant]]'s here and it's already too late. |

|

| *'''[[Lieutenant]] [[Buckman]]''': "Gamma-One, [[Orbital Defense Generator Facility A-412|Facility Alpha 412]] is overrun, and I'm heading to your location with what's left of Gamma-Five, over."
| |
|
| |
|
| *'''Chapman''': "Gamma-Five? damn, it's good to hear you. How many are you bringing? I thought [[UNSC battle network|bee-net]] said your house got knocked down." | | *'''Gamma 1''': This is nuts. What in the hell are those autoturrets supposed to do against what they're bringin'? Over. |
|
| |
|
| *'''Buckman''': "Confirm. [[Orbital Defense Generator Facility A-412|ODG-412]] is slag. Lost all but fourteen able bodies. Making our way over in two 'Hogs and a radio van." | | *'''[[Red Team|Beta Red]]''': Divide their attention. |
|
| |
|
| *'''Chapman''': "The more the merrier. Looks like we got makin's for a party. Some honest-to-god Spartans are ridin' up here with some boys from [[Third Mechanized|Third Mech]] as we speak." | | *'''Beta Red''': Visual. Thirty-two [[Wraith]]s moving with two hundred sixty infantry at two hundred meters, closing on our lines due west at six kilometers per hour. Beta Red, hold position until I trigger primaries, then close on their front line as fast as you can. |
|
| |
|
| *'''Buckman''': "Hate to break it to you, Gamma-One, but Covie's hit us with two divisions at Alpha-412. How many Spartans you got on approach?" | | *'''Gamma 1''': Dammit, Red, I heard you [[SPARTAN-II|Spartans]] were crazy. Gamma 5, radio check over. |
|
| |
|
| *'''Chapman''': "Gamma-Five, say again? That was two divisions, over?" | | *'''Gamma 5''': Five by five, Gamma 1 Actual. Drone's holding station at over ten thousand feet. We got eyes on the whole damn thing. |
|
| |
|
| *'''Buckman''': "That's affirmative. We put a dent in 'em, but that's about it. The only reason I ain't one of them on the line with you right now is [[UNSC High Command|HighCom]] decided to drop every available asset right on top of 'em, and us. Over." | | *'''Gamma 1''': Those Spartans ''are'' crazy, they're gonna get us killed. |
|
| |
|
| *'''Chapman''': "Well, I hope you're bringing extra ammo then, Gamma-Five." | | *'''Gamma 5''': Holy...! <static> You're ain't gonna believe this! Beta Red just punched right up into the guts of that Covie column! Ever see a Spartan go hand to hand with a Wraith? Unbelievable! |
|
| |
|
| *'''Buckman''': "All we could carry and then some. ETA twenty-five mikes, out." | | *'''Gamma 1''': What are eleven Spartans gonna do against thirty thousand Covenant? They're dead men. |

| ====Part 4 - Countdown====
| | *'''Gamma 5''': Can't argue that, but those Spartans just bought us some time! We might just make it outta this alive! Get ready to move, over! |

|
| |
|
| *'''Chapman''': "With respect, Red - we might not be Spartans, but this is our home. My men will die here if I ask them to."

|

We put a dent in 'em, but that's about it. The only reason I ain't one of them on the line with you right now is [[UNSC High Command|HighCom]] decided to drop every available asset right on top of em, and us. Over. |

| *'''Joe''': "I swear, you're pathological about entering places through their [[Wikipedia:HVAC|HVAC systems]]."
| |
|
| |
|
| *'''Unknown''': "Ha ha ha." | | *'''Gamma 1''': Gamma 5, holy crap, [[Buckman]], d'you see that? |
|
| |
|
| *'''Joe''': "There's still three friendlies registering with the security system." | | *'''Gamma 5''': See it? Felt that in my damn chest. Whoever pulled that trigger wanted those sons-of-bitches dead. |
|
| |
|
| *'''Unknown''': "Yeah. They got names?" | | *'''Gamma 1''': Can't believe we just walked outta that crater. We gotta be the two luckiest bastards on this whole planet. |
|
| |
|
| *'''Joe''': "Kinda. Chump One, Chump Two, and [[Catherine Halsey|Dr. Catherine Elizabeth Halsey, Ph.D]]." | | *'''Gamma 5''': Luck ain't got nothing to do with it, [[Jake Chapman|Jake]]. |
|
| |
|
| *'''Unknown''': "Crap. You got lifesigns, or...?" | | *'''Gamma 1''': Think anybody could have survived that? |
|
| |
|
| *'''Joe''': "I got a bunch of noise, is what I got." | | *'''Gamma 5''': You mean Beta Red? They say Spartans never die, but I don't think anything lived through that. |
|
| |
|
| *'''Unknown''': "Yeah?" | | *'''Gamma 1''': Damn, whole lotta real estate burning down there. Won't be much left once this is all said and done. |

