Introduction

S.A.M.

Red Faction Command has transmitted out current orders. Cultist soldiers have fortified defensive platforms in the outlying areas surroudning the Terraformer. We are to gain access to the Orbital Bombardment Cannon and elimiate the threat. But the cannon's range is being interfered with by the storms. We will need to approach Danger Close range to activate the weapon. Darius, this mission could be classified as a suicide. Why did you accept it?

Darius

Why? Because I'm a Mason. It's what we do.

The glorious return is at hand, my brothers. Nothing can stand in our way.

That's Mallus' voice. We have to warn command! Command, this is Specialist Mason, do you copy?

The Cultists are jamming our communications.

Darius

Find a way around it, S.A.M.

Find Mason, and stop him. We have him cornered. Move in. Do not let him escape. No mistakes. Do you hear me? If he lives, it will be your head on a pike.
