She spoke up as she entered, just as Dr. Catherine Halsey finished congratulating the teenagers for recently proving the Covenant could be beat. Yao informed them that due to their demonstrated success, they were here now in order to prove themselves again. She had Nora, the shipboard A.I., display a map of the Alpha Corvi system and began to fill them in concerning a Covenant incursion on Alpha Corvi II that had begun just three hours prior. Dropships had landed on the colony's surface and its largest city, Jamshid, was under attack by ground forces.