| |

| *'''Joe''': "What I don't have is her exiting through a secure checkpoint." | | *'''Gamma 5''': Here we are, hightailing it to anywhere else. Doesn't seem right. |
|
| |
|
| *'''Unknown''': "So it may just be her badge, right?" | | *'''Gamma 1''': Well, pretty soon won't ''be'' any place else to run to. What's next, [[Earth]]? |

| |
|
| *'''Joe''': "And if she's actually down there?" | | *'''Gamma 5''': Jake, anyone tell you you talk too damn much? |
|
| |
|
| *'''Unknown''': "Gotta figure she's either dead, or is refusing to leave her most recent pet project." | | *'''Gamma 1''': All the time. What the hell else was there to do on Reach besides chase pioneer girls? |
|
| |
|
| *'''Joe''': "Well I ain't carrying her narrow ass outta here." | | *'''Gamma 5''': Now there's nothing. Now there's nothing at all. Five out. |

|
| *'''Joe''': "Yeah?"
| | ===Courtyard=== |
| | The firefight map, [[Courtyard]], contains a conversation between two UNSC personnel, "[[Dragon X-ray]]" and "[[Blue-Delta]]".<ref>[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H82rzf1LmSc '''Youtube''': ''Overlook Radio Conversations'']</ref> The conversation can be heard from a radio that is located at the bottom of the ramp that leads out of Sword Base (area labeled 'Bend'), to the west side of the exit on a concrete ledge. |
|
| |
|
| *'''Unknown''': "If she's alive, I say whoever finds her puts two in her head, tosses the body in a rigid container of [[thermite grenade|thermite 'nades]] and pulls the pin. You ain't even pulling recognizable teeth out of that mess. Clean."
| | Dragon X-ray is the radioman of an unidentified UNSC ground asset radios in Blue-Delta, who appears to be associated with [[UNSC High Command|HIGHCOM]]. Blue-Delta warns X-ray that his unit is the only UNSC asset in the area, meaning that any support will take time to arrive. |
|
| |
|
| *'''Joe''': "Harsh. We could just strap her to one of these [[Fury tactical nuclear weapon|Mike Foxtrot Delta Deltas]]."
| | X-ray is unable to hear Blue-Delta's response due to [[Covenant Empire|enemy]] movement, to which Blue-Delta warns him again. X-ray acknowledges receiving the warning and reports movement again and requests for support to "soften them up". After being asked for the location of the enemy forces, Dragon X-ray responds and gives him the grid co-ordinates. |
|
| |
|
| *'''Unknown''': "Sounds like we got a plan."
| | Requesting for support again, Blue-Delta tells Dragon X-ray that there is no available support in any way apart from the {{UNSCship|Aegis Fate}}. Inquiring over whether the ''Aegis Fate'' is a space-borne or an ocean-borne vessel ("Exo" or "Wet Navy"). Blue-Delta answers that the ''Aegis Fate'' is 'currently' a [[UNSC Frigate|Frigate]]-designated "Exo-asset". Dragon X-ray receives this information, and says they did not require that much assistance. |
|
| |
|
| [loops] | | The conversation ends when Dragon X-ray reports being less than a [[klick]] away from the objective. Blue-Delta wishes him good luck. |

| ====Outpost====
| |
| The radio is located in the small lookout building to the east of the anti-air batteries. (In the area labeled "Central Fire Zone".)

