YOUR MESSAGE: I'm not too sure if this system is entirely secure, either, but it will have to do.

UNSC operatives PRIVATE LEONARD L. CHURCH and an unidentified soldier are present, but from what I know about their unit, this is most likely PRIVATE DEXTER GRIF. I've worked with them before.

They'll be of no help whatsoever, if you can't already tell.

YOUR MESSAGE: There's no need to be so hostile, is there.

I need you to tell me how the hell Church is here. Does he have a new body?
