| ==Introduction==
| | {{Level|HSA}} |
| With the [[Merg Vol's Covenant|Covenant]] defeated, the [[United Nations Space Command|UNSC]] exodus from [[Draetheus V|Draetheus-V]] seemed complete. The first sign that something else was happening came in reports of low frequency static. UNSC analysts quickly identified the noise as a looping string of [[Forerunner]] code. Something was still active on Draetheus-V's moon, and it seemed to be calling out for attention.
| |
| | |
| Spartan Sarah Palmer returned to the surface of X50. Draetheus-V's moon to discover the UNSC was not the only one answering the bizarre Forerunner call. The Covenant had returned as well. They believed one of their gods were speaking to them and they were adamant that the humans would not intercept the message.

| ==Trivia==
| |
| ===Strategy===
| |
| *After landing, the player should clear out the immediate area of Covenant and head for the Tyrant on the left, using grenades to take out the {{Pattern|Kewu Umppi'pa'|citadel turret}}. After clearing out the immediate danger around the Tyrant, blow open the door. Destroying it requires simply entering the weapon at which point Palmer will automatically take care of it.
| |
| *Make you way to the second Tyrant while being careful of Covenant troops, particularly several [[Jiralhanae Jumper]]s. Once the area is relatively clear, including from a second citadel turret, perform the same action to destroy the Tyrant.
| |
| *Once the Tyrant's are destroyed, hunt down the remaining Covenant, including a {{Pattern|Zurdo|Wraith}} entering from the far right of the second Tyrant.