| *'''Joe''': "[[Catherine Halsey|Charlie Hotel]]!"
| | '''Dragon X-ray''': "Blue Delta, this is Dragon X-ray. We are on the ground and three Mikes out from the objective. Over." |
| | |
| *'''Unknown''': "For Pete's sake."
| |
| | |
| *'''Joe''': "What?"
| |
| | |
| *'''Unknown''': "You really love the idea that you're deep in the cloak-and-dagger BS, don't you? This is not a clandestine meeting, Joe, we're pulling everyone out because the planet is burning."
| |
| | |
| *'''Joe''': "Oh my god..."
| |
| | |
| *'''Unknown''': "If it'll help keep your mind off it, you can tell me what you've got."
| |
| | |
| *'''Joe''': "Halsey's new pet project, [[Cortana|this new AI]]. It's a generational leap - I'm not even sure that's strong enough language."
| |
| | |
| *'''Unknown''': "So it's a pretty big deal, huh? Any idea who the donor was?"
| |
| | |
| *'''Joe''': "Just showed up one day. A couple of months after one of the annexes in Omega Wing was quarantined. Is that cloak-and-dagger enough for ya?"
| |
| | |
| *'''Unknown''': "Ha ha."
| |
| | |
| *'''Joe''': "And typical of her work ethic, she's given it total access to everything. It can bi-locate as well."
| |
| | |
| *'''Unknown''': "What do you mean?"
| |
| | |
| *'''Joe''': "It can be in multiple places at the same time. Maybe multi-locate would be a more accurate term."
| |
| | |
| *'''Unknown''': "Like a waldo? What use is-"
| |
|
| |
|
| *'''Joe''': "No, as a duplicate - capable of independent action. I've never seen it work in concert with itself, so I'm not sure if there's some technical issue with that, or..."
| | '''Blue-Delta''': "Dragon X-ray, be advised that you are the only UNSC ground asset in that grid." |
| | ----- |
| | '''Dragon X-ray''': "Say again, Blue Delta. We've got movement due east. That should be strike red. Over." |
|
| |
|
| *'''Unknown''': "So maybe a safety issue? Or, just, you never saw it happen."
| | '''Blue-Delta''': "That's a negative, Dragon X-ray. I say again; be advised that you are the only UNSC asset in that area." |
| | ----- |
| | '''Dragon X-ray''': "Roger, Blue Delta. We're picking up that movement again due east. You got something to soften it up?" |
|
| |
|
| *'''Joe''': "Technical issue. Something that would make doing it impossible. A safety issue wouldn't stop Halsey."
| | '''Blue-Delta''': "You got a location, Dragon X-ray?" |
| | ----- |
| | '''Dragon X-ray''': "Grid as follows: Whiskey-Delta-One-Five-Seven-Four-One-Seven-One-Two, Over." |
|
| |
|
| *'''Unknown''': "Yeah, I guess not. You know what, let's get the hell outta here.
| | '''Blue-Delta''': "I copy Whiskey-Delta-One-Five-Seven-Four-One-Seven-One-Two." |
| | ----- |
| | '''Dragon X-ray''': "That is correct. Request immediate support from any assets on-station. Over." |
|
| |
|
| *'''Joe''': "Isn't that what we were doing?
| | '''Blue-Delta''': "Dragon X-ray, it looks like all I've got available at this time is the UNSC ''Aegis Fate''." |
| | ----- |
| | '''Dragon X-ray''': "Blue Delta, is the ''Aegis Fate'' 'wet Navy'?" |
|
| |
|
| *'''Unknown''': "Sure, let's just keep moving.
| | '''Blue-Delta''': "Negative, Dragon. She's currently listed as an exo-asset; a frigate." |
| | ----- |
| | '''Dragon X-ray''': "Whoa! We are less than a klick from the target area, Blue Delta. We ain't that desperate for help." |
|
| |
|

| |
| | |
| *'''[2]''': Dammit, he's been spending so much time with the Doc, it does seem like the perfect time for tricks and treats.

