''The AA Gun explodes, sending the weapon on top flying down the cliff. The [[Master Chief]] and 'Vadam stand on the cliff side of the crater on the hill of the recently destroyed anti-aircraft emplacement. Multiple squadrons of [[Longswords]] streak overhead, followed by three [[UNSC Frigates]], including the ''[[UNSC Forward Unto Dawn]]'', [[Lord Hood]]'s flagship. Lord Hood's attack begins. The [[Covenant]] fleet is hovering before them, with the [[Forerunner Dreadnought]] centered below them at the center of [[The Artifact]].''

''The [[UNSC]] frigates engage the Forerunner Dreadnought, [[Magnetic Accelerator Cannons]] discharging in volleys, and explosions coat the Dreadnought's surface, then clear, revealing not so much as a scorch mark. The [[Forerunner]] structure begins to open like a starfish, focusing energy on the Dreadnought, which fires off a beam of light. Everything soon blacks out.''

''A damaged [[CCS-class Battlecruiser]] emerges from [[Slipspace]] to the east of [[Voi]], and hurtles just over the [[Master Chief|Chief]] and 'Vadam. It is smoking with rancid fumes. The air takes on a darkened appearance, and smog rises, veiling the sun. As the ship loses altitude and crashes to the ground out of sight, there is a flash of light and a deep rumbling is heard, followed by silence. An omen of ancient evil is in the air.''
