"You've got a communication device in your ear," said Lightspeed. "You'll have to get rid of that."
"I can't do that until I get an explanation for why I'm needed," said Aldrich. He raised his hand and pointed up, not to the Dominion, but far beyond, to the Halo carrier. "And why the Panopticon's Halo carrier is watching from up there."