| | Well, cousins, the gig is finally up. As an indication of how serious this is, I'm broadcasting to you over an open, unencrypted channel. |
| | |
| | Once I'm done, I'm gonna loop it and split. There's no sense sticking around here yapping any longer than's neccessary. |
|
| |
|
| *'''[[Blue-Delta]]''': "Dragon X-ray, be advised that you are the only UNSC ground asset in that grid."
| | I saw a for sale sign go up in the front yard of your dad's place, but your older brother didn't put it there. Some out of towners might have. |
| ----
| |
| *'''Dragon X-ray''': "Say again, Blue-Delta. We've got movement due east. That should be Strike Red, over."
| |
|
| |
|
| *'''Blue-Delta''': "That's a negative, Dragon X-ray. I say again; be advised that you are the only UNSC asset in that area."
| | What house can we go to now? There's nothing but absolute destruction. These folks don't do things by half-measures. |
| ----
| |
| *'''Dragon X-ray''': "Roger, Blue-Delta. We're picking up that movement again due east. You got something to soften it up?"
| |
|
| |
|
| *'''Blue-Delta''': "You got a location, Dragon X-ray?"
| | They aim to kill us all, burn our cities and leave [[Reach]] as one more burned-out rock spinning in the darkness. |
| ----
| |
| *'''Dragon X-ray''': "Grid as follows: Whiskey-Delta one-five-seven-four-one-seven-one-two, over."
| |
|
| |
|
| *'''Blue-Delta''': "Roger, I copy: Whiskey-Delta one-five-seven-four-one-seven-one-two."
| | And they're gonna do it too. Nothing you or me can do to stop them. They've done it plenty of times before. |
| ----
| |
| *'''Dragon X-ray''': "That's correct. Request immediate support from any assets on-station."
| |
|
| |
|
| *'''Blue-Delta''': "Dragon X-ray, it looks like all I've got available at this time is the {{UNSCShip|Aegis Fate}}."
| | They've bloodied our noses at [[Harvest]], at [[Madrigal]], at [[Miridem]], but this time it's gonna cost them. This time they're gonna jerk back a bloody stump. |
| ----
| |
| *'''Dragon X-ray''': "Blue-Delta, is the ''Aegis Fate'' 'wet Navy'?"
| |
|
| |
|
| *'''Blue-Delta''': "Negative, Dragon. She's currently listed as an exo-asset; a [[UNSC frigate|frigate]]."
| | There's no two ways about this. It's gonna be a nightmare. The heavens are gonna burn, and the earth is going to tremble beneath our feet. |
| ----
| |
| *'''Dragon X-ray''': "Whoa! We are less than a klick from the target area, Blue-Delta. We ain't that desperate for help."
| |
|
| |
|
| *'''Blue-Delta''': "Understood, Dragon X-ray. Give 'em hell out there, and good luck, out."
| | They're gonna rain death and destruction upon our heads, but we're not gonna give up a single damn inch of dirt without a fight. |

| *'''[1]''': "What I tell ya? Reach ain't no place for no self-respecting marine to spend any amount of time."
| | [1] [[Catherine Elizabeth Halsey|Charlie Hotel]]! |
| | |
| *'''[2]''': "Hey, we ain't in the ''[[UNSC Pillar of Autumn|Autumn]]'' yet, pal."
| |
| | |
| *'''[1]''': "So, uh..."
| |
| | |
| *'''[2]''': "Come on, spit it out."
| |
| | |
| *'''[1]''': "You, uh, got a zombie plan?"
| |
| | |
| *'''[2]''': "Hell yeah."
| |
|
| |
|
| *'''[1]''': "Yeah? Maybe we could exchange notes."
| | [2] For Pete's sake. |
|
| |
|
| *'''[2]''': "Well, uh, I dunno man. Zombie plans are kinda...deeply personal things with me."
| | [1] What? |
|
| |
|
| *'''[1]''': "Well, I'm just saying, it's just... I got all these things in my mind, you know, and getting 'em out in the open really helps reveal any flaws they might have."
| | [2] You really love the idea that you're deep in the cloak and dagger BS, don't you? This isn't a clandestine meeting, Joe, we're pulling everyone out because the planet is burning. |
|
| |
|
| *'''[2]''': "Makes sense."
| | [1] Oh, my god. |
|
| |
|
| *'''[1]''': "Okay."
| | [2] If it'll help keep your mind off it, you can tell me what you've got. |
|
| |
|
| *'''[2]''': "Huh. So, zombies can still hear and stuff, so that makes guns a weapon of last resort, right?"
| | [1] Halsey's new pet project, [[Cortana|this new AI]]. It's a generational leap - I'm not even sure that's strong enough language. |
|
| |
|
| *'''[1]''': "Yeah, yeah. Guns all fire ammo, too."
| | [2] So it's a pretty big deal, huh? Any idea who the donor was? |
|
| |
|
| *'''[2]''': "Exactly. So I was thinking that, hey, what is a weapon that'll keep them out of grabbing range, AND won't run out of ammo? A spear."
| | [1] Just showed up one day. A couple months after one of the annexes in Omega Wing was quarantined. Is that cloak and dagger enough for ya? |
|
| |
|
| *'''[1]''': "Hold up."
| | [2] |
|
| |
|
| *'''[2]''': "What?"
| | [1] And typical of her work ethic, she's given total access to everything. It can bi-locate as well. |
|
| |
|
| *'''[1]''': "Now, see, this is workin' already."
| | [2] What do you mean? |
|
| |
|
| *'''[2]''': "Huh?"
| | [1] It can be in multiple places at the same time. Maybe multi-locate would be a more accurate term. |
|
| |
|
| *'''[1]''': "Spear! I thought so too at one time, but the possibility of getting it stuck in the brainpan of a walking corpse is very real."
| | [2] Like a waldo? What use is - |
|
| |
|
| *'''[2]''': "Oh yeah, you're right. Man, I hadn't thought about that. Well, uh..."
| | [1] No, as a duplicate - capable of independent action. I've never seen it work in concert with itself, so I'm not sure if there's some technical issue with that, or... |
|
| |
|
| *'''[1]''': "Ball-peen hammer."
| | [2] So maybe a safety issue? Or, just, you never saw it happen. |
|
| |
|
| *'''[2]''': "But, you'd have to get right up on top of the zombie to use it, man."
| | [1] Technical issue. Something that would make doing it impossible. A safety issue wouldn't stop Halsey. |
|
| |
|
| *'''[1]''': "Yeah, so if I'm the one running around killing zombies, man?"
| | [2] Yeah, I guess not. You know what, let's get the hell outta here. |
|
| |
|
| *'''[2]''': "What?"
| |
|
| |
|
| *'''[1]''': "A single charged blow to the head would drop most zombies. It'd work on cheetahs, too."
| | [1] Isn't that what we were doing? |
|
| |
|
| *'''[2]''': "What the... There aren't cheetahs on Reach. Anyway, we should probably be working the kinks out of our alien invasion plan first. Aliens are smarter, faster, and more technically advanced than zombies. They're also here. Zombies, not so much."
| | [2] Sure, let's just keep moving. |

