[Data-File.exo_name:|Odin-1|Protocol name/number:Cavalry43\
Events: 5 minutes before the Rasputin Permafrost event, 9 hours into the Red War.
————————————————————————————————————
Odin rushed down the hall towards the Warsat launch silo. He had told Rasputin to use a Warsat as an escape pod. From there he would be sent to the Ishtar Collective Ruins on Venus.
“Prepare for launch in 5.... 4... 3.. 2. 1, launch executed!”
The Warsat shot upward with an extremely noticeable increase in speed and in pressure.
————————————————————————————————————
The Warsat reached Venus in 5 hours, it crashed into the Ishtar Collective square plaza, leaving a noticeable crater in its wake. Odin was dazed from the impact, his mind was blank. Then he heard a noise coming from outside the Warsat. Something was cutting open the frame of the Warsat. The frame then fell to the floor with a deafening thud.
————————————————————————————————————
What Odin saw was a drone, something was familiar about this one in particular though he could not remember why. The drone hovered near him, and then it spoke.
“Hello, Odin-2, I am your ghost. I was assigned to you by Rasputin himself.” It said.
“Where are we, what is a ghost, and who is Rasputin?” Odin spoke with a thick Norse accent, he could also speak fluent Norwegian.
“We are on Venus, and a ghost is something that can resurrect you, Rasputin is Warmind. Warminds were made to defend humanity from extraterrestrial threats. Now is that better?” The ghost said.
“Yes, that is better, now do you have a name?” Odin asked the ghost.
“Yes, my name is Seraphim.” The ghost replied.
————————————————————————————————————
Odin and Seraphim stepped out of the Warsat, Odin’s eyes glowed in what could have been said to be moonlight. They continued onwards, past old ruins and Vex constructs, until they reached the Vault of Glass. When they got close to the Vault entrance a Gate Lord appeared to defend the Vault.
————————————————————————————————————
Odin ducked out of the way of the Gate Lord’s line of sight. Seraphim transmattted a gun beside the Titan. Odin picked up the gun, it was an auto-rifle, IKELOS protocol. He ran towards the Gate Lord and slid past it, taking shots at both of it’s legs. The Gate Lord was crippled, it knelt down on one knee, Odin immediately climbed it and began to fill its eye socket with shotgun shells. He then threw a small hammer at the Radiolaria core on the Gate Lord’s chest. The Vex fell to the ground with a deafening roar. Odin and Valor then continued onwards towards the landing site where Valor was sent out from.
————————————————————————————————————
“Here we are.” Seraphim said
“This, is the Bifrost!” He continued, as he flew over towards the shuttle.
The Bifrost had armaments from Rasputin on it, the armaments glowed with the energy of the Warmind. Odin and Valor transmatted themselves inside of the Bifrost. The central terminus, as well as the rest of the shuttle, was themed around Rasputin and the design of Warminds. Seraphim inputted the coordinates for the Last City. The Bifrost started with a rumble and then sped off of Venus towards the City.

Interesting, the Vex don’t have a language. They speak through the network, much like us texting on here.
