=== BURIED AND FORGOTTEN ===

* '''Cortana''': "Put me in the console."

* '''Cortana''': "Negative, this is as close as I could get us. Hope you don't mind hoofing it a little."

''The Chief exits into a small valley, where [[Promethean Crawler|mechanical quadrupeds]] are crawling over the rocks. The nearby skyline is dominated by the pylon.''

* '''Cortana''': "From that peek under the hood, I'd say these constructs must be mimetic in nature."

''John arrives at a cliff edge. Knights are seen phasing away from the opposite rocks.''

* '''Cortana''': "Chief, we won't be able to contact ''Infinity'' if we don't get to that pylon and take it down."

----

''On the far side of the depression is a rocky path, which leads up to the exit; the second terminal lies below this path. After traversing another tunnel, John finally arrives at the pylon. The walkway leading to the top is blocked by hardlight shields.''

'''{''Cutscene''}'''

''John pulls out a metal shaft inside the console, reorients it to a horizontal position, then slams the cylinder back in. The beam emitter deactivates and retracts into the floor.''

=== ENEMY OF MY ENEMY ===

* '''Cortana''': "I was wondering why ''Infinity'' hadn't encountered the Covenant yet."

* '''Cortana''': "They've found the opening! We better get up to that relay, and fast!"

''John arrives at the second pylon. The area is occupied by Covenant infantry, supported by [[Type-26 Banshee|Banshees]] and Ghosts. John finds the first power core and disables it, liquidating the opposition along the way.''

=== ALMOST HOME ===

''A Phantom arrives and drops off an [[Unggoy]] lance, with one [[Kig-Yar Sniper]]. They are quickly disposed of.''

''John places his hands on each pillar.''

* '''Ur-Didact''': "Time was your ally, human. But now it has abandoned you. The [[Forerunner]]s... [[Post-Covenant War conflicts#Return of the Prometheans|have returned]]."

''The Ur-Didact summons his helmet, which assembles itself to resemble a glowing metal skull. John struggles futilely against his grip.''

''A portal opens near a rocky cliff, spitting out John's Ghost. The edge of the cliff is rapidly approaching.''

* '''John-117''': "Track its descent."

* '''Cortana''': "Marking. Impact predicted [[Seven|77.8]] kilometers due north."

**In the ''Master Chief Collection'' version of ''Halo 4'', the pickup animation of the Forerunner weapons will play in every level, but only if the player chooses the level in which they will play; if the player plays the campaign from the start, without losing progress, or choosing another level during the play, the animations won't play.