|
| |
|
| *'''[1]''': "Do you think the [[UNSC Army|Army]] showing up in [[Pálháza]] is connected to the [[Visegrád Relay|Visegrad hub]] going down?"
| | [2] |
| | |
| *'''[2]''': "Well, newsfeed says it was Insurrectionists. But if you're looking to make a statement, why hit a remote place like Visegrad?"
| |
|
| |
|
| *'''[1]''': "You think it was UNSC goons? Like, maybe they found out the [[Insurrectionist#Trivia|URF]] was running a pirate station out of the Visegrad hub?"
| | [1] There's still three friendlies registering with the security system. |
|
| |
|
| *'''[2]''': "If that was the case, why blame the outage on an Innie success? Why not apologize for a temporary outage and play up the futility of resistance?"
| | [2] Yeah. They got names? |
|
| |
|
| *'''[1]''': "Well, what do you think it is, then? If it ain't the Innies, and the UNSC isn't spinning it..."
| | [1] Kinda. Chump One, Chump Two, and [[Catherine Elizabeth Halsey|Dr. Catherine Elizabeth Halsey, Ph.D]]. |
|
| |
|
| *'''[2]''': "Nah, brother, don't even say it."
| | [2] You got lifesigns, or? |
|
| |
|
| *'''[1]''': I'm just saying we should be prepared for the worst, is all. We should—"
| | [1] I got a bunch of noise, is what I got. |
|
| |
|
| *'''[2]''': "So you think the next logical step here is ''Covenant invasion''? Those guys blow up planets, not shut down local carrier hubs."
| | [2] Yeah? |
|
| |
|
| *'''[1]''': "Visegrad isn't ''just'' a [[Communication relay|local carrier hub]], though. It's one of the three hubs that connects the northern Alföld with the main complex down south, and thus the rest of the colonies."
| | [1] What I don't have is her exiting through a secure checkpoint. |
|
| |
|
| *'''[2]''': "Okay..."
| | [2] So it may just be her badge, right? |
|
| |
|
| *'''[1]''': "I'm saying this is either a very ballsy and strategically-sound move on the Innies part, and we are in the middle of a ''coup d'etat''..."
| | [1] And if she's actually down there? |
|
| |
|
| *'''[2]''': "Or?"
| | [2] She's either dead, or is refusing to leave her most recent pet project. |
|
| |
|
| *'''[1]''': "Or the [[Covenant Empire|Covenant]] is here and it's already too late."
| | [1] I'm not carrying her narrow ass outta here. |

|
| *'''Revis''': "Well... Not "us" us, right?"
| | [2] If she's alive, I say whoever finds her puts two in her head, then dumps the body in a rigid container of thermite 'nades and pulls the pin. See if they pull any recognizable teeth out of that mess. |
|
