After defeating the Covenant forces at the [[light bridge]] at the entrance to a series of caverns, Spartan Palmer entered a cave UNSC Command designated the Cistern. Palmer advanced forward, encountering and dispatching the large numbers of stealth Sangheili forces in the area. Deep within the Cistern she found the structure's entrance; large [[blast door]]s of Forerunner design, and from behind the doors, the origin of the signal. At this time, UNSC scientists decoded the first part of the Forerunner transmission, which was a single word: "Palmer." They warned the Spartan that the structure seemed to know her name.<ref>'''Halo: Spartan Assault''' - ''[[Mission 29: Infiltration of the Cistern|Infiltration of the Cistern]]''</ref>

Engineering equipment became increasingly unreliable while moving further into the Cistern. The Forerunner signal interfered with anything capable of picking it up. Engineering worked franticly to keep their equipment in running order, though Spartan Palmer's MJOLNIR armor was able to withstand the interference. Palmer followed the signal deeper into the caves, eventually to its very source. As she got closer, the Forerunner code rippled across her sensors, translating before her very eyes as "Palmer, help me."<ref>'''Halo: Spartan Assault''' - ''[[Mission 30: The Source|The Source]]''</ref> Palmer then discovered that the message had originated from her Spartan compatriot Davis, moments before his death. The structure had absorbed Davis' remains into a [[Durance|mysterious device]]. Palmer shut the device down in order to allow her friend to pass away peacefully.<ref name="hydra">'''Halo: Spartan Assault''' - ''[[Operation F: Hydra]]''</ref>
